The Mayo Clinic and biotech company National Resilience have announced a strategic collaboration in biomanufacturing to deliver novel biotherapeutics for rare and complex conditions, with a focus on therapies derived from biologics for use in medicines. Read More
Nanometric photodiodes can activate individual nerve cells
Italian researchers activated individual nerve cells with a light impulse and this targeted, noninvasive approach could be used for studies into the nervous system as well as to develop new therapies. Read More
Now metastasis can be observed with an assay
University College Dublin researchers have provided a new mechanism for observing cell migration with a high-throughput spheroid-based migration assay. The assay uses a tissue-mimicking, fibrillar collagen type I extracellular matrix. Read More
New material prevents retear of rotator cuff injuries
A University of Connecticut team has created a graphene/polymer matrix that can be embedded into the shoulder muscle and prevent retear injuries of the rotator cuff. Read More
Monocytes, not neutrophils, are key to skin wound repair
New research reveals monocytes alone are capable of facilitating faster healing of skin wounds, which runs counter to previous beliefs that neutrophils and monocytes both performed that function. Read More
New antibody neutralizes all known SARS-CoV-2 variants: study
An antibody developed at Boston Children’s Hospital neutralizes all known SARS-CoV-2 variants, including omicron subvariants, which may inform the design of future COVID-19 vaccines. Read More
Plant molecule that sops up iron-rich heme could potentially be used to treat human diseases
A peptide used by legumes to control nitrogen-fixing bacteria may also lead to potential treatments for patients with too much heme in their blood, according to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Read More
