D bioprinted nerve tissues offer new hope for ALS drug testing. Uppsala team creates motor neuron organoids from patient ...

D printers can be used to make organoids from a patient's cells that resemble human nerve tissue to test new amyotrophic lateral sclerosis treatments.

New nanobody-based method, POD-nAb/FT-GO 3D-IHC, enables ultra-fast, high-resolution labeling of neurons and glia deep within 1-mm-thick brain tissue, revealing cellular structures in just three days.

"It's important for research and drug testing to be able to print a large number of organoids in a reproducible way. Our method also makes it possible to include other types of nerve cells ...

With the aid of a 3D printer, researchers at Uppsala University have succeeded in creating a model that resembles human nerve tissue. The model, which can be cultured from the patient’s own ...

Motor neurons are nerve cells that control our muscles by sending signals from the brain and spinal cord out to the body. In diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), these cells are ...

A new, easily adopted, 3D-printed device will enable scientists to create models of human tissue with even greater control and complexity. An interdisciplinary group of researchers at the ...

Three-dimensional printing is transforming medical care, letting the health care field shift from mass-produced solutions to customized treatments tailored to each patient’s needs. For instance ...

However, the challenge remained: mimicking complex oriented structures, as found in the skin dermis or skull bone. The researchers found that using a technique that utilizes flow to orient these ...

This month, a team from the California Institute of Technology unveiled a system to 3D print tissues inside the body—no surgery needed. Dubbed deep tissue in vivo sound printing (DISP), the system ...

This allowed the team to record patterns of neuron activity in visual areas of the brain, covering a volume roughly the size of a grain of sand. Despite its small size, the tissue contained ...
