A new mouse model mimicking the liver symptoms of myotonic dystrophy type 1 -- the most prevalent form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy -- provides insight into why patients develop fatty liver ...
The liver has a unique structure, especially at the level of individual cells. Hepatocytes, the main liver cells, release bile into tiny channels called bile canaliculi, which drain into the bile duct ...
The effectiveness of non-clinical drug safety predictions is enhanced by the adoption of three-dimensional (3D) cellular models. 3D bioprinting enables the generation of complex models with spatial ...
More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. This condition can lead ...
Using human induced pluripotent stem cells, researchers have built a miniature 3D liver model that replicates the critical interaction between hepatocytes and stellate cells. As chronic liver disease ...
More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. This condition can lead ...
In a bid to gain further understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a team of researchers has created 3D bioprinted liver models. MASH, ...
More than 100 million people in the United States suffer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), characterized by a buildup of fat in the liver. This condition can lead ...
Human periportal assembloid, showcasing the three key cell types of the liver: portal fibroblasts (magenta), cholangiocytes (green), and hepatocyte nuclei (blue). All cell borders are delineated in ...
