An international team of researchers bioengineering human liver tissues uncovered previously unknown networks of genetic-molecular crosstalk that control the organ's developmental processes – greatly ...

Dr. Vadim Jucaud's lab at the Terasaki Institute has developed a vascularized liver tissueoid-on-a-chip (LToC) platform that ...

A new type of tissue model that more accurately mimics the architecture of the liver could help develop drugs to treat MASLD.

Ghent, 24 January 2025 – Our livers contain many different types of immune cells. New research by the team of Prof. Charlotte Scott (VIB-UGent Center for Inflammation Research) and colleagues now ...

A liver tissueoid-on-a-chip with functional blood vessels, diverse liver cells, and immune activity replicates transplant ...

Researchers created a mini “liver-on-a-chip.” Tiny clusters of liver cells (shown in magenta) are embedded within a network of blood vessels (green). The vessels can carry fluid, shown here with blue ...

The newly-discovered cells help shed light on how the liver repairs itself after damage. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

Cholesterol crystals in the liver may stiffen the organ early in those with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)—well before scarring develops—according to new research ...

Researchers from the Roger Williams Institute of Liver Studies at King's College London developed two 3D models from human tissue to understand the effects that a drug—a cyclophilin inhibitor—has on ...
