“When scaling up a process based on adherent cells, a biopharmaceutical manufacturer has two options. Either stay in 2D, resulting in the use of heavy and difficult-to-handle multi-tray stacks with a ...

Little is known about meibomian gland progenitor cells; however, repeated exposure to environmental stress, such as contact lens wear or ocular surface drying, may lead to a similar phenomenon to ...

That is why researchers have been seeking effective treatments for muscular atrophy. A promising avenue for this work is regenerative medicine, using stem cells to create and augment existing muscle.

More information: Sakiho Tanaka et al, In vitro immuno‐prevention of nitration/dysfunction of myogenic stem cell activator HGF, towards developing a strategy for age‐related muscle atrophy ...

In general, there were fewer remaining large ganglion cells in retinal areas with atrophy. In the perifoveal area, however, no consistent pattern of cell loss by size was found. Our estimates ...

The work is published in the journal Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology. Age-related muscular atrophy in skeletal muscle can have a devastating impact on people's quality of life ...

Meibomian glands are critical to the ocular health in that they secrete lipid-rich meibum, which protects the ocular surface ...

A recent study has shed new light on the role of fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) in muscle regeneration, fibrosis, and ...
