A tumor is more than its cancer cells. Immune cells, blood vessels and other surrounding tissue influence how a cancer grows and responds to treatment. Two tumors containing the same cell types can respond very differently to the same therapy depending on how those cells are arra

In a promising sign for the potential of focused sound waves to improve care for brain tumors, UVA Health researchers have determined that tumors called gliomas may be even more receptive to targeted drug delivery than normal brain tissue.

A traditional Japanese medicine used for obesity may do more than support weight loss. Researchers at the University of Osaka, working with Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., investigated whether Bofutsushosan could protect aging tissues from fibrosis—the excessive buildup of sc

Researchers at the UNC School of Medicine and UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center are zeroing in on less toxic and more targeted strategies to combat Ewing sarcoma, an aggressive and rare pediatric cancer that develops in the bones and soft tissues.

A massive analysis of immune cells in human tissue is yielding clues to the root causes of lung and autoimmune diseases.

A human kidney is built once, before birth, and the rules guiding its construction have been largely inferred from animal models. Researchers at Penn Medicine have now read those rules directly in human tissue. They found that developing cells are steered by soluble signals relea

Dr. Pijuan Yu sits at his lab station, focused on the task at hand. He is feeling for a lump. The glass wall to his right reveals other students and researchers as they pass, but his attention remains steady. Two rubbery samples simulating human neck tissue lie on a smooth black

Built by Paige and Microsoft, PRISM2 reads whole-slide images through a perceiver-based encoder trained jointly on tissue tiles and clinical dialogue drawn from pathology reports. The model aggregates thousands of tile embeddings per slide into one representation, then generates

When a heart attack damages the heart, the injured muscle is replaced by scar tissue. That scar can interfere with the electrical signals that coordinate each heartbeat, increasing the risk of dangerous rhythm disorders known as arrhythmias.

New research reveals that cells of the same chronological age can follow dramatically different biological aging paths, offering new insights into cancer, neurodegeneration and the fundamental biology of aging. Rather than aging uniformly, tissues become a mosaic of biologically

Rice University engineers have developed a new strategy for controlling how therapeutic peptides are released from gelatin-based materials, a step that could make the small but powerful molecules more useful in tissue engineering and drug delivery.

U.K. and U.S. scientists have uncovered an important piece of the puzzle in the signaling pathway that causes damaging scar tissue to build up in the body, raising hopes for future treatments. A team from the University of Manchester and University of Connecticut have revealed ho
