Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), engineers developed a new liver tissue model to help reveal the stages of liver regeneration in hopes to help those individuals with liver disease, ...
As chronic liver disease becomes more widespread, researchers at Science Tokyo have developed a lab-grown organoid that ...
The liver has a unique ability to regenerate after damage. However, it was unknown whether this ability decreases as we age. Scientists have now used a technique known as retrospective radiocarbon ...
Microfluidic chips that mimic human livers are better at predicting whether a drug is toxic to the liver than conventional animal models used in preclinical experimentations, claims a new study from ...
A human liver was "kept alive" for nearly three days at body temperature before being transplanted into a cancer patient in a world-first, doctors have revealed. The 62-year-old man, who also had ...
A human model of immune-driven liver injury Some drugs that pass early safety testing can still cause idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (iDILI)—a rare immune reaction that can lead to severe ...
Experimental transplant of gene-edited pig liver into human offers hope for new frontier of research
Doctors in China have become the first to report details about a transplant of a genetically modified pig liver into a human. The liver was transplanted last year into a person who was brain-dead, and ...
Surgeons have now published the first report of a gene-edited pig liver transplanted into a person. The liver, which came from a genetically modified pig, appeared to stay active, producing bile and ...
