Human blood vessels grown in the lab have successfully been added to circulatory systems in people. The blood vessels are grown from the recipient’s own tissue and could be used to replace arteries ...

Blood vessels created in the lab can successfully turn into "living tissue" in patients on dialysis for advanced kidney disease, a new study suggests. The results come from just 13 patients in an ...

The bio-engineered blood vessels are taken from a postnatal donor’s skin cells and then developed within a laboratory. The process creates vessel-like tubes, and these can be transferred into a ...

Humacyte (HUMA) is advancing the field of regenerative medicine with its lab-grown blood vessels, known as acellular tissue-engineered vessels (ATEVs), poised to transform treatment options for ...

Scientists have announced a breakthrough in medical technology with the ability to grow what they are calling perfect human blood vessels as organoids in a petri dish. An organoid is a 3D structure ...

Research published this week describes how lab-grown blood vessels were transformed into living tissue when grafted into dialysis patients needing replacement blood vessels. The recipients’ cells ...

Scientists have grown small blood vessel-like models in the lab and used them to show how damage to the scaffolding that supports these vessels can cause them to leak, leading to conditions such as ...

Stem cell researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) have successfully managed to grow human blood vessels in the lab. The finding could mark a giant leap forward in the fight against ...

Complex artificial organs could be created by 3D printing a mould of veins, arteries and capillaries in ice, casting that in organic material and then allowing the ice to melt away, resulting in a ...

Developers of a lab-grown blood vessel designed to save life and limb in emergency scenarios appear to be promoting its use in surgeries far beyond what the Food and Drug Administration has approved ...

Each year, about 185,000 people in the United States undergo amputation. Nearly half of those are due to injured blood vessels cutting off circulation to a limb. Surgeons can transplant an intact vein ...
