From silver nanofibers to smart, sensory-packed dressings, the next generation of wound-healing technology is blurring the ...

High levels of a molecule known as serpinB3 are known to be a reliable marker of serious diseases including inflammatory ...

The conserved IIS and TOR signalling network has a central role in metabolic homoeostasis, growth control, stress responses and ageing 1. Decreased activity of the network can extend lifespan, improve ...

THE healing wound is of perennial interest and fundamental importance to the surgeon. Despite continued study, however, knowledge to date consists largely of the factors that affect the well known ...

Despite advancements in treating wounds, the molecular mechanisms behind wound healing is not fully understood. Now, researchers at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), have identified a new ...

National Institutes of Health researchers have identified a novel role for a gene known as heat shock protein 60 (Hsp60), finding that it is critical in tissue regeneration and wound healing. The ...

Scientists have known for the last decade that a link exists between wound healing and cancer. Now scientists led by MIT Professor Robert Weinberg, a member of the Whitehead Institute, have discovered ...

When doctors detect elevated levels of SerpinB3 in a blood test, it can signal that something is seriously wrong, from ...

Wound healing is a highly specialized dynamic process for the repair of damaged/injured tissues through an intricate mechanism. Any failure in the normal wound healing process results in abnormal scar ...

Humans may not be able to regenerate limbs like zebrafish can regenerate fins, but improving the human ability to heal wounds with the same mechanisms that zebrafish incorporate could work. In fact, ...

Surgeons in the United States perform nearly 600,000 coronary artery stent procedures and bypass surgeries every year.
