For over a decade, scientists have been growing organoids—small clusters of cells that mimic a particular organ—to serve as ...

A dysfunction in muscle blood vessels could be to blame for the weak muscles and weight loss that most cancer patients ...

Scientists from TU Wien and Keio University have developed a scalable method to create artificial blood vessels in ...

Miniature organs on a chip could allow us to do scientific studies with great precision, without having to resort to animal testing. The main problem, however, is that artificial tissue needs blood ...

Blood vessels are like big-city highways; full of curves, branches, merges, and congestion. Yet for years, lab models ...

Blood clots begin forming when a blood vessel is damaged and nearby cell fragments (called platelets) begin clumping together and adhering to a protein in the blood known as fibrin, explains Dr ...

In this study, researchers at Johannes Kepler University Linz found that fisetin, a natural substance found in fruits and vegetables, helps protect blood vessels from hardening, which is a common ...

Flavan-3-ols were also found to improve the function of the endothelium -- the inner lining of blood vessels -- which is crucial for overall cardiovascular health. This improvement occurred ...
