Using skin and blood samples from scleroderma patients, the team grew lab-based skin: pinkish, pancake-like, little disks of ...

Consequently, 3D skin reconstruction models have recently become attractive preclinical testing tools for novel therapeutic approaches, especially 3D models that contain human MM cells. 12 However ...

The 3D photography technology allows health professionals to track new moles or any changes in size or color over time. As doctors, if there are changes we tend to err on the side of caution and ...

"In the next step, the 3D-printed models (skin imitations) will be used to test nanoparticles," says Karin Stana Kleinschek. "This is a success for the complementary research at TU Graz and VIT.

Scientists have 3D-printed hair follicles in human skin tissue cultured in the lab. This marks the first time researchers have used the technology to generate hair follicles, which play an ...
