Northwestern University scientists have developed the most advanced organoid model for human spinal cord injury to date. In a ...

Neurites include axons, which are often severed during spinal cord injuries. When axons are cut, communication between ...

Cartilage cells generate more protein components (collagen II and aggrecan) for regeneration when treated with fast-moving dancing molecules (left) compared to slower moving molecules. In November ...

Northwestern University researchers almost three years ago introduced an injectable new therapy, which harnessed fast-moving “dancing molecules,” to repair tissues and reverse paralysis after severe ...

Two innovative new developments out of the same laboratory have demonstrated that degraded cartilage can be repaired and regrown, first by using "dancing molecules" to target the proteins needed for ...

Northwestern University researchers have found the second use for an injectable therapy using fast-moving "dancing molecules" to regenerate tissue rapidly, leading the biochemists group to hope ...

In patients with severe osteoarthritis, cartilage can wear so thin that joints essentially transform into bone on bone — without a cushion between. A new therapy that uses synthetic nanofibers to ...
