How to Make an Ear

A new study from researchers at Harvard Medical School shows that the extracellular matrix can provide the driving force needed for tissue morphogenesis, challenging earlier studies that proposed motor proteins within cells drive tissue-structuring processes. The authors showed that hyaluronate pressure in combination with proteins that connect cells and direct the pressure generated through the swelling of hyaluronate in water, powers morphological change. The findings provide new insights for bioengineering, regenerative medicine, and basic biology.

Scientists Create First-of-its-Kind 3D Organoid Model of Human Pancreas

Date Time Scientists Create First-of-its-Kind 3D Organoid Model of Human Pancreas New Research Platform Will Shed Light on the Early Stages of Pancreatic Cancer and Could Open the Door to Life-Saving Screening Boston – This year, more than 60,000 adults in the United States will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and, statistically, as few as 10 percent will survive five years after diagnosis, according to the American Cancer Society. Because pancreatic cancer is hidden deep within the body and often symptomless, it’s frequently diagnosed after the disease has progressed too far for surgical intervention and/or has spread throughout the body. Research indicates that earlier detection of pancreatic tumors could quadruple survival rates; however, no validated and reliable tests for early detection of pancreatic cancer currently exist.

Scientists create first-of-its-kind 3D organoid model of the human pancreas

E-Mail Boston - This year, more than 60,000 adults in the United States will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and, statistically, as few as 10 percent will survive five years after diagnosis, according to the American Cancer Society. Because pancreatic cancer is hidden deep within the body and often symptomless, it s frequently diagnosed after the disease has progressed too far for surgical intervention and/or has spread throughout the body. Research indicates that earlier detection of pancreatic tumors could quadruple survival rates; however, no validated and reliable tests for early detection of pancreatic cancer currently exist. Now, researchers at the Cancer Research Institute at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) have successfully created the first three-dimensional (3D) organoid models of the pancreas from human stem cells. Unlike previous platforms for the study of pancreatic cancer, this first-of-its-kind organoid model includes both the acinar and ductal st
