A Cedars-Sinai study has identified a previously unknown role for astrocyte cells in how the brain responds to damage and ...

Cedars-Sinai investigators have discovered a healing mechanism that could one day be harnessed to help treat patients with ...

Researchers create a biomimetic model to study wound healing in burn and laceration wounds. The team designed an in vitro model system made of fibroblasts embedded in a collagen hydrogel. Wounds were ...

Cedars-Sinai investigators have discovered a healing mechanism that could one day be harnessed to help treat patients with spinal cord injuries, stroke, and neurological conditions such as multiple ...

Wound healing involves four stages: homeostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. The skin is the body's largest organ and is a barrier to germs, injury, chemicals, and ultraviolet (UV) ...

Injecting regulatory T cells or Tregs, which control the body’s immune responses, directly into damaged bone, muscle and skin significantly boosts healing, according to new research. The door is now ...

The innate immune response is known to impact early stages of wound repair, with the role of some sensory neurons, including nociceptors, established as immunoregulators. However, the extent of the ...

The skin and muscles frequently encounter injuries; while the skin forms a protective barrier against external insults, muscles can strain on stretching. 1,2 Both tissues possess an elaborate repair ...
