Keith Murphy, CEO of Viscient Biosciences, discusses the process of developing a 3D bioprinted tissue model and their potential in developing therapeutics for COVID-19 and other diseases.
The team found that the expression of the APOE4 gene variant in pericytes caused amyloid plaque formation in a blood-brain barrier model.
The latest generation of three-dimensional (3D) cell models offer new and exciting possibilities for pharmaceutical research. However, deciding how to capture sufficient information in the most efficient way from an experiment without making the data size overwhelming can prove challenging. Margaritha Mysior and Jeremy Simpson discuss the opportunities and challenges…

The stem cells in-depth focus includes articles on using computational approaches to expand the applications of stem cell therapies and how organoids could be used to speed up the drug discovery process with a focus on retinal disease.
The developers of a novel method to create immunological assay probes for screening T cells has leveraged their new protocol against COVID-19.
High-throughput screening of thousands of compounds has revealed several candidates, including lead compound ebselen, with the potential for treating COVID-19.
The developers of the lung epithelium model plan to investigate whether SARS-CoV-2 can infect and replicate in the model to assess whether it could be used in the fight against COVID-19.
Researchers have demonstrated that Nafamostat mesylate (Fusan) can inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein-initiated membrane fusion at concentrations likely achievable and safe in patients.
Researchers observed that deleting the IRE1-alpha gene caused beta cells to de-differentiate and then re-differentiate in mice, preventing immune system auto-activation.
Exposing umbilical cord blood to NOV proteins causes an increase in functional haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and could provide a more effective transplant option for blood cancer patients.
Researchers have developed a device which mimics how blinking and tear movement effect the cornea for use in testing ophthalmic drugs and ocular research.
The researchers hope their study into how cellular heterogeneity changes as the skin heals wounds will allow further research into pathological conditions that cause poor wound healing.
