Hybrid micro-robot able to navigate in physiological environment, capture targeted damaged cells

by Tel Aviv University Hybrid micro-robot simulation. Credit: Tel Aviv University Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a hybrid micro-robot, the size of a single biological cell (about 10 microns across), that can be controlled and navigated using two different mechanisms—electric and magnetic. The micro-robot is able to navigate between different cells in a biological sample,...

RNA released from damaged cells acts as signal to initiate repair after injury

by  Monash University Graphical abstract. Credit: DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2021.07.021 New research from the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) at Monash University has identified novel cell types and RNA signals that may assist with brain and spinal cord repair. Tissues and organs have different capacities to regenerate after injury or disease. Identifying cell types and signals that can promote repair is particularly...
