In a study publishing in the journal Cell Reports Physical...
New study reveals why HIV remains in human tissue even after antiretroviral therapy
by Tarwinder Rai, University of Alberta P2X1 is strongly expressed on CD73+CD8+ T cells and its inhibition partially restores the potential effects of ATP. (A) Representative histogram plots, and (B) cumulative data showing P2X1 expression in CD73-/CD73+ CD8+ T cells. (C) Representative histogram plots, and (D) cumulative data of CD73 expression with/without treatment with ATP (25 μM) and...
New hydrogel can repair tears in human tissue
by Valérie Geneux, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne The gel is injected directly into the tissue. Credit: Alain Herzog 2021 EPFL EPFL scientists have developed an injectable gel that can attach to various kinds of soft internal tissues and repair tears resulting from an accident or trauma. Our soft tissues can be torn during a ski...
