Research and drug discovery are undergoing a transformation, driven by the rise of 3D cell culture models that better replicate human biology. Unlike traditional 2D cultures and animal models, which ...

Researchers have shown that activation of the protein YAP, known to help cancer cells survive treatment, behaves very differently in cell culture models depending on how they are grown in the lab, ...

3D cell cultures are no longer a futuristic idea. They’re already reshaping how we study diseases like cancer, offering more realistic models of how cells behave in the body. But despite their ...

University of Mississippi research offers hope that cancer drug therapies packaged in 3D-printed carriers could deliver medication directly to tumors while reducing many of the side effects that ...

Most cells in the human body exist in complex three-dimensional environments, yet they are still commonly studied on flat plastic dishes. These two-dimensional cultures distort cell behavior, limiting ...

AMSBIO (Oxford, UK) reports that researchers at the Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University (Japan) have cultured patient-derived colorectal cancer cells in 3D using their MatriMix 511 ...

Researchers in the lab of Cancer Center at Illinois (CCIL) member Xing Wang have discovered the influential role of ...

Growing cells in three dimensions is critical for studying how tissues behave in the body, yet most laboratory platforms remain either too simple or too complex to use widely. Researchers now present ...

By their nature, cancer cells have different nutritional needs than healthy cells. "Cancer cells have a distinct metabolism," said Gary Patti, the Michael and Tana Powell Professor of Chemistry at ...
