Introduction The opportunity to grow a human organ in a test

Introduction

The opportunity to grow a human organ in a test

tube and transplant it to a person in need of a transplant is a dream of transplant specialists. Scientists all over the world are working on this and have already learned how to make tissues, small working copies of organs, and we really have very little left before full-fledged spare eyes, lungs and kidneys.

Lungs Scientists from the University of Texas have grown human lungs

Lungs

Scientists from the University of Texas have grown human lungs in

a bioreactor. However, without blood vessels, such lungs are not functional. However, a team of scientists from Columbia University Medical Center recently obtained a functional lung with a perfused and healthy vascular system in ex vivo rodents for the first time in the world.

Heart muscle tissues

Bioengineers from the University of Michigan managed to grow

a piece of muscle tissue in a test tube. However, the heart from such a tissue will not be able to work fully yet, it is twice as weak as the original. Nevertheless, so far this is the strongest sample of cardiac tissue.

Skin

Scientists from the University of Zurich (Switzerland) and the University Children's

Hospital of this city for the first time managed to grow human skin permeated with blood and lymphatic vessels in the laboratory. The resulting skin flap is able to almost completely perform the function of healthy skin in case of burns, surgical defects or skin diseases.

Using stem cells, scientists have grown a human ear on the

back of a rat. The experiment was conducted by researchers from the University of Tokyo And Kyoto University under the leadership of Thomas Cervantes.
