On April 15, scientists at the University of Tel Aviv managed to print a tiny living heart with human tissues on a 3D printer. This is reported by the Jewish religious organization Chabad Lubavich Kyiv with reference to the press service of the educational institution on its Facebook page.
It is reported that Israeli scientists, using a 3D printer and human tissue taken from a patient, printed a whole, living heart (the size of a berry).
It is noted that it consists of the patient’s fat cells, which were transformed into stem cells of the cardiovascular muscle, and then mixed with connective tissue and placed in a 3D printer. The created heart at this stage may be suitable for the rabbit.
“In about a year, it will be possible to talk about the transplantation of 3D-printed hearts for rabbits and rats, and after another ten years, it is expected to “print” hearts directly in hospitals for patients, awaiting transplantation,” the report says.
As The Journalist reported, scientists from Singapore created an artificial self-repairing skin.
