A Virus That Rebuilds Damaged Nerves
Genetically engineered viruses could form a scaffold for nerve cells.Researchers working on tissue engineering hope to eventually be able to use a patient's own cells to grow replacement tissue for damaged hearts, livers, and nerves.Some biological engineers are using scaffolds made of polymers to try to mimic the supportive matrix of real tissue.
