Researchers tackle macular degeneration by regenerating retinal cells.
Nottingham Trent University researchers crafted 3D polymer nanofiber scaffolds for human retinal cell growth.
Using electrospinning, they produced thin, water-attracting scaffolds for cell growth.
Synthetic scaffolds enhance retinal cell growth and function for 150 days.
The research is promising for regenerative medicine, but biocompatibility with human tissue is a question.
