🌱 New Discoveries in Hybrid Plant-Animal Cells: Could This Bring Us Closer to Overcoming Oxygenation Challenges in Tissue Engineering? 🌱 A recent study has introduced a fascinating breakthrough: hybrid cells that integrate plant and animal cell functions, potentially allowing for photosynthetic oxygen production within animal cells. For tissue engineering, where oxygenation in thick tissue constructs remains a major hurdle, this could hint at new directions in research. Yet, while promising, the leap from cellular-level oxygenation to fully functional, thick tissues is complex. Vascularization, stability, and nutrient distribution remain key challenges that go beyond this single advancement. Could innovations like these bring us closer to truly functional engineered tissues? Or are we still far from a viable solution? 👇 Share your insights below!
