A team of researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) has made significant strides in tissue engineering and cell therapy by leveraging the healing potential of bacteria. Under the leadership of Associate Professor Alireza Dolatshahi-Pirouz, the group has developed a new biopolymer with tissue-regeneration properties, offering promising advancements for muscle injury treatments. The key to their breakthrough lies in bacteria’s natural ability to produce beneficial compounds. By harnessing this ability, the team synthesized a new biopolymer known as Pantoan Methacrylate, or PAMA. T…
