Tissue Engineering: The Future of Surgery and Medicine The only thing worse than needing an organ? transplant is the waiting list. The average wait time for a heart transplant is four months and the wait time for a kidney extends to around five years. This issue is being addressed by scientist with the intention of changing the future. Tissue engineering is on the verge of becoming one of the most vital resources in medicine; it has a growing importance in organ and cartilage replacement and is

Plant Tissues A mature vascular plant (any plant other than mosses and liverworts)‚ contains several types of differentiated cells. These are grouped together in tissues. Some tissues contain only one type of cell. Some consist of several. Meristematic The main function of meristematic tissue is mitosis. The cells are small‚ thin-walled‚ with no central vacuole and no specialized features. Meristematic tissue is located in • the apical meristems at the growing points of roots and stems. • the

Myeloid tissue Is the bone marrow Why we discuss myeloid tissue/bone marrow? – because we want to study the development of blood cells. We called it HEMOPOEISIS/HEMATOPEISIS HEMOPEISIS/HEMATOPOEISIS –Blood cell formation (occurs in the bone group) Why study this? Because: there is a continuous replacement of cells they have short life span when they are in the peripheral circulation so‚ we have to study how these cells mature and differentiate Phases of hematopoeisis MESOBLASTIC PHASE
