A recent paper describes how infusing biomaterial can potentially treat inflamed and injured tissue such as the brain, heart and lungs from the inside out. So, like the biomaterial used in this study, let me digest the key findings from this paper for you - starting with what these biomaterials are, how it was tested in the paper and look at how these findings can be therapeutically translated as regenerative medicines.
