Long-term functional regeneration of radiation damaged salivary glands through delivery of a neurogenic hydrogel

This study shows that a neurogenic hydrogel can regenerate radiation-damaged salivary glands in mice, restoring saliva production over three months.

A synthetic tear protein resolves dry eye through promoting corneal nerve regeneration.

This paper shows that a synthetic tear protein, lacripep, repairs dry eye by restoring corneal nerves, even in the presence of inflammation.
