PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, July 2 -- The University of Pennsylvania issued the following news:
By softening a cell's nucleus so that it can squeeze its way through dense connective tissues, a group of researchers believe they've demonstrated a new way to help the body efficiently repair injuries. The team of researchers tested this theory by using a medication to inhibit enzymes in the nucleus of knee's meniscus cells, which allowed the cells to move through environments that were . . .
