The altered cells can be used to repair any organ. The entire process is non invasive and takes seconds to apply. For one mouse, they healed its leg, no blood was flowing through the mouse's leg. Scientists turned skin cells into vascular cells that worked to rebuild blood vessels in the wounded leg. A few weeks after the procedure the leg was back to normal.
The technology is called Tissue Nano Transfection. Researchers at Ohio State University put the tech into the chip. THe process hasn't been tested on humans yet. But researchers say it would work just as easily. Fixing everything from nerve damage to brain injuries. THey hope to start clinical trials with humans in 2018.
