 MEDICAL BIOLOGY: ON TISSUE ENGINEERING
Although this is not a new technology in clinical medicine, at least in the experimental sense, there have been important advances during the past 20 years, and the field of tissue engineering now has its own research centers, organizations, meetings, and journals.
A "bone autograft" (also called "autologous bone graft") is a transfer of a bone section from one place to another in the same individual, the process avoiding tissue rejection.
But on the global scale, structure is seen to emerge from long-range summation of these low-level behaviors.

 Connective tissue biology in Dupuytren's disease
Brandes et al (1994) have shown that the contracted fascia in patients treated with the continuous extension technique of Messina (1991, 1993) reacts to external forces with neoformation and reorientation of all tissue components to such an extent that nodules and cords are no longer clinically recognisable.
It could thus be possible that Dupuytren's disease arises not as pathological disorder but rather as the consequence of normal adaptive responses to applied stimuli to one or the other part of the fascia (Flint, 1990).
The analysis of the histological, biochemical and metabolical mechanism brought into play in the development of the disease shows indeed that most of them are non specific responses common to the different forms of connective tissue (Flint, 1990).

 Autoimmunity/Connective Tissue Biology Training Grant at Dartmouth Medical School
In addition, it is clear that a component of the inflammatory response involves changes in tissue oxygen tension, altered vascularity/endothelial cell function and the perception of pain.
Moreover, such an experience will also enhance the likelihood of such a student becoming a physician-scientist whose clinical interest is in autoimmune and rheumatologic diseases.
Through this mechanism, we plan to build upon our success in recruiting future M.D./Ph.D. students into a research program with direct relevance to a clinical discipline.

 BBC - 16+ SOS Teacher - Biology Transport tissue fluid, capillaries
Capillaries form what is called a capillary bed – basically a large collection of capillaries that have all come from one arteriole.
Capillaries are the only place in the entire circulatory system where there is any exchange of materials between the blood and the surrounding tissues.
In fact, water tends to move back into the capillaries from the tissue fluid at the venous end of the capillary bed because the blood here has a much higher solute potential than the surrounding tissue fluid does.
