Until Labs progress report shows electrical activity recovery in rewarmed rodent neural tissue

Until LabsReversible organ cryopreservation

Until Labs released a September 2024 progress report demonstrating recovery of electrical activity from rewarmed mouse cerebellar tissue after vitrification. The work showed that neurons maintain synaptic connectivity and function after freeze-thaw cycles, validating the core approach for organ-scale cryopreservation.

  • Mouse cerebellar tissue successfully recovered electrical activity after vitrification and rewarming.
  • Synaptic connections and neural signaling were preserved, showing functional recovery.
  • Used alternating magnetic fields with iron oxide nanoparticles for uniform rewarming.
