this is a decellularized ghost heart where scientists completely wash away all the blood and living cells leaving only the pure white protein scaffold so they can inject it with new stem cells to grow a custom organ

“Ghost Heart” would have been a great CB handle
Never thought i’d ever see the phrase “custom organ”. Shows hoe far science has come.
Wow, that looks pretty neat
AHHHHHH!! (Because ghosts are scary)
i kinda wanna bite it, just to feel it’s texture
am i weird?
Protein. Yum
I could do that with my heart, but I don’t want to right now 🌹
Huh.
Most Cyberpunk shit I’ve ever read
Wow
This solves the biggest problem with transplants: rejection. If it works, it will save hundreds of thousands of lives. Fucking science.
Saw one of these in 2012 when I toured colleges- still haven’t done anything with it (though studying the ECM is very cool!)
What is this protein scaffold? Isn’t all tissue made of cells? Is it just collagen or something?
upd: ok, I see [https://medizzy.com/feed/124590](https://medizzy.com/feed/124590)
Looks like a Westworld prop

Its a ghost heart because it belongs to the person who died
