A continuum approximation approach to the depot location problem in a crowd-shipping system

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Patrick Stefan Adriaan Stokkink

Last-mile delivery in the logistics chain contributes to congestion in urban networks due to frequent stops. Crowd-shipping is a sustainable and low-cost alternative to traditional delivery but relies heavily on the availability of occasional couriers. In ...

Cross-anatomical single-cell definition and characterization of human adipose progenitor niche

Radiana Ferrero

Adipose tissue is a key metabolic and highly-dynamic organ whose dysregulation may cause clinical conditions of concern such as obesity and lipodystrophy. Its function varies based on the anatomy, in fact, visceral adipose tissue expansion carries a greate ...

Magnetic and in vitro heating properties of implants formed in situ from injectable formulations and containing superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) embedded in silica microparticles for magnetically induced local hyperthermia

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink, Olivier Jordan

The biological and therapeutic responses to hyperthermia, when it is envisaged as an anti-tumor treatment modality, are complex and variable. Heat delivery plays a critical role and is counteracted by more or less efficient body cooling, which is largely m ...

The in vivo performance of magnetic particle-loaded injectable, in situ gelling, carriers for the delivery of local hyperthermia

Heinrich Hofmann, Antonin Faes, Alke Fink, Olivier Jordan, Daniel Ruefenacht

In situ forming implants are attractive for minimally invasive localized therapies such as aneurysm embolization. As for the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs), their deposition/injection in a target tissue area allows magnetically induced ...

A new non-toxic chemically cross-linked ELP hydrogel for in situ protein delivery

Karine Ciapala

Proteins play an essential role in all biological processes and have been attracting more and more attention as drug candidates due to their high specificity and activity. However, their use as therapeutics has been seriously held back given that their abi ...

INJECTABLE SUPERPARAMAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES FOR TREATMENT BY HYPERTHERMIA AND USE FOR FORMING AN HYPERTHERMIC IMPLANT

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink, Mathieu Chastellain, Olivier Jordan

The injectable formulation for treatment by hyperthermia comprises a liquid carrier and heat-generating superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles having a mean diameter not greater than 20 nm. Said injectable formulation is able to form in-situ a hyperthe ...
