A cell engineering strategy to enhance the safety of stem cell therapies

Elisa Oricchio

The long-term risk of malignancy associated with stem cell therapies is a significant concern in the clinical application of this exciting technology. We report a cancer-selective strategy to enhance the safety of stem cell therapies. Briefly, using a cell ...

The impedance of biological material changes with frequency, a phenomenon that has been discovered more than 100 years ago. It is due to the fact that the cell membrane acts as a capacitor which filters out currents at low frequency and lets them pass at h ...

Microtechnologies to Map the Fate of Single Stem Cells and their Progeny

Stefan Kobel

Since stem cells have the unique ability to produce more of themselves (i.e. to "self-renew") and to generate specialized tissue cells, they are an ideal source of cells for regenerative medicine and in vitro tissue models. In order to fully exploit this p ...

Micro-engineering the Cerebral Cortical Cell Niche

Anja Kunze

A major problem in traditional cell culture methods, such as Petri dishes and culture flasks, is the very simplified artificial environment around the cells. Traditional cell culture methods lack features of the native cell niche, such as gradients and cel ...

Capturing epidermal stemness for regenerative medicine

Yann Barrandon, Ariane Rochat, François Gorostidi, Stéphanie Claudinot, Andrea Zaffalon, Nicolas Grasset, Stéphanie Danièle Hélène Droz-Georget

The skin is privileged because several skin-derived stem cells (epithelial stem cells from epidermis and its appendages, mesenchymal stem cells from dermis and subcutis, melanocyte stem cells) can be efficiently captured for therapeutic use. Main indicatio ...

Electrochemical Biosensors for On-line Monitoring of Cell Culture Metabolism

Cristina Boero

Current research in the biotechnological field is hampered by the lack of available technologies dedicated to cell monitoring. While on the one hand physicochemical parameters, such as pH, temperature, cell density and adhesion, can be monitored quite easi ...

Embryonic stem cell potency fluctuates with endogenous retrovirus activity

Didier Trono, Helen Mary Rowe

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are derived from blastocyst-stage embryos and are thought to be functionally equivalent to the inner cell mass, which lacks the ability to produce all extraembryonic tissues. Here we identify a rare transient cell population withi ...

Hydrogel Microfluidics to Control Stem Cell Fate

Steffen Cosson

Biomolecular signaling is of utmost importance in governing many biological processes such as morphogenesis during tissue development where biomolecules regulate key cell-fate decisions. In vivo, these factors are presented in a spatiotemporally tightly co ...

2D Stem Cell Culture on Microfluidic Generated Hydrogel Beads

Tanja Cloé Hausherr

Stem cells capacity to self-renew and differentiate into specialized cell types, endow them with great promises in regenerative medicine. It is believed that the stem cells microenvironment plays a significant role in regulating their fate. However, with e ...
