Bioengineering the Human Muscle Stem-Cell Niche for Therapeutic Applications

Omid Mashinchian

In spite of decades of research, no feasible method for obtaining sufficient numbers of uncommitted muscle stem cells (MuSCs) for therapy of degenerative muscle diseases exists. One of the most fundamental problems associated with stem cell therapy of musc ...

Organs-on-chip monitoring: sensors and other strategies

Philippe Renaud, Sandro Carrara, Francesca Stradolini, Tugba Kilic, Fatemeh Navaee

As a paradigm shifting player of tissue engineering, organs-on-chips (OOCs) are considered to hold great potential for future “clinical trials on chip” as well as a step forward to design personalized medicine. Despite all ethical concerns raised by commun ...

Decellularised tissues obtained by a CO2-philic detergent and supercritical CO2

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Jens Antons, Pierre-Arnaud Aeberhard, Giulia Weissenberger

Tissue decellularisation has gained much attention in regenerative medicine as an alternative to synthetic materials. In decellularised tissues, biological cues can be maintained and provide cellular environments still unmet by synthetic materials. Supercr ...

Decellularization of bovine articular cartilage by supercritical carbon dioxide as a matrix for cartilage repair

Giulia Weissenberger

Decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) derived scaﬀolds serve as potential candidates in the application of cartilage regeneration to guide cells into proliferating and maintaining the structural zones of articular cartilage. ECM tissue matrices oﬀer fr ...

Mechanical and biochemical characterisation of a articular cartilage based dECM hydrogel

Quentin Vermeire

In this study we present a photocrosslinkable and layerable hydrogel based on decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) intended for in vitromodels of cartilage tissue formation. dECM can provide cellular environments that are close to the native tissue s ...

Bio-engineered collagen-fibrin scaffolds for enhancing urological tissue regeneration

Elif Vardar

Urological tissue engineering offers alternative solutions for congenital and acquired diseases of the urinary tract, which may require reconstructive surgery. It evolves to overcome complications, which might be encountered after surgery. Therefore, tissu ...

EPFL2015

Articular cartilage regeneration poses particularly tough challenges for implementing cell-based therapies. Many cell types have been investigated looking for a balanced combination of responsiveness and stability, yet techniques are still far from definin ...
