Human embryonic stem cell-derived microvascular grafts for cardiac tissue preservation after myocardial infarction

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

We present use of a synthetic, injectable matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)- responsive, bioactive hydrogel as an in situ forming scaffold to deliver thymosin beta 4 (T beta 4), a pro-angiogenic and pro-survival factor, along with vascular cells derived from ...

Viollet-le-Duc, architetto

Giulia Chemolli

The purpose of the thesis is to fill a gap in the publications about Viollet-le-Duc, outlining his profile as an architect through a chronological study of his projects, whether built or not, of his theoretic writings and, when useful, of his restoration w ...

Engineered aprotinin for improved stability of fibrin biomaterials

Peter Frey, Stephane Kontos, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Kristen Lorentz

Fibrin has been long used clinically for hemostasis and sealing, yet extension of use in other applications has been limited due to its relatively rapid resorption in vivo, even with addition of aprotinin or other protease inhibitors. We report an engineer ...

Bioengineering stem cell niches in 2D and 3D

Nora Leonardi

Muscle degenerative disorders, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, have a profound impact on the quality of life and survival of patients. Transplantation of myoblasts to restore muscle function has been discouraging since these cells die and don't migrat ...

Muscle stem cell's in vitro bipolar niche

Adrien de Tonnac

In the domain of regenerative medicine research there are many fronts aimed at increasing our understanding of induced pluripotent, embryonic and adult stem cells. Recently a new front has appeared, stem cell niches, the microenvironment that is a crucial ...

Artificial stem cell niches

Matthias Lütolf

Stem cells are characterized by their dual ability to reproduce themselves (self-renew) and specialize (differentiate), yielding essentially unlimited numbers of daughter cells that can maintain and regenerate tissues. In contrast to their embryonic counte ...

Chromosomal Number Aberrations and Transformation in Adult Mouse Retinal Stem Cells In Vitro

Freddy Radtke, Ivan Stamenkovic

Purpose. The potential of stem cells (SCs) as a source for cell-based therapy on a wide range of degenerative diseases and damaged tissues such as retinal degeneration has been recognized. Generation of a high number of retinal stem cells (RSCs) in vitro w ...

Tissue engineering of the bladder

Catharina Adelöw

Stem cell use in bladder tissue engineering is a recently addressed area of investigation that has generated excitement as a novel way to restore and regenerate lost or damaged urinary bladder tissue. The remodelling of smooth muscle plays a significant ro ...

Micropatterning of Hydrogels by Soft Embossing

Matthias Lütolf, Thierry Laroche, Stefan Kobel, Samy Gobaa, Monika Limacher

Conventional in situ hydrogel micropatterning techniques work successfully for relatively stiff hydrogels, but they often result in locally damaged surfaces upon demolding in the case of soft and fragile polymer networks formed at low precursor concentrati ...

Understanding engraftment of cultured epidermal stem cells

Nicolas Grasset

The epidermis and its appendages protect our body from environmental hazards. Cells generated in the basal layer continuously replace the terminally differentiated keratinocytes that are shed off the epidermal surface. Long-term renewal depends on specific ...
