It has recently been shown that some growth factors (GFs) have strong interactions with nonproteoglycan extracellular matrix proteins. Relevant here, the 12th-14th type three repeats of fibronectin (FN III12-14) have been shown to bind insulin-like growth ...

Currently, both congenital abnormalities and developmental problems of the bladder in children, and other dysfunctions in adults, require reconstructive surgery. Such correction involves transplant action of native tissues (such as gastrointestinal segment ...

Formation of new vessels in granulation tissue during wound healing has been assumed to occur solely through sprouting angiogenesis. In contrast, we show here that neovascularization can be accomplished by nonangiogenic expansion of preexisting vessels. Us ...
Cell organization into functional multicellular three-dimensional structures is a long-standing challenge. In particular, engineering of vascularized tissues requires both blood and lymphatic neovascular network formation in a simultaneous and coordinated ...
Although growth factors naturally exert their morphogenetic influences within the context of the extracellular matrix microenvironment, the interactions among growth factors, their receptors, and other extracellular matrix components are typically ignored ...
Ischemic wounds are characterized by oxygen levels lower than that of healthy skin ( hypoxia) and poor healing. To better understand the pathophysiology of impaired wound healing, we investigated how switching from high ( 21%) to low ( 2%) oxygen levels di ...

Engineering of fetal tissue has a high potential for the treatment of acute and chronic wounds of the skin in humans as these cells have high expansion capacity under simple culture conditions and one organ donation can produce Master Cell Banks which can ...
Conducting tissue healing and regeneration through biomaterials and morphogens is still an unrealized goal. Understand the multiple roles of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is indeed essential for the design of successful regenerative medicine strategies. D ...
Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels arise from existing ones by the budding out of endothelial cell capillaries from the luminal side of blood vessels. Blood vessel formation is essential for organ development during embryogenesis and is ...
Few biopharmaceutical preparations developed from biologicals are available for tissue regeneration and scar management. When developing biological treatments with cellular therapy, selection of cell types and establishment of consistent cell banks are cru ...
