Bio-Enhanced Neoligaments Graft Bearing FE002 Primary Progenitor Tenocytes: Allogeneic Tissue Engineering & Surgical Proofs-of-Concept for Hand Ligament Regenerative Medicine

Sandra Jaccoud, Corinne Scaletta, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Cédric Peneveyre, Annick Jeannerat, Alexis Laurent, Joachim Meuli

Hand tendon/ligament structural ruptures (tears, lacerations) often require surgical reconstruction and grafting, for the restauration of finger mechanical functions. Clinical-grade human primary progenitor tenocytes (FE002 cryopreserved progenitor cell so ...

Micro- and nanostructure specific X-ray tomography reveals less matrix formation and altered collagen organization following re duce d loading during Achilles tendon healing

Marianne Liebi

Recovery of the collagen structure following Achilles tendon rupture is poor, resulting in a high risk for re-ruptures. The loading environment during healing affects the mechanical properties of the tendon, but the relation between loading regime and heal ...

Novel Design and Implementation of a Neuromuscular Controller on a Hip Exoskeleton for Partial Gait Assistance

Auke Ijspeert, Mohamed Bouri, Ali Reza Manzoori, Andrea Di Russo, Sara Messara

Exoskeletons intended for partial assistance of walking should be able to follow the gait pattern of their users, via online adaptive control strategies rather than imposing predefined kinetic or kinematic profiles. NeuroMuscular Controllers (NMCs) are ada ...

Aging and matrix viscoelasticity affect multiscale tendon properties and tendon derived cell behavior

Yann Tinguely

Aging is the largest risk factor for Achilles tendon associated disorders and rupture. Although Achilles tendon macroscale elastic properties are suggested to decline with aging, less is known about the effect of maturity and aging on multiscale viscoelast ...

Low-Intensity Electrostimulation Enhances Neuroregeneration and Improves Erectile Function in a Rat Model of Cavernous Nerve Injury

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Mikaël Nils Sturny, Rodrigo Araujo Fraga Da Silva

Background: Neurogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) following radical prostatectomy (RP) is a frequent complication often leading to erectile tissue remodeling and permanent ED. Low-intensity electrostimulation (LIES) has been shown to enhance peripheral nerv ...

Microtensile failure mechanisms in lamellar bone: Influence of fibrillar orientation, specimen size and hydration

Johann Michler, Daniele Casari, Tatiana Kochetkova

A mechanistic understanding of bone fracture is indispensable for developing improved fracture risk assessment in clinics. Since bone is a hierarchically structured material, gaining such knowledge requires analysis at multiple length scales. Here, the ten ...

Engineered Extracellular Matrices with Integrated Wireless Microactuators to Study Mechanobiology

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas, Fazil Emre Uslu

Mechanobiology explores how forces regulate cell behaviors and what molecular machinery are responsible for the sensing, transduction, and modulation of mechanical cues. To this end, probing of cells cultured on planar substrates has served as a primary ex ...

A Signal Peak Separation Index for axisymmetric B-tensor encoding

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Marco Pizzolato, Gaëtan Olivier D Rensonnet, Benoît Macq

Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) has recently seen a rising interest in planar, spherical and general B-tensor encodings. Some of these sequences have aided traditional linear encoding in the estimation of white matter microstructural features, generally by ...

Gold nanoparticles as a new tool in amyloid studies

Urszula Beata Cendrowska

The misfolding and self-assembly of proteins into fibrils is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative and systemic diseases. These disease-associated proteins have the propensity to form fibrils with a cross-Î² sheet structure, called amyloids. Amyloids can ...
