Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Extracellular vesicle- and particle-mediated communication shapes innate and adaptive immune responses

Intercellular communication among immune cells is vital for the coordination of proper immune responses. Extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) act as messengers in intercellular communication, with important consequences for target cell and organ phy ...

Development of functionalized alginate-based hydrogels to reduce fibrosis in the transplantation of microencapsulated cells

François Rémi Pierre Noverraz

Nowadays, the development of cell therapy relies mainly on the advances made toward cell microencapsulation which allows to evade the need for immunosuppression during cell transplantation. Among the materials considered for cell encapsulation, hydrogels d ...

In vivo modeling of human neuron dynamics and Down syndrome

Graham Knott

Harnessing the potential of human stem cells for modeling the physiology and diseases of cortical circuitry requires monitoring cellular dynamics in vivo. We show that human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons transplanted into th ...

Scaffold requirements for periodontal regeneration with enamel matrix derivative proteins

John Christopher Plummer, Laurent Mirko Dejace, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Peter Fischer, Alessandra Apicella

Periodontitis affects the attachment of natural teeth, and infection or inflammation associated with periodontitis may affect peri-implant tissues. Enamel matrix derivative (EMD) proteins provide stimulation for self-regeneration of the damaged tissue when ...

Caspofungin on ARGET-ATRP grafted PHEMA polymers: Enhancement and selectivity of prevention of attachment of Candida albicans

Harm-Anton Klok, Piotr Mocny

There is a need for coatings for biomedical devices and implants that can prevent the attachment of fungal pathogens while allowing human cells and tissue to appose without cytotoxicity. Here, the authors study whether a poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) (P ...
