Tissue Engineering with Mechanically Induced Solid‐Fluid Transitions

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Ece Özelçi, Jaemin Kim, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas, Matthias Rüegg, Jon Märki, Odysseas Konstantinos Chaliotis

Epithelia are contiguous sheets of cells that stabilize the shape of internal organs and support their structure by covering their surfaces. They acquire diverse morphological forms appropriate for their specific functions during embryonic development, suc ...

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 model for 3D deformation and reconstruction of contractile microtissues

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Jaemin Kim, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas

Tissue morphogenesis and regeneration are essentially mechanical processes that involve coordination of cellular forces, production and structural remodeling of extracellular matrix (ECM), and cell migration. Discovering the principles of cell–ECM interact ...

Surface and bulk stresses drive morphological changes in fibrous microtissues

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas

Engineered fibrous tissues consisting of cells encapsulated within collagen gels are widely used three-dimensional (3D) in vitro models of morphogenesis and wound healing. While cell-mediated matrix remodeling that occurs within these scaffolds has been ex ...

A model for cellular mechanotransduction and contractility at finite strain

William Curtin, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Nikolaos Bouklas

In this work we introduce a theoretical and computational modeling framework for the contractile response of single cells triggered by external mechanical stimuli. The structural response due to the formation and dissociation of stress fibers is modeled fo ...

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
