Graph Chatbot
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.
We sought to develop bioactive hydrogels to facilitate arterial healing, e.g., after balloon angioplasty. Toward this end, we developed a new class of proteolytically sensitive, biol. active polyethylene glycol (PEG)-peptide hydrogels that can be formed in ...
Local, controlled induction of angiogenesis remains a challenge that limits tissue engineering approaches to replace or restore diseased tissues. We present a new class of bioactive synthetic hydrogel matrices based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and synth ...
The development of new therapeutic approaches that aim to help the body exert its natural mechanisms for vascularized tissue growth (therapeutic angiogenesis) has become one of the most active areas of tissue engineering. Through basic research, several gr ...
Tissue remodeling often reflects alterations in local mechanical conditions and manifests as an integrated response among the different cell types that share, and thus cooperatively manage, an extracellular matrix. Here we examine how two different cell ty ...
The goal of this work was to improve the potential of fibrin to promote nerve regeneration by enzymatically incorporating exogenous neurite-promoting heparin-binding peptides. The effects on neurite extension of four different heparin-binding peptides, der ...
The emergence of tissue engineering raises new possibilities for the study of complex physiological and pathophysiological processes in vitro. Many tools are now available to create 3D tissue models in vitro, but the blueprints for what to make have been s ...
For holographic biopsy purposes, holograms of biological tissue samples have been recorded in vitro to establish the possibility of differentiating tissues on the holograms. With the use of specific absorbing dyes for staining tissues, the contrast has bee ...
Model systems mimicking the extracellular matrix (ECM) have greatly helped in quantifying cell migration in three dimensions and elucidated the mol. determinants of cellular motility in morphogenesis, regeneration, and disease progression. Here the authors ...
