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.
Biomolecular signaling is of utmost importance in governing many biological processes such as morphogenesis during tissue development where biomolecules regulate key cell-fate decisions. In vivo, these factors are presented in a spatiotemporally tightly co ...
According to the last WHO numbers, cardiac diseases remain the first cause of death in the world. Cell therapy represents a promising approach to restore heart function. Cardiac derived adherent proliferation (CAP) cells were shown to support the heart reg ...
Densely arrayed skeletal myotubes are activated individually and as a group using precise optical stimulation with high spatiotemporal resolution. Skeletal muscle myoblasts are genetically encoded to express a light-activated cation channel, Channelrhodops ...
Tissue-engineered grafts for the urinary tract are being investigated for the potential treatment of several urologic diseases. These grafts, predominantly tubular-shaped, usually require in vitro culture prior to implantation to allow cell engraftment on ...
This paper presents an approach for understanding the soft-tissue behavior in surface contact with a probe scanning the tissue. The application domain is confocal microlaparoscopy, mostly used for imaging the outer surface of the organs in the abdominal ca ...
The pancreas plays a central role in metabolism. The exocrine pancreas, composed of ductal and acinar cells, secretes and delivers digestive enzymes into the duodenum where they contribute to food digestion. The endocrine pancreas, constituted by the islet ...
Stem cells capacity to self-renew and differentiate into specialized cell types, endow them with great promises in regenerative medicine. It is believed that the stem cells microenvironment plays a significant role in regulating their fate. However, with e ...
We present a model for mechanical activation of the cardiac tissue depending on the evolution of the transmembrane electrical potential and certain gating/ionic variables that are available in most of electrophysiological descriptions of the cardiac membra ...
A major problem in traditional cell culture methods, such as Petri dishes and culture flasks, is the very simplified artificial environment around the cells. Traditional cell culture methods lack features of the native cell niche, such as gradients and cel ...
An optimized 3D inkjet printing process is demonstrated for structuring alginate into a tissue-like microvasculature capable of supporting physiological flow rates. Optimizing the reaction at the single-droplet level enables wet hydrogel droplets to be sta ...
