Co‐Electrospinning Extracellular Matrix with Polycaprolactone Enables a Modular Approach to Balance Bioactivity and Mechanics of a Multifunctional Bone Wrap

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The incorporation of nondigested ECM and synthetic polymers into a co‐electrospinning system enables the decoupling of bioactivity and mechanical properties within a single wrap. This technique is used to develop a multifunctional bone wrap that achieves augmented membrane durability, sustained infection control, and enhanced vascularity for use in ...

[Antimicrobial peptides].

Wiadomosci lekarskie (Warsaw, Poland : 1960), 2007
For many years, attention has been focused on adaptive immunity as the main antimicrobial defense system. The discovery of antimicrobial peptides turned this point of view. In general, these peptides act on microorganisms directly by disrupting the structure of the microbial cytoplasmatic membranes and indirectly acting on immune system.
