Engineering Strain‐Stiffening Granular Hydrogels for 3D‐Printed Tissue‐Mimicry

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable strain‐stiffening double‐network granular hydrogel (SDGH) enables independent, region‐specific tuning of toe (EToe) and heel (EHeel) moduli through control of microgel packing and network composition. This platform replicates tissue‐like nonlinear mechanics and allows fabrication of high‐fidelity, multilayered aortic valves with ...

Super‐Resolution Ultrasound Based Cell Tracking With Polymeric Nanobubbles

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a super‐resolution ultrasound platform for tracking cells in vivo. Biocompatible polymeric nanobubbles are used as highly echogenic intracellular labels. Following the injection of cells and microbubbles, ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) can dynamically match the microvascular architecture and individual cell trajectories ...

The changes of aortic diameter after aortic repair with aortic tailoring technique for chronic type B aortic dissection [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVES: Aortic repair with aortic tailoring of the false lumen can preserve the true lumen and intercostal arteries naturally. It is a useful surgical strategy to prevent paraplegia.

Additive Manufacturing of Patient‐Specific Intracranial Aneurysm Cell Culture Models

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Patient‐specific intracranial aneurysm models were fabricated using chocolate moulding, 3D printed water‐soluble cores, and direct resin 3D printing. Moulding PDMS around sacrificial cores made of chocolate or 3D printed water‐soluble resin yielded accurate, expandable, and endothelializable models that outperformed resin‐based approaches.

Aortic distensibility in bicuspid aortic valve patients with normal aortic diameter

Therapeutic Advances in Cardiovascular Disease, 2014
Objective: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with aortic abnormalities. The ascending aorta tends to dilate and its elasticity deteriorates. The morphology of the BAV and the elasticity of the proximal ascending aorta seem to influence the outcome.
