Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

AI-based Aortic Vessel Tree Segmentation for Cardiovascular Diseases Treatment: Status Quo [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The aortic vessel tree is composed of the aorta and its branching arteries, and plays a key role in supplying the whole body with blood. Aortic diseases, like aneurysms or dissections, can lead to an aortic rupture, whose treatment with open surgery is highly risky.

Reduced-order modeling of left ventricular flow subject to aortic valve regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 31(3), 031901 (2019), 2019
The present focus of heart flow studies is largely based on flow within the left ventricle and how this flow changes when subject to disease. However, despite recent advancements, a simple tractable model of even healthy left ventricular flow has not been produced and made available.

Endovascular treatment of genetically linked aortic diseases

open access: yesGefässchirurgie, 2017
BackgroundThe most important structural proteins of the vascular wall are collagen and elastin. Genetically linked connective tissue diseases lead to degeneration, aneurysm formation and spontaneous dissection or rupture of arteries.

Biologically‐Inspired Melt Electrowriting for the Generation of Highly Biomimetic Functional Myocardium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.
