Microfluidic Spinning of PEDOT:PSS Microfibers for Nerve Guidance Conduits
This publication explores the fabrication of microfluidically spun PEDOT:PSS microfibers for conductive nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). It details the spinning process, fiber characterization, and biocompatibility assessment. The study highlights the fibers' mechanical and electrical properties, non‐cytotoxicity, and potential for nerve regeneration or

Integrated brain on a chip and automated organ‐on‐chips systems
Organ‐on‐chips (OOCs) related to brain functions have been used in drug development and disease simulation in vitro. However, modeling of complex biological systems remains a major challenge. In this paper, the compositions of the OOCs are optimized, and an automatic integrated system model is designed. It is expected to boost life science research and

Tppp3 is a novel molecule for retinal ganglion cell identification and optic nerve regeneration
Mammalian central nervous system (CNS) axons cannot spontaneously regenerate after injury, creating an unmet need to identify molecular regulators to promote axon regeneration and reduce the lasting impact of CNS injuries.

Insights on Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration
Peripheral nerve injury is a common condition due to trauma that significantly impacts the life of the affected individual. This review explores the anatomy, classification, and pathophysiology of peripheral nerve injuries. It also discusses various types of nerve conduits and presents a detailed review of 3D bioprinted nerve conduits used in both in ...
