Prediction of Steam Burns Severity using Raman Spectroscopy on ex vivo Porcine Skin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Skin burns due to accidental exposure to hot steam have often been reported to be more severe than the ones occurring from dry heat. While skin burns due to flames or radiant heat have been thoroughly characterized, the mechanisms leading to steam burns ...

Self‐Healing Hydrogel‐Enabled Modular Assembly of Bilayered Skin Construct for Hair Follicle Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐healing assembly of two cell‐laden hydrogel layers creates a biomimetic skin construct that restores both dermal and epidermal functions, resulting in accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle regeneration in a full‐thickness skin wound model. ABSTRACT Alopecia remains a pervasive clinical challenge, largely owing to the limited ability

The Role of Viscoelasticity in Heterogeneous Glioblastoma Stem Cell Invasion in Biomimetic 3‐Dimensional Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The role of viscoelasticity in the invasion of heterogeneous glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) was investigated with GSCs categorized into subgroups based on molecular profile, as Reactive, Invasive, or Constructive using viscoelastic biomimetic hyaluronan‐oxime hydrogels.

Bone Organoids Across the Development‐to‐Remodeling Continuum: From Tissue Formation to Functional Competence and Translation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Mineralization alone does not establish a mature bone organoid. This Review integrates biological foundations, materials design, adaptive remodeling, and translational validation through the development‐to‐remodeling continuum (DRC). By separating biological functions from the evidence supporting them, the framework exposes critical gaps in current ...

Calcifying tissue regeneration via biomimetic materials chemistry

open access: yes, 2014
Materials chemistry is making a fundamental impact in regenerative sciences providing many platforms for tissue development. However, there is a surprising paucity of replacements that accurately mimic the structure and function of the structural fabric ...

A 3D‐Printed Model of Human Lactation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Breastfeeding supports infant and maternal health, yet in vitro models that mimic human lactation remain scarce. Here, light‐based 3D printing creates high‐resolution, alveoli‐inspired microwells that guide breast cells into polarized microtissues. The printed scaffolds embed slow‐release prolactin microcrystals to deliver hormonal cues, enabling human

Designing Biomimetic Materials from Marine Organisms

open access: yes, 2015
Two biomimetic design approaches that apply biological solutions to engineering problems are discussed. In the first case, motivation comes from an engineering problem and the key challenge is to find analogous biological functions and map them into ...
