Rapid Glass‐Substrate Digital Light 3D Printing Enables Anatomically Accurate Stroke Patient‐Specific Carotid Artery‐on‐Chips for Personalized Thrombosis Investigation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid glass‐substrate 3D microfabrication method creates anatomically accurate carotid artery‐on‐a‐chip models from stroke patient scans in 2 h. These miniaturized devices replicate patient‐specific blood vessel geometry and flow patterns, enabling real‐time imaging of clot formation under controlled injury.

Behaviour of the plasma concentration of gelatinases and their tissue inhibitors in subjects with venous leg ulcers. [PDF]

, 2015
Venous leg ulcers are common in subjects with chronic venous insufficiency. The increased intraluminal pressure causes alteration of the skin microcirculation, leukocyte activation and release of proteolytic enzymes leading to ulceration.

Damage Microenvironment Guided Responsive Smart Hydrogel Design for Self‐Regenerative Repair in Chronic Wound Healing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Chronic wounds remain a major therapeutic challenge, with VEGF applications hindered by rapid degradation and systemic side effects. Here, a dual‐responsive chitosan–gelatin hydrogel is reported, functionalized with dopamine, glutathione, and MMP‐sensitive motifs, enabling spatiotemporally controlled VEGF release and enhanced biocompatibility, thereby ...
