Foam-like compression behavior of fibrin networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The rheological properties of fibrin networks have been of long-standing interest. As such there is a wealth of studies of their shear and tensile responses, but their compressive behavior remains unexplored.

Fibrin and Collagen Differentially but Synergistically Regulate Sprout Angiogenesis of Human Dermal Microvascular Endothelial Cells in 3-Dimensional Matrix

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2013
Angiogenesis is a highly regulated event involving complex, dynamic interactions between microvascular endothelial cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Alteration of ECM composition and architecture is a hallmark feature of wound clot and tumor

Fabrication of Blood Capillary Models for Live Imaging Microarray Analysis

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Conventional microarray analysis usually deals with the monolayer or two-dimensional (2D) assays for the high-throughput screening applications. Even though these cell-based assays are effective for preliminary screening at least to have information on ...

Biological implications of a discrete mathematical model for collagen deposition and alignment in dermal wound repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We deveiop a novel mathematical model for collagen deposition and alignment during dermal wound healing. We focus on the interactions between fibroblasts, modelled as discrete entities, and a continuous extracellular matrix composed of collagen and a ...

Mechanical forces regulate the interactions of fibronectin and collagen I in extracellular matrix [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Despite the crucial role of extracellular matrix (ECM) in directing cell fate in healthy and diseased tissues--particularly in development, wound healing, tissue regeneration and cancer--the mechanisms that direct the assembly and regulate hierarchical ...
