Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Human Leucocyte Antigen: A Forgotten Criterion for Decellularization Success
, 2023 PURPOSE: Decellularization procedures significantly progressed to reduce the risk of immune rejection in allo- or xenogenic transplantation. The validation of decellularization protocols is typically based on Crapo’s criteria, including the absence of ...

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Renal failure remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, as current renal replacement therapies restore filtration but fail to replicate the kidney's transport, metabolic, and endocrine functions. Bioengineered systems using primary renal epithelial cells show promise in recapitulating these processes, and integration into synthetic ...

Endothelial Hydrogels Improve Microvascular Regeneration and Perfusion in Tracheal Scaffolds
The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 9, Page 3895-3906, September 2026.Insufficient vascularization remains a major barrier to successful tracheal transplantation. This study demonstrates that an endothelial hydrogel significantly enhances graft perfusion and neovessel organization compared to non‐endothelial hydrogel controls.

Bovine Ovarian Tissue Engineering: From Biomaterial Design to Translational Outlook
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 9, September 2026.This review maps how native bovine ovarian tissue, decellularized extracellular matrix, non‐ECM hydrogels, and printable hybrid formulations define the current design space for ovarian bioengineering. Rather than identifying a single optimal platform, it shows that ovarian specificity, mechanical tunability, diffusion competence, and biofabrication ...

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 241-259, September 2026.Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...
