Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Recent Trends in Electrical Stimulation Therapy.

open access: yesJournal of exercise physiology, 1994
1991年から1993年までの3年間における国内の理学療法士の論文,学会発表と,同時期のPhysical Therapy誌における論文の比較から,電気刺激療法に関する最近の傾向と問題点を探った。国内の学会では,筋力増強のための電気刺激療法,Physical Therapy誌では,創傷・潰瘍治癒,浮腫抑制のための電気刺激療法に関するものが多くみられた。また,Physlcal Therapy誌では動物を対象とした基礎的研究に関する論文がみられるのも特徴的であった。これらのことから,従来より指摘されている,より基礎的な研究による作用メカニズムの解明が必要なことが改めて示唆された。

Additively Manufactured Diamond for Energy Scavenging and Wireless Power Transfer in Implantable Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing is expanding beyond mechanical prosthetics into microelectronic implants. This work presents a diamond‐titanium hybrid that enables wireless power transfer, localized heating, and flow sensing. The use of additive manufacturing combined with the biocompatibility of the diamond‐titanium hybrid material paves the way toward new ...

3D Multicellular Scaffold Based Model for Advancing Bone Disorder Research

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable 3D multicellular in vitro bone model engineered by integrating osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and endothelial cells on biodegradable scaffolds. The system recapitulates key features of human bone remodeling and disease pathology. As a proof of concept, the model mimics osteogenesis imperfecta, demonstrating its potential as a physiologically ...

Bicontinuous Microarchitected Scaffolds Provide Topographic Cues That Govern Neuronal Behavior and Maturation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable biomimetic platform transforms bioinert poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate into neuroinstructive matrices via integrating solvent transfer‐induced phase separation, microfluidics, and 3D bioprinting. Bicontinuous, hyperbolically curved microporous networks embedded within a fibrous construct elicit rapid adhesion, robust proliferation, and ...
