Bioinspired Design of a Wet‐Adhesive Cornea Glue Based on Recombinant Human Protein Networks
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Natures protein‐based high performance materials e.g. elastin, silk and muscle proteins have been mimicked by a new protein‐hybrid material based on redesigned human partial sequences only, showing high wet‐adhesiveness and elasticity for biomedical applications.

Achievement of Tolerance Induction to Prevent Acute Graft-vs.-Host Disease
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Acute graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) limits the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), a main therapy to treat various hematological disorders.

Differential Phase Contrast Imaging to Predict MSC Immune Function
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work employs quantitative differential phase contrast (qDPC) imaging technique to non‐invasively extract morphological features from live Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) for single cell prediction on cell immunomodulatory capacity. This work establishes a foundation for scalable, non‐destructive monitoring of MSCs immunomodulatory capacity ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a

Pathophysiologic mechanisms of acute graft-vs.-host disease
Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 1999 Graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) remains the major toxicity of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Mechanistic studies in experimental animal models provide a better understanding of the complex relationships and cascade of events mediated by cellular and inflammatory factors.

Clinical intestinal transplantation: New perspectives and immunologic considerations [PDF]
, 1998 Background: Although tacrolimus-based immunosuppression has made intestinal transplantation feasible, the risk of the requisite chronic high- dose treatment has inhibited the widespread use of these procedures.
