Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

Mitochondria in the life and death of mechanosensory hair cells
, 2018 Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2018Hair cells are mechanosensory receptors found in the inner ear that mediate hearing and balance. In humans, damage and death of these cells is an underlying cause of hearing loss. Given the high prevalence of

"Studies on the cardiomyocytic potential of dermal stem cells” [PDF]
, 2008 In Europe, diseases of the heart and circulatory system are the main cause of death; 48% of all deaths are from coronary heart disease, accounting for over 4.30 million deaths each year (European cardiovascular disease statistics 2008). Identifying stem

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Packed hydrogel microfiber (PHM) materials consist of flexible and high aspect ratio hydrogel components that, as a bulk material, are simultaneously mechanically robust and dynamic. Cells cultured in or on PHM scaffolds can be influenced by topographical cues or interact with a dynamic environment that permits cell spreading and multicellular ...

Static length changes of cochlear outer hair cells can tune low-frequency hearing.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2018 The cochlea not only transduces sound-induced vibration into neural spikes, it also amplifies weak sound to boost its detection. Actuators of this active process are sensory outer hair cells in the organ of Corti, whereas the inner hair cells transduce ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.We developed a fully human 3D tonsil cell culture system incorporating supportive stromal cells that better sustains and activates immune cells than conventional methods. The model generates stronger, more targeted antibody responses to viral antigens and vaccines, providing a physiologically relevant and entirely human platform for studying immune ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Magnetogenetic deep brain stimulation (MG‐DBS) represents a wireless neuromodulation that has demonstrated long‐lasting behavioral benefits in Parkinson's disease models. However, the circuit‐level mechanisms underlying these therapeutic effects have remained uncharacterized due to limitations of conventional neural interfaces.

Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...
