Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

End Stage Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Which Patients Are at Higher Risk of Mortality Awaiting Lung Transplantation? [PDF]

, 2010
Purpose: To date factors predicting a fatal outcome in patients with end stage idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) awaiting lung transplantation (LTx) are not well established yet. Aim: to better characterize the higher risk population among IPF patients

Enhancing Maturation of Human Neuromuscular Organoids via Electrical Stimulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A framework for on‐demand and non‐invasive exposure of human neuromuscular organoids (NMOs) to electrical stimuli is established to promote their maturation. The robustness and effectiveness of different stimulation regimes are evaluated via thorough characterization of organoid tissue structure and contraction capacity. Chronic electrical stimulation,

Assessing and managing frailty in advanced heart failure: An International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation consensus statement [PDF]

Frailty is increasingly recognized as a salient condition in patients with heart failure (HF) as previous studies have determined that frailty is highly prevalent and prognostically significant, particularly in those with advanced HF.

Regression of renal cell carcinoma by T cell receptor-engineered T cells targeting a human endogenous retrovirus

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
Background We discovered a novel human endogenous retrovirus (CT-RCC HERV-E) that was selectively expressed in most clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC) and served as a source of antigens for T cell-mediated killing. Here, we described the cloning of

A Fentanyl‐Responsive Microneedle Patch for Harm Reduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A fentanyl‐responsive microneedle patch is developed as a self‐regulating overdose intervention that releases naloxone upon detecting fentanyl. The system employs aptamer‐functionalized nanoparticles embedded in a swellable polymer matrix to enable rapid, on‐demand drug delivery through the skin.
