Porous Decellularized Nerve Grafts Facilitate Recellularization and Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Model of Critical Long‐Gap Peripheral Nerve Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A decellularized nerve graft (DNG) is modified to generate a porous DNG (PDNG). The PDNG is used to repair a 30‐mm peripheral nerve injury (PNI) defect, and is compared with isograft, serving as the standard, and DNG, a widely used alternative. The result shows that PDNG facilitated nerve regeneration in long‐gap PNI, evidenced by better‐aligned axonal

Hydrogel‐Mediated Preservation of Live Tumor Explants for Drug Development in Peritoneal Metastases

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a hyaluronan‐based hydrogel platform preserving the native tumor microenvironment (morphology, tissue composition, histology) of patient‐derived explants from peritoneal metastases, enabling clinically relevant drug screening. Hydrogel properties such as stiffness and degradation are crucial for longer‐term histoculture.
