Macrophage MMP10 Regulates TLR7-Mediated Tolerance

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Using an in vivo model of tolerance to TLR7-induced skin inflammation, we found a critical role for macrophage-derived MMP10 in mediating immune hypo-responsiveness.

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.

Regulation of MMP2 and MMP9 metalloproteinases by FSH and growth factors in bovine granulosa cells

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2009
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are key enzymes involved in tissue remodeling. Within the ovary, they are believed to play a major role in ovulation, and have been linked to follicle atresia.

Magnetically Controlled Reversible Photomagnetic Nanoactuators for Dynamic Contrast Enhancement in Optical Coherence Tomography

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Photomagnetic nanoactuators with ≈90% scattering efficiency in the second near‐infrared window are demonstrated to exhibit magnetic field‐controlled modulation of optical scattering and optical coherence tomography signals. These nanoactuators are reversibly assembled and disassembled under the external magnetic field modulation, enabling enhanced ...

Biomimetic Dynamics of Nanoscale Groove and Ridge Topography for Stem Cell Regulation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic nanoscale groove‐ridge structures are engineered by flexibly conjugating RGD‐magnetic nanoparticles to nanogroove templates with variable groove widths at the molecular scale. Magnetic control enables cyclic switching between nanoscale groove and ridge states that modulates ligand accessibility of cellular integrins.

Spatially Controlled 3‐D Multiplexed Aptamer Patterning in Hydrogels

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A hydrogel platform based on norbornene‐functionalized polyvinyl alcohol enables high‐resolution, 3‐D multiplexed patterning of DNA aptamers via two‐photon polymerization. Two distinct aptamers are covalently immobilized with single micron‐scale precision across the x, y, and z dimensions.

Tuning the Morphological Properties of Granular Hydrogels to Control Lymphatic Capillary Formation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Tuning the morphological properties of granular hydrogels is essential to generate robust lymphatic capillary networks that express key lymphatic gene and protein markers. The study demonstrates that 3D in vitro lymphatic tube formation is controlled not by the mechanical properties of the gel, but by the pore size and topology (periodicity) of the gel
