Biologically Active Implants Prevent Mortality in a Mouse Sepsis Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular, triple‐action titanium implant is developed to prevent implant‐associated infections by repelling bacteria, killing pathogens, and enhancing tissue integration. Coatings with phage cocktails targeting P. aeruginosa and S. aureus show significant bacterial reduction and improved survival in a mouse sepsis model.

A Novel Core–Shell Hydrogel 3D Model for Studying Macrophage Mechanosensing and Foreign Body Giant Cell Formation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials is primarily driven by macrophages, which often fuse into destructive foreign body giant cells (FBGCs). To address the limited understanding of FBGC formation, a novel microscale core–shell hydrogel 3D model is developed using heterogeneous alginate‐collagen microcapsules with varying stiffness, offering ...

Models of Diffusion/Reaction in Dental Plaque

Microbial Ecology in Health & Disease, 1994
I have extended the originally requested title ‘Models of Diffusion in Dental Plaque’ to include reaction, as the two processes are so intimately linked for a system like dental plaque. This applies whether one is simply measuring diffusion or trying to understand its effects.

Xeno‐Free Biocompatible Peptide‐Based Bioinks Reinforced with Cellulose Nanofibers for 3D Printing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A xeno‐free bioink combining self‐assembled peptides and cellulose nanofibers is developed for 3D printing. The bioink forms a non‐cross‐linked 3D scaffold, mimicking the extracellular matrix and supporting over 95% cell viability. This approach offers enhanced biocompatibility and mechanical stability, advancing 3D printing for personalized medicine ...

A Human Kidney Tubuloid Model of Repeated Cisplatin‐Induced Cellular Senescence and Fibrosis for Drug Screening

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Replicating aging and senescence‐related pathophysiological responses in kidney organoids remains a significant challenge. Human adult renal tubular organoid, tubuloids, are successfully developed recapitulating cellular senescence that is the central pathophysiological mechanism of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
