Standardized Effect Measures Informing Next‐Generation Strategies for Mechanical Stimulation in Cartilage Tissue Engineering

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This systematic review quantitatively compares conventional mechanical stimulation strategies in cartilage tissue engineering across 85 heterogeneous in vitro studies. Applying standardized effect measures, meta‐analysis reveals that combined compression and shear loading optimally promotes cartilage matrix development.

Airway ciliated cells in adult lung homeostasis and COPD

European Respiratory Review, 2023
Cilia are organelles emanating from the cell surface, consisting of an axoneme of microtubules that extends from a basal body derived from the centrioles. They are either isolated and nonmotile (primary cilia), or grouped and motile (motile cilia). Cilia

Culture and detection of primary cilia in endothelial cell models

, 2015
Background: The primary cilium is a sensor of blood-induced forces in endothelial cells (ECs). Studies that have examined EC primary cilia have reported a wide range of cilia incidence (percentage of ciliated cells). We hypothesise that this variation is

Enhanced release of ciliary extracellular vesicles suppresses cell migration and promotes cell aggregation

Cell Structure and Function
A primary cilium is a hair-like organelle that protrudes from the cell surface in many cell types. Growing evidence indicates that extracellular vesicles are released from primary cilia, and research is increasingly focused on defining the functions of ...
