Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Adrenal Crisis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Glucocorticoid replacement therapy, available since the 1950s, has prolonged the survival of patients with adrenal insufficiency. However, adrenal crises, which are life-threatening medical emergencies, still develop in many affected patients.

Induction of Nephron–Ductal Dual Lineages via Early Retinoic Acid Signaling Establishes a Platform for Fully Patterned Kidney Organoids

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified, co‐culture‐free protocol for kidney organoids that generate segmented nephrons, including collecting ducts, has been developed. Early low‐dose RA with FGF9 induces balanced anterior–posterior IM patterning and dual UE/MM lineage commitment. BMP7 enhances nephron progenitor maturation.

Self‐Assembling Multi‐Antigen T Cell Hybridizers for Precision Immunotherapy of Multiple Myeloma

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel modular T‐cell engager platform, MATCH, is developed for personalized multiple myeloma therapy. MATCH uses complementary oligonucleotide‐linked Fab’ fragments to enable flexible targeting of MM antigens and controlled T‐cell activation. The system shows potent, antigen‐specific cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo, highlighting its potential for ...

Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses: A Powerful Tool in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work is a comprehensive revision of bioactive glasses (BGs), pioneered by Prof. L.L. Hench, which are key in bone repair and regenerative medicine. Sol–gel methods and mesoporous designs enhanced their bioactivity, ions, and drug delivery. BGs now support gene therapy and 3D‐printed scaffolds, enabling personalized, multifunctional treatments in ...

Development of a Synthetic 3D Platform for Compartmentalized Kidney In Vitro Disease Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A fully synthetic, compartmentalized 3D kidney disease model is introduced. The kidney model combines a PEG‐based hydrogel matrix with anisotropic, enzymatically degradable rod‐shaped microgels to spatially arrange a triple co‐culture of key renal epithelial, endothelial, and fibroblast cells.
