Thoughts on Scaffolds [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Biosystems, 2017
Scaffolds are instrumental in the engineering of functional tissues, and therefore have been an intense area of interest within regenerative biology and medicine in areas of research and development. Many approaches exist for creating scaffolds with either natural or synthetic advanced materials, which are subsequently coupled with cells and other ...

Self-assembling peptide-enriched electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds promote the h-osteoblast adhesion and modulate differentiation-associated gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) is able to support the adhesion and growth of h-osteoblasts and to delay their degradation rate to a greater extent with respect to other polyesters. The drawbacks linked to its employment in regenerative medicine arise

Characterizing the hierarchical structures of bioactive sol-gel silicate glass and hybrid scaffolds for bone regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bone is the second most widely transplanted tissue after blood. Synthetic alternatives are needed that can reduce the need for transplants and regenerate bone by acting as active temporary templates for bone growth.

Soft Actuated Hybrid Hydrogel with Bioinspired Complexity to Control Mechanical Flexure Behavior for Tissue Engineering

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Hydrogels exhibit excellent properties that enable them as nanostructured scaffolds for soft tissue engineering. However, single-component hydrogels have significant limitations due to the low versatility of the single component. To achieve this goal, we

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Healthy and Diseased Human Gingiva Support Osteogenesis on Electrospun Polycaprolactone Scaffolds

open access: yesBioengineering, 2018
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting almost half of the adult US population. Gingiva is an integral part of the periodontium and has recently been identified as a source of adult gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs).

Scaffolding or Skeleton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A study investigated the use of software scaffolding for student design and construction of multimedia environments as a cross-curricular learning activity. The students (11 to 13 years) in a Melbourne, Australia, girls’ school, worked in a technologically enriched learning environment and were experienced multimedia developers. The girls were provided

Applications of Carbon Nanotubes in Bone Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Scaffolds are essential for bone regeneration due to their ability to maintain a sustained release of growth factors and to provide a place where cells that form new bone can enter and proliferate.

Eccrine Sweat Gland and Its Regeneration: Current Status and Future Directions

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Eccrine sweat glands (ESGs) play an important role in temperature regulation by secreting sweat. Insufficiency or dysfunction of ESGs in a hot environment or during exercise can lead to hyperthermia, heat exhaustion, heatstroke, and even death, but the ...
