3D tumor spheroid models for in vitro therapeutic screening: a systematic approach to enhance the biological relevance of data obtained

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
The potential of a spheroid tumor model composed of cells in different proliferative and metabolic states for the development of new anticancer strategies has been amply demonstrated.

Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994
Dwarf Spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are the faintest baryonic systems recognized as galaxies. Understanding the structure and stellar populations of these systems is critical for the modelling of their formation and evolution, and by extension, for understanding the general problem of galaxy formation ...

Vascularized cancer on a chip: The effect of perfusion on growth and drug delivery of tumor spheroid.

open access: yesBiomaterials, 2019
Tumor vasculature creates a hostile tumor microenvironment (TME) in vivo and nourishes cancers, resulting in cancer progression and drug resistance. To mimic the biochemical and biomechanical environments of tumors in vitro, several models integrated ...

Evaluation of Nanoparticle Penetration in the Tumor Spheroid Using Two-Photon Microscopy

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have emerged as a prominent nanomedicine platform, especially for tumor-related nanocarrier systems. However, there is increasing concern about the ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to penetrate solid tumors, resulting

Biofidelic dynamic compression of human cortical spheroids reproduces neurotrauma phenotypes

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Fundamental questions about patient heterogeneity and human-specific pathophysiology currently obstruct progress towards a therapy for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Human in vitro models have the potential to address these questions.

Interleukin 6 Plays a Role in the Migration of Magnetically Levitated Mesenchymal Stem Cells Spheroids

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reside quiescently within a specialised ‘niche’ environment in the bone marrow. However, following appropriate signalling cues, MSCs mobilise and migrate out from the niche, typically toward either sites of injury (a ...

Collagen Partition in Polymeric Aqueous Two-Phase Systems for Tissue Engineering

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2018
Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and dextran (DEX) are commonly used to partition proteins. Protein partition in ATPS is a complex phenomenon and depends on factors including molecular weight of polymers, and electrochemical ...

Biofabrication of prevascularized spheroids for bone tissue engineering by fusion of microvascular fragments with osteoblasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionSpheroids are promising building blocks for scaffold-free bone tissue engineering. Their rapid vascularization is of major importance to guarantee their survival after transplantation.
