P-term, D-term and F-term inflation [PDF]
P-term inflation is a version of hybrid inflation which naturally appears in some brane inflation models. It was introduced in the framework of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory where superconformal SU(2,2|2) symmetry is broken down to N=2 supersymmetry by the vev of the auxiliary triplet field P.

Platelet-derived transforming growth factor-β1 promotes keratinocyte proliferation in cutaneous wound healing. [PDF]
Platelets are a recognised potent source of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1), a cytokine known to promote wound healing and regeneration by stimulating dermal fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition.

Electrospun fibrinogen-PLA nanofibres for vascular tissue engineering [PDF]
Here we report on the development of a new type of hybrid fibrinogen–polylactic acid (FBG–PLA) nanofibres (NFs) with improved stiffness, combining the good mechanical properties of PLA with the excellent cell recognition properties of native FBG. We were

A miniaturized bioreactor system for the evaluation of cell interaction with designed substrates in perfusion culture [PDF]
In tissue engineering, the chemical and topographical cues within three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds are normally tested using static cell cultures but applied directly to tissue cultures in perfusion bioreactors.

A 3D In Vitro Model for Burn Wounds: Monitoring of Regeneration on the Epidermal Level
Burns affect millions every year and a model to mimic the pathophysiology of such injuries in detail is required to better understand regeneration. The current gold standard for studying burn wounds are animal models, which are under criticism due to ...
