Fundamentals of tissue engineering: Tissues and applications

Technology and Health Care, 2002
As the average life expectancy has increased with advances in the medical sciences the degenerative diseases have become a critical issue. More organs, joints, and other critical body parts wear out and need to be replaced because people wish to maintain a good quality of life in their old ages.

In vivo tissue engineering of musculoskeletal tissues

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2011
Tissue engineering of musculoskeletal tissues often involves the in vitro manipulation and culture of progenitor cells, growth factors and biomaterial scaffolds. Though in vitro tissue engineering has greatly increased our understanding of cellular behavior and cell-material interactions, this methodology is often unable to recreate tissue with the ...

Tissue Microarrays

2009
Modern array technologies allow for the simultaneous screening of virtually all human genes on the DNA and RNA level. Studies using such techniques have lead to the identification of hundreds of genes with a potential role in cancer or other diseases. The validation of all of these candidate genes requires in situ analysis of high numbers of clinical ...

Convection and diffusion in tissues and tissue cultures

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1977
Abstract The relative importance of transport by diffusion and convection in permeable tissues is investigated in three-dimensional structures. The transport of a solute takes place from a number of sources embedded in the tissue, to a number of sinks similarly embedded.

Amplification of Tissue by Construction of Tissue Microarrays

Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 2001
Tissue microarrays are a method of relocating tissue from conventional histologic paraffin blocks in a manner that tissue from multiple patients or blocks can be seen on the same slide. This is done by using a needle to biopsy a standard histologic section and placing the core into an array on a recipient paraffin block.

Adenosine in Tissue Protection and Tissue Regeneration

Molecular Pharmacology, 2005
Adenosine promotes tissue protection and repair through four general modes of action: increased oxygen supply/demand ratio, preconditioning, anti-inflammatory effects, and stimulation of angiogenesis. A novel means by which adenosine stimulates angiogenesis is the topic of the article by Desai et al.

Tissue Expansion in Soft-Tissue Reconstruction

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1984
Tissue expansion in soft-tissue reconstruction is described. The main principle is to develop donor tissue by expansion adjacent to the defect. Such a donor flap is doubled in size by intermittent injections of normal saline into the expander. After sharing the expanded flap for reconstruction, the donor site is well preserved, while the defect is ...
