A 3D printable tissue adhesive. [PDF]
AbstractTissue adhesives are promising alternatives to sutures and staples for joining tissues, sealing defects, and immobilizing devices. However, existing adhesives mostly take the forms of glues or hydrogels, which offer limited versatility. We report a direct-ink-write 3D printable tissue adhesive which can be used to fabricate bioadhesive patches ...

Epithelial Migration and Non-adhesive Periderm Are Required for Digit Separation during Mammalian Development. [PDF]
The fusion of digits or toes, syndactyly, can be part of complex syndromes, including van der Woude syndrome. A subset of van der Woude cases is caused by dominant-negative mutations in the epithelial transcription factor Grainyhead like-3 (GRHL3), and ...

Tissue adhesives for wound closure
AbstractTissue adhesives have raised much attention from scientists in recent years. They have been extensively utilized in various medical fields, such as wound closure, due to the advantages of being simple, time‐saving, and avoiding the problems and complications associated with surgical sutures.

Intermediate filament–membrane attachments function synergistically with actin-dependent contacts to regulate intercellular adhesive strength [PDF]
By tethering intermediate filaments (IFs) to sites of intercellular adhesion, desmosomes facilitate formation of a supercellular scaffold that imparts mechanical strength to a tissue.

Classification review of dental adhesive systems: from the IV generation to the universal type [PDF]
Adhesive dentistry has undergone great progress in the last decades. In light of minimal-invasive dentistry, this new approach promotes a more conservative cavity design, which relies on the effectiveness of current enamel-dentine adhesives.

Tissue adhesives and sealants [PDF]
Rapid and secure tissue adherence using adhesives or sealants is an attractive concept. Cyanoacrylates, marine adhesive proteins, fibrin-based sealants, and mixtures of polypeptides and proteoglycans to form "laser solders" are just some of the products and technologies that have been used.
