Temperature Effects on Brain Tissue in Compression [PDF]
Extensive research has been carried out for at least 50 years to understand the mechanical properties of brain tissue in order to understand the mechanisms of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The observed large variability in experimental results may be due to the inhomogeneous nature of brain tissue and to the broad range of test conditions.

A mechanistic approach to design smart scaffolds for tissue engineering [PDF]
This thesis describes a library of novel 3D scaffolds designed and optimized for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. Tissue engineering aims at restoring or regenerating a deamaged tissue by combining cells, derived from a patient ...

Bioadditive manufacturing of hybrid tissue scaffolds for controlled release kinetics [PDF]
Development of engineered tissue scaffolds with superior control over cell-protein interactions is still very much infancy. Advancing through heterogeneous multifold scaffolds with controlled release fashion enables synchronization of regenerating tissue

Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Multi-Compartmental Biomaterial Scaffolds for Patterning Neural Tissue Organoids in Models of Neurodevelopment and Tissue Regeneration [PDF]
Biomaterials are becoming an essential tool in the study and application of stem cell research. Various types of biomaterials enable three-dimensional (3D) culture of stem cells, and, more recently, also enable high-resolution patterning and organization of multicellular architectures.

Calcium‐sensing receptor‐ and ADAM10‐mediated klotho shedding is regulated by tetraspanin 5
The G protein‐coupled calcium‐sensing receptor (CaSR) and the disintegrin/metalloprotease ADAM10 in the renal distal convoluted tubule control systemic levels of Klotho, a cell and tissue homeostasis‐preserving factor. We show that CaSR‐induced cleavage of membrane‐bound αKlotho by ADAM10 requires tetraspanin 5 (Tspan5), a scaffolding and chaperone ...

Strain stiffening universality in composite hydrogels and soft tissues [PDF]
Soft biological tissues exhibit a remarkable resilience to large mechanical loads, a property which is associated with the strain stiffening capability of the biopolymer networks that structurally support the tissues. Yet, recent studies have shown that composite systems such as tissues and blood clots exhibit mechanical properties that contradict ...

Human colon organoid differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells using an improved method
We compared established protocols to differentiate induced pluripotent stem cells into colon organoids and found that activation of bone morphogenetic protein 2 signaling induced gene expression of colon‐specific markers. Adenovirus‐mediated transduction of the transcription factors HOXD13 or SATB2 further enhanced colonic gene expression, suggesting ...

Automated Design of Tissue Engineering Scaffolds by Advanced CAD [PDF]
The design of scaffolds with an intricate and controlled internal structure represents a challenge for Tissue Engineering. Several scaffold manufacturing techniques allow the creation of complex and random architectures, but have little or no control ...
