Media(ted) fabrications: How the science-media symbiosis helped ‘sell’ cord banking [PDF]
, 2006 This paper considers the problematic role of the science–media symbiosis in the dissemination of misleading and emotionally manipulative information regarding services offered by CordBank, New Zealand's only umbilical cord blood banking facility. As this

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Most in vitro cancer models lack cellular diversity, functional complexity, and clinical relevance. This work highlights the generation of an innovative dynamic tetraculture with autologous patient‐derived cells within a vascularized tumor‐on‐chip, as well as the recapitulation of endothelial anergy features induced by the tumor microenvironment ...

Engineering the Future of Restorative Clinical Peripheral Nerve Surgery
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.What if damaged nerves could regenerate more effectively? This review unveils cutting‐edge strategies to restore nerve function, from biomaterial scaffolds and bioactive molecules to living engineered tissues. By accelerating axonal regrowth, preserving Schwann cells, and enhancing connectivity, these approaches are reshaping nerve repair—offering new ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study developed 3D‐printable THA‐Col microgels for delivering BMP‐7 cmRNA. The key result is that hMSCs transfected on the biomaterials showed BMP‐7 secretion levels comparable to pre‐transfected hMSCs, therefore introducing a cmRNA‐activated matrix to promote bone healing.

Autologous Stem Cell Transplantations
Annals of Medicine, 1996 High-dose treatments with autologous stem cell support have increasingly been used to improve the treatment results of a variety of haematological and nonhaematological malignancies. High-dose treatments cause severe bone marrow injury, which can effectively be rescued with infusion of a sufficient number of stem cells. Stem cells can be collected from

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a controllable degradation system for Mg‐based biomaterials using sputtering technology, marking a significant advancement in nerve regeneration research. The Mg‐sputtered nerve conduits demonstrate enhanced biocompatibility, biofunctionality, mechanical compatibility, and precise magnesium release, resulting in improved axonal ...

The glia response after peripheral nerve injury: A comparison between Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells and their uses for neural regenerative therapies [PDF]
, 2017 The peripheral nervous system (PNS) exhibits a much larger capacity for regeneration than the central nervous system (CNS). One reason for this difference is the difference in glial cell types between the two systems.

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

A Comparison of Allogeneic and Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia [PDF]
International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2009 Introduction: Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) is a clonal malignant disease of hematopoietic tissue. The early use of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) for AML was for patients with advanced stages of disease, usually while in relapse, in
