Induction of Nephron–Ductal Dual Lineages via Early Retinoic Acid Signaling Establishes a Platform for Fully Patterned Kidney Organoids

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified, co‐culture‐free protocol for kidney organoids that generate segmented nephrons, including collecting ducts, has been developed. Early low‐dose RA with FGF9 induces balanced anterior–posterior IM patterning and dual UE/MM lineage commitment. BMP7 enhances nephron progenitor maturation.

Umbilical hernia in patients with liver cirrhosis: A surgical challenge.

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2016
Umbilical hernia occurs in 20% of the patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with ascites. Due to the enormous intraabdominal pressure secondary to the ascites, umbilical hernia in these patients has a tendency to enlarge rapidly and to complicate ...

An Innovative “Tooth‐On‐Chip” Microfluidic Device Emulating the Structure and Physiology of the Dental Pulp Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a “tooth‐on‐chip” device that mimics dental pulp tissue. By co‐culturing key cell types, it recreates vascular networks, stem cell niches, the odontoblast/dentine interface, and trigeminal innervation. This innovative platform provides a unique model of dental pulp structure and physiology, with significant potential for accelerating

Umbilical Cord Care in the Newborn Infant

open access: yesPediatrics, 2016
Postpartum infections remain a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. A high percentage of these infections may stem from bacterial colonization of the umbilicus, because cord care practices vary in reflection of cultural traditions

Uniting 4D Printing and Melt Electrowriting for the Enhancement of Regenerative Small Diameter Vascular Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid 4D printing strategy enables the fabrication of shape‐morphing, mechanically reinforced tubular constructs for vascular tissue engineering. By combining alginate‐methylcellulose hydrogels with melt electrowritten polycaprolactone fibers and protein‐based functionalization, this platform supports spatially organized co‐cultures of fibroblasts ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis within Placental Villous Mesenchyme and Umbilical Cord Stroma Is Associated with Adverse Pregnancy Outcome

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Intrauterine presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), a common oral pathobiont, is implicated in preterm birth. Our aim was to determine if the location of Pg within placental and/or umbilical cord sections was associated with a specific delivery ...

Engineering Volumetric Tissue Analogs via Assembly of Endothelial Cell‐Covered Spheroidal Microtissues

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An engineering strategy to fabricate highly vascularized volumetric tissues with capillary networks is developed. Endothelial cell‐covered spheroidal microtissues with high structural integrity are efficiently produced using bioprinting technology. These spheroidal microtissues are then assembled and cultured under perfusion conditions, resulting in ...

Granular Hydrogels as Modular Biomaterials: From Structural Design to Biological Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Granular hydrogels are now emerging as promising biomaterials due to their inherent microporousity, injectability, and modularity. They have shown improvements in cell viability and migration, cellular/tissue infiltration, host tissue integration, mitigated foreign body response, and tissue regeneration.
