The influence of body temperature on tissue stiffness, blood perfusion, and water diffusion in the mouse brain

Publication date: Available online 25 June 2019Source: Acta BiomaterialiaAuthor(s): Gergely Bertalan, Philipp Boehm-Sturm, Stefanie Schreyer, Anna-Sophie Morr, Barbara Steiner, Heiko Tzschätzsch, Jürgen Braun, Jing Guo, Ingolf SackAbstractWhile hypothermia of the brain is used to reduce neuronal damage in patients with conditions such as traumatic brain injury or stroke, little is known about how temperature affects the biophysical properties of in vivo brain tissue. Therefore, we measured shear...

An Injectable and Tumor-specific Responsive Hydrogel with Tissue-adhesive and Nanomedicine-releasing Abilities for Precise Locoregional Chemotherapy

Publication date: Available online 25 June 2019Source: Acta BiomaterialiaAuthor(s): Di Wu, Xiaoguang Shi, Fuli Zhao, Sergio Tomas Fernando Chilengue, Liandong Deng, Anjie Dong, Deling Kong, Weiwei Wang, Jianhua ZhangAbstractLocoregional chemotherapy, especially using implantable hydrogel depots to sustainably deliver chemotherapeutics at tumor site, has shown great potential for improving antitumor efficacy and reducing systemic toxicity. However, the hydrogel applications are limited by some intrinsic...

Microporous scaffolds support assembly and differentiation of pancreatic progenitors into β-cell clusters

Publication date: Available online 25 June 2019Source: Acta BiomaterialiaAuthor(s): Richard L. Youngblood, Joshua P. Sampson, Kimberly R. Lebioda, Lonnie D. SheaAbstractHuman pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) represent a promising cell source for the development of β-cells for use in therapies for type 1 diabetes. Current culture approaches provide signals to mimic a temporal control of organogenesis to drive the differentiation towards β-cells. However, spatial control may represent an opportunity...
