The increasing popularity of 3D cell culture models is being driven by the demand for more
in vivo-like conditions with which to study the biochemistry and biomechanics of numerous …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is not just a three-dimensional scaffold that provides stable
support for all cells in the lungs, but also an important component of chronic fibrotic airway …

Bioactive hydrogel materials have great potential for applications in bone tissue
engineering. However, fabrication of functional hydrogels that mimic the natural bone …

In recent years, there has been increased interest in the use of cellular spheroids,
microtissues, and organoids as biological building blocks to engineer functional tissues and …

The therapeutic capabilities of autologous stem cells can be fully exploited if their survival
after implantation is improved. For the first time, we compared three hydrogels, with different …

The use of synthetic extracellular matrices (ECMs) in fundamental in vitro cell culture studies
has been instrumental for investigating the interplay between cells and matrix components …

Cell-instructive biomaterials are an essential component in tissue engineering and
regenerative medicine. In the past three decades since the term “Tissue Engineering” was …

Skeletal stem and progenitor cells (SSPCs) are the multi-potent, self-renewing cell lineages
that form the hematopoietic environment and adventitial structures of the skeletal tissues …

In this study, we demonstrate a unique and promising approach to access peptide-based
diverse nanostructures in a single gelator regime that is capable of exhibiting different …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic environment that is primarily built up from
fibrous proteins (eg, elastins, fibronectins, collagens, and laminins) and plays a vital role in …
