Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a kind of connective tissue in the cell microenvironment, which
is of great significance to tissue development. ECM in muscle fiber niche consists of three …

Increasing public awareness of foodborne illnesses, factory farming, and the ecological
footprint of the meat industry, has generated the need for animal-free meat alternatives. In …

In natural microenvironment, various proteins containing adhesive ligands in fibrous and
non‐fibrous structures dynamically couple and decouple to regulate stem cell fate. Herein …

Background Skeletal muscle contributes to roughly 40% of lean body mass, and its loss
contributes to morbidity and mortality in a variety of pathogenic conditions. Significant …

In vitro models of skeletal muscle are critically needed to elucidate disease mechanisms,
identify therapeutic targets and test drugs pre-clinically. However, culturing skeletal muscle …

A wound dressing based on a thermosensitive hydrogel shows advantages over performed
traditional dressings, such as rapid reversible sol–gel–sol transition properties and the …

A wide range of synthetic and natural biomaterials is available for skeletal muscle tissue
engineering. One class of natural biomaterials consists of the extracellular matrix (ECM) …

Abstract 3D bioprinting has developed tremendously in the last couple of years and enables
the fabrication of simple, as well as complex, tissue models. The international space …

Plant-derived cellulose scaffolds constitute a highly viable and interesting biomaterial. They
retain a high flexibility in shape and structure, present the ability to tune surface …

The in vitro production of animal-derived foods via cellular agriculture is emerging as a key
solution to global food security challenges. Here, the potential for fiber-based scaffolds …
