Researchers use biodegradable nanocellulose with additional functionalities to produce implants for cartilage diseases using 3D printing.
Stem Cell-Macrophage Interactions with Ferumoxytol and Ferumoxytol-derived Nanoparticles
“Off the shelf” allogeneic stem cell transplants and stem cell nano‐composites are being used for the treatment of degenerative bone diseases. However, major and minor histocompatibility antigens of therapeutic cell transplants can be recognized as foreign and lead to their rejection by the host immune system.
