Tissue-engineered fibrin-based heart valve
The BioTexValve demonstrates the potential of bio-inspired textile-reinforcement for the fabrication of functional tissue-engineered heart valves for the aortic position.
Scaffold-free tissue engineering to create a human neural tissue construct
This new tissue engineering approach may be useful to establish a technology for regenerative medicine and drug discovery using the patient’s own neurons.
A new near-infrared responsive drug carrier for imaging-guided chemotherapy
A promising multifunctional nanocarrier for opto-acoustic imaging-guided chemotherapy or phtotothermal therapy is presented.
Injectable ROS-responsive hydrogels for sustained drug delivery
Researchers designed and synthesized a novel ROS-responsive thermogelling hydrogel based on methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(L-methionine) diblock copolymers.
Synthetic polymer meshes offer great potential to translate IPSCs
A patient-derived stem cell source offers great potential for individual-tailored cell therapies and regenerative medicine.
Combination of immunotherapy and nanotechnology for improved cancer treatment
Researchers have proposed a new idea to deliver anti-cancer drugs to tumor sites by combining immunotherapy and nanoparticles.
Oxygen Nanocarrier for Combined Cancer Therapy
This nanocarrier shows excellent oxygen-carrying properties and ATP-responsive drug release, which makes it a potent agent for cancer therapy.
Tumor Prodrug to Monitor Therapeutic Success
A tumor prodrug, which is able to monitor drug release and therapeutic success in real time, is developed.
Improving the acceptance of implants by multifunctional coatings
Rejection or diminished functionability of implants are frequent problems. A new type of coating could limit associated infections and inflammations.
