Thoughts on cartilage tissue engineering: A 21st century perspective

Dominique Pioletti, Peyman Karami, Theofanis Stampoultzis

In mature individuals, hyaline cartilage demonstrates a poor intrinsic capacity for repair, thus even minor defects could result in progressive degeneration, impeding quality of life. Although numerous attempts have been made over the past years for the ad ...

Engineered Extracellular Matrices with Integrated Wireless Microactuators to Study Mechanobiology

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Erik Mailand, Nikolaos Bouklas, Fazil Emre Uslu

Mechanobiology explores how forces regulate cell behaviors and what molecular machinery are responsible for the sensing, transduction, and modulation of mechanical cues. To this end, probing of cells cultured on planar substrates has served as a primary ex ...

Method and system for analysis of organic material by auto-cathodoluminescence

Hans Mattias Larsson, Marcin Stefan Zielinski

Analyzing isolated collagen gel samples of a rat-tail and bovine hide, we demonstrated in situ detection of spectrally deconvoluted auto-cathodoluminescence signatures of specific molecular content with precise spatial localization over a maximum field of ...

Morphogenesis Guided by 3D Patterning of Growth Factors in Biological Matrices

Matthias Lütolf, Nicolas Antoine Vincent Broguiere, Riccardo Rizzo

Three-dimensional (3D) control over the placement of bioactive cues is fundamental to understand cell guidance and develop engineered tissues. Two-photon patterning (2PP) provides such placement at micro- to millimeter scale, but nonspecific interactions b ...

Extracellular Matrix Production by Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Hydrogels Facilitates Cell Spreading and Is Inhibited by FGF-2

Martin Ehrbar, Queralt Vallmajó Martín

In native tissues, the interaction between cells and the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) is reciprocal, as cells not only receive signals from the ECM but also actively remodel it through secretion of cell-derived ECM. However, very little is known ...

Ligand Binding to the Collagen VI Receptor Triggers a Talin-to-RhoA Switch that Regulates Receptor Endocytosis

Béatrice Kunz, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Matteo Dal Peraro, Shixu Yan, Luciano Andres Abriata

Capillary morphogenesis gene 2 (CMG2/ANTXR2) is a cell surface receptor for both collagen VI and anthrax toxin. Biallelic loss-of-function mutations in CMG2 lead to a severe condition, hyaline fibromatosis syndrome (HFS). We have here dissected a network o ...

The secreted protease Adamts18 links hormone action to activation of the mammary stem cell niche

Philipp Bucher, Cathrin Brisken, Renuga Devi Rajaram, Giovanna Ambrosini, Marian Caikovski, Rachel Marcone, Céline Berthe Constantin, Dalya Ataca, Marie Shamseddin, Patrik Aouad, Csaba Ferenc László

Estrogens and progesterone control breast development and carcinogenesis via their cognate receptors expressed in a subset of luminal cells in the mammary epithelium. How they control the extracellular matrix, important to breast physiology and tumorigenes ...

Influenza A viruses use multivalent sialic acid clusters for cell binding and receptor activation

Suliana Manley, Christian Sieben

Influenza A virus (IAV) binds its host cell using the major viral surface protein hemagglutinin (HA). HA recognizes sialic acid, a plasma membrane glycan that functions as the specific primary attachment factor (AF). Since sialic acid alone cannot fulfill ...

The ULK1/2 and AMPK Inhibitor SBI-0206965 Blocks AICAR and Insulin-Stimulated Glucose Transport

The small molecule kinase inhibitor SBI-0206965 was originally described as a specific inhibitor of ULK1/2. More recently, it was reported to effectively inhibit AMPK and several studies now report its use as an AMPK inhibitor. Currently, we investigated t ...

Recapitulating macro-scale tissue self-organization through organoid bioprinting

Matthias Lütolf, Moritz Hofer, Mikhail Nikolaev, Jonathan Brassard

A 3D bioprinting approach has been developed to facilitate tissue morphogenesis by directly depositing organoid-forming stem cells in an extracellular matrix, with the ability to generate intestinal epithelia and branched vascular tissue constructs. ...

The heparin binding domain of von Willebrand factor binds to growth factors and promotes angiogenesis in wound healing

Matthias Lütolf, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Yoji Tabata, Jun Ishihara, Kazuto Fukunaga

During wound healing, the distribution, availability, and signaling of growth factors (GFs) are orchestrated by their binding to extracellular matrix components in the wound microenvironment. Extracellular matrix proteins have been shown to modulate angiog ...
