Pancreatic islet cells isolation and transplantation into the bone marrow

Sandrine Gerber

Bone marrow is currently being considered as an alternative site for pancreatic islet transplantation. The goal of the present review is to report preclinical and clinical studies taking advantage of this new implantation site. Preclinical studies in mice ...

Tunable and cell-responsive 3D poly(ethylene glycol) microenvironments for the development of tissue models

Stéphanie Elisabeth Metzger

The recapitulation of tissue organization and function in vitro is one of the main objectives of tissue engineering. Proper tissue function depends on the spatial assembly and interactions between key components such as cells, growth factors, signaling cue ...

Fibrin gels engineered with pro-angiogenic growth factors promote engraftment of pancreatic islets in extrahepatic sites in mice

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Alice Anna Tomei

With a view toward reduction of graft loss, we explored pancreatic islet transplantation within fibrin matrices rendered pro-angiogenic by incorporation of minimal doses of vascular endothelial growth factor-A165 and platelet-derived growth factor-BB prese ...

Bioengineering approaches to emulate the stem cell niche

Sylke Höhnel

Stem cell therapies hold tremendous potential for tissue and organ regeneration. Yet, there remains significant need for better ex vivo culture and manipulation methods. On the one hand, many tissue-specific stem cells cannot be propagated without causing ...

Tissue engineering for prenatal applications

Anna-Sofia Johanna Kiveliö

Fetal therapies have become available for a restricted number of life-threatening clinical conditions. Harnessing tissue engineering for prenatal applications has not been widely pursued even though isolating cells from fetal and extraembryonic tissues has ...

Strategies for improving the repair of focal cartilage defects

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Abdel Sayed

Articular cartilage, together with skin, was predicted to be one of the first tissues to be successfully engineered. However cartilage repair remains nowadays still elusive, as we are still not able to overcome the hurdles of creating biomaterials correspo ...

Microscale patterning of hydrogel stiffness through light-triggered uncaging of thiols

Matthias Lütolf, Katarzyna Mosiewicz, Laura Kolb

Mammalian cell behavior is strongly influenced by physical and chemical cues originating from the extracellular matrix (ECM). In vivo, ECM signals are displayed in a spatiotemporally complex fashion, often composed as gradients and in concentration profile ...

Device for application of medium to human tissue or animal body such as eye, has carrier which is provided with micro-cavity for containing medium in direct contact with object on which medium is to be applied

Philippe Renaud, Hubert van den Bergh, Yann Barrandon, Thomas Michael Braschler, Julien Graber

NOVELTY - The device has a carrier (1) which is provided with micro-cavity (2) for containing medium in direct contact with the object on which the medium is to be applied. Other carrier is provided with ring to protect the medium from environment when the ...

Advances in the design of macroporous polymer scaffolds for potential applications in dentistry

Philippe Renaud, Thomas Michael Braschler

A paradigm shift is taking place in medicine and dentistry from using synthetic implants and tissue grafts to a tissue engineering approach that uses degradable porous three-dimensional (3D) material hydrogels integrated with cells and bioactive factors to ...

Overcoming immunological barriers in regenerative medicine

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Regenerative therapies that use allogeneic cells are likely to encounter immunological barriers similar to those that occur with transplantation of solid organs and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Decades of experience in clinical transplantati ...

Epiphyseal Chondro-Progenitor Cell Therapy For Articular Cartilage Regeneration

Salim Elias Darwiche

Articular cartilage regeneration poses particularly tough challenges for implementing cell-based therapies. Many cell types have been investigated looking for a balanced combination of responsiveness and stability, yet techniques are still far from definin ...

New Tools for Hydrogel-Based 3D Bioprinting

Andrea Negro

The in vitro recapitulation of tissue and organ function represents one of the main objectives of tissue engineering. Developments in this field have numerous applications, from alleviating the shortage of donor organs to providingmore representative pla ...

Survival of Free and Encapsulated Human and Rat Islet Xenografts Transplanted into the Mouse Bone Marrow

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou

Bone marrow was recently proposed as an alternative and potentially immune-privileged site for pancreatic islet transplantation. The aim of the present study was to assess the survival and rejection mechanisms of free and encapsulated xenogeneic islets tra ...

Engineering the Regenerative Microenvironment with Biomaterials

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez

Modern synthetic biomaterials are being designed to integrate bioactive ligands within hydrogel scaffolds for cells to respond and assimilate within the matrix. These advanced biomaterials are only beginning to be used to simulate the complex spatio-tempor ...
