Sequestration of rhBMP-2 into Self-Assembled Polyelectrolyte Complexes Promotes Anatomic Localization of New Bone in a Porcine Model of Spinal Reconstructive Surgery.
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2014-02-27)Efficient and therapeutically safe delivery of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) continues to be a central issue in bone tissue engineering. Recent evidence indicates that layer-by-layer self-assembly ... -
Spinal cord injury in vitro: Modelling axon growth inhibition
(Elsevier, 2010-06)Over the past three decades, tremendous progress has been made in elucidating mechanisms underlying regenerative failure after spinal cord injury and in devising therapeutic approaches to promote functional nerve regeneration. ... -
Thermosensitive hydrogel for prolonged delivery of lentiviral vector expressing neurotrophin-3 in vitro
(Wiley, 2011-11-01)Background The development of tissue engineering scaffolds for gene delivery has the potential to enhance gene transfer efficiency and safety via controlled temporal and spatial delivery. Lentiviral delivery can be carried ... -
Type II collagen-hyaluronan hydrogel - a step towards a scaffold for intervertebral disc tissue engineering
(European Cells & Materials Ltd, 2010-09-06)Intervertebral disc regeneration strategies based on stem cell differentiation in combination with the design of functional scaffolds is an attractive approach towards repairing/regenerating the nucleus pulposus. The ...
