Experimental and computational investigation of adhesion junction mechanosensation
(2017-02-28)
Bone is an adaptive tissue that remodels in response to the mechanical loads placed upon it during normal daily activity. This remodelling process is vital to maintaining the mechanical integrity, mass and structure of ...

Background
The number of post-treatment cancer survivors in Ireland is set to increase in coming years, due to advances in screening and treatment. This group will require ongoing supportive care as many will experience ...
Integrating the old and new: smart thermoresponsive surfaces and 3D fabrication technologies for tissue engineering
(2017-05-08)
One promising direction of regenerative medicine is the development of cell sheet-based tissue-like constructs. The cell sheets preserve ECM and cell−cell junctions. This may greatly support cell adherence to damaged organ ...
Cellular response to stress: role of autophagy and cell death in caspase-9 deficient cells
(2017-10-31)
Chronic or unresolved stress can lead to cell death, and induction of apoptosis is crucial when the cellular adaptive mechanisms are not able to resolve persistent stress. Malfunction of the apoptotic process caused by ...
