A novel bioprinted cardiac tissue-on-a-chip with a gelatin and fibrin based bioink laden with human induced pluripotent stem cell derived-cardiomyocytes
comments
Traditional bioinks used for bioprinting do not generally possess high fidelity and biocompatibility, and hence, fail to reproduce the complexity in biological organs or tissues in vivo...
Lipid-modified low molecular weight polyethyleneimines LMW PEIs are promising non-viral gene delivery systems that have been successfully explored for the treatment of various diseases through the delivery of plasmid DNA pDNA or mRNA to expression therapeutic proteins thereby restoring the defective protein, for the knockdown of aberrant proteins using RNA interference RNAi with short interfering RNA siRNA or for the complete knockout of the gene using CRISPR technology 1, 2 ...
