Cell surface integrins play important roles in the survival, proliferation, migration and invasion of cancer cells, and is a viable target for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer1...
The removal of skin cancer lesions on the nose often results in the inevitable loss of nasal cartilage, where, autologous and synthetic implants were required for its repair or replacement...
Most of the mechanical solicitations within the human body are stress driven. As an example, vascular biomaterials are submitted to an average blood pressure of 100 mmHg...
Flexible and highly interconnected, multi-scale patterned chitosan porous membrane produced in situ from mussel shell to accelerate wound healing

We report a mussel shell-derived membrane with a multiscale ordered structure for wound dressing. As an ideal biologically derived dressing, it should be non-toxic and non-allergenic with an appropriate pore size to remove excess exudates...
Vascular tissue engineering seeks to produce biologically and mechanically responsive vascular substitutes using cells, scaffolds and bioreactors, to address the shortcomings of current vascular interventions such as coronary artery bypass grafts and to create pre-clinical testing platforms to study vascular pathologies...
