(Springer, 2025-02-19)
Article
Open Access
Covenantee: Universitetet i Oslo / Fundació Eurecat / Microdent Implant System / Centro de Investigación Biomédica en Red. Bioingeniería, Biomateriales y Nanomedicina / Institut de Bioenginyeria de Catalunya / Università degli Studi di Udine / Centre d'Oftalmologia Barraquer / Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona / Universitat Internacional de CatalunyaThe Boston keratoprosthesis (BKPro) is a critical device for vision restoration in complex cases of corneal blindness, although its long-term retention is challenged by infection risks. This study aims to enhance the ... -
Silica replicas derived from mammalian cells as an innovative approach to physically direct cell lineage decisions of mesenchymal stem cells
(2023-10-25)
Article
Open Access
Covenantee: Danmarks tekniske universitetBy means of a “live-cell” template strategy, silica replicas displaying the same morphology and topography of the mammalian cells used as templates are fabricated. The replicas are used as substrates to direct the ... -
3D-Printed shape memory poly(alkylene terephthalate) scaffolds as cardiovascular stents revealing enhanced endothelialization
(2024-05-17)
Article
Open Access
Covenantee: Universiteit Gent / Vrije Universiteit BrusselCardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death and current treatments such as stents still suffer from disadvantages. Balloon expansion causes damage to the arterial wall and limited and delayed endothelialization ... -
