The novel Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused respiratory infection, resulting in more than two million deaths globally and hospitalizing thousands of people by March 2021. A considerable percentage of the SARS-CoV...
Protein/peptide-based hydrogel biomaterial inks with the ability to incorporate various cells and mimic the extracellular matrix’s function are promising candidates for 3D printing and biomaterials engineering. This is because proteins contain multip...
Among the functional limitations associated with hip osteoarthritis (OA), the alteration of gait capabilities represents one of the most invalidating as it may seriously compromise the quality of life of the affected individual. The use of quantitati...
It is widely accepted that chondral defects in articular cartilage of adult joints are never repaired spontaneously, which is considered to be one of the major causes of age-related degenerative joint disorders, such as osteoarthritis. Since mobiliza...
Innovative tissue engineering biomimetic hydrogels based on hydrophilic polymers have been investigated for their physical and mechanical properties. 5% to 25% by volume loading PHEMA-nanosilica glassy hybrid samples were equilibrated at 37 °C in aqu...
Lcn2 overexpression in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) can lead to cancer progression by inducing the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and enhancing tumor angiogenesis. In this study, we engineered a PEGylated liposomal system encapsulating lipoca...
Dolastatin derivatives, represented by monomethylauristatin E (MMAE), have been translated in clinic with a form of antibody–drug conjugate; however, their potential in nanoparticle systems has not been well established due to the potential risk of i...
