The scarcity of transplant allografts for diseased organs has prompted efforts at tissue regeneration using seeded scaffolds, an approach hampered by the enormity cell types and complex architectures. Our goal was to decellularize intact in a manner that retained matrix signal differentiating pluripotent cells. We decellularized rat kidneys preserved intricate architecture them with murine embryonic stem cells antegrade through artery or retrograde ureter. Primitive precursor populated...
T he present study evaluated the potential for reestablishment of connective tissue attachment after exclusion gingival and epithelium during healing periodontal surgery in a dog model. Buccal mucoperiosteal flaps were elevated all four premolar regions two dogs. The buccal bone was reduced to approximately 25% its original level on 24 roots. Before replaced sutured, membranes adjusted cover exposed root surfaces. On eight surfaces Millipore® filters used biodegradable polylactic acid used....

Introduction To address transplant organ shortage, a promising strategy is to decellularize kidneys in manner that the scaffold retains signals for seeded pluripotent precursor cells differentiate and recapitulate native structures: matrix-to-cell signaling followed by cell-cell cell-matrix interactions, thereby remodeling replacing original matrix. This would reduce antigenicity enable xeno-allografts.Results DAPI-labeled arterial vessels glomeruli were positive both endothelial lineage...
Feraheme, is a recently FDA-cleared superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPION)-based MRI contrast agent that also employed in the treatment of deficiency anemia. Feraheme nanoparticles have hydrodynamic diameter 30 nm and consist crystallites complexed with low molecular weight, semi-synthetic carbohydrate. These features are attractive for other potential biomedical applications such as magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH), since carboxylated polymer coating affords functionalization...
A major hurdle in most current gene therapy modalities is the ability to transduce target tissues at very high efficiencies that ultimately lead therapeutic levels of transgene expression. We have developed a novel method recombinant adeno-associated virus 2 (rAAV) delivery results increased vector transduction using microspheres reversibly conjugated rAAV vectors. hypothesize conjugation should result higher effective concentration as well longer relative exposure time cells it moves...
Magnetic nanoparticle-based gene transfection has been shown to be effective in combination with both viral vectors and non-viral agents. In these systems, therapeutic or reporter genes are attached magnetic nanoparticles which then focused the target site/cells via high-field/high-gradient magnets. The technique efficient rapid for vitro compares well cationic lipid-based reagents, producing good overall levels lower doses shorter times. spite of its potential advantages (particularly vivo...

Background— Up to 5% of the population may have a brain aneurysm. If aneurysm ruptures, there is >50% mortality, and more than one third survivors are dependent. Brain aneurysms detected before rupture can be treated prevent rupture, or ruptured rerupture. Endovascular coiling treatment choice for some aneurysms; however, up quarter recur. The coiled that do not recur characterized by inflammatory intra-aneurysmal tissue healing; therefore, we studied biology this process, specifically...

We describe a novel technique of using fluorescent silica nanoparticles (FSNPs) to detect over-expressed folate receptors, as typical for certain malignancies (metastatic adenocarcinoma, pituitary adenoma and others). Using Stöber's method with some modification, 135 nm size FSNPs were synthesized by hydrolysis co-condensation reaction tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), fluorescein labeled (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTS) water-dispersible silane reagent, (3-trihydroxysilyl)propyl...
