3D printing of hyaluronic acid scaffolds for tissue engineering applications
… modulus of articular cartilage. Porcine adipose derived stem cells (ASCs) are cultured on HAGM scaffolds with the aim of inducing chondrogenic differentiation. Cartilage formation on 3D printed scaffolds is better distributed within the scaffolds relative to 2D controls, and new tissue is …

Adipose Tissue And Its Role In Modulating The Mammary Tumor Microenvironment
Targeting cancer cells has been the primary focus of most cancer therapies, and only recently has the interaction of cancer cells with host stroma been recognized as a driving force for cancer evolution. In the presence of tumor-derived physicochemical cues, the host stroma fails to fulfill its …

Development of Delivery Strategy for Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in the Treatment of Myocardial Infarction
Cell-based therapies involving adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have shown promise in stimulating cardiovascular regeneration, including in the treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic heart disease. However, previous studies involving the delivery of ASCs following MI have indicated …

PHOSPHODIESTERASE-5 INHIBITION: A NOVEL STRATEGY TO IMPROVE STEM CELL THERAPY IN THE HEART
… enhancing the therapeutic potential of stem cells injected into ischemic microenvironments by novel preconditioning (PC) techniques is critical for improving cellular therapy. Recent studies have shown that inhibition of phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) is a powerful strategy to precondition …

Characterization and application of adipose derived stem cells following burn injury
… prolonged inflammatory response in subcutaneous adipose tissue that modulates signaling in adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), which hold potential for healing burn wounds or generating skin substitutes. Using a 60% rat scald burn model, we investigated the cellular source of inflammation within …

Functional Tissue Engineering of Cartilage Using Adipose-derived Stem Cells
… a functional tissue engineering approach using adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). ASCs are an abundant progenitor cell source easily obtained through a minimally invasive liposuction procedure. When appropriately stimulated, ASCs have demonstrated significant potential for chondrogenic …
