Cartilage stress relaxation induced by intra-tissue transport of cationic nanoparticles : implications for post-traumatic osteoarthritis drug delivery
… positive charge make it a viable candidate for transport into and through articular cartilage, one of the most affected tissues in OA. Avidin has been shown to have a high uptake into and long retention time within cartilage, and is also non-toxic to chondrocytes. The goal of this thesis was to …

Modulation of Brain Tissue Transport and Endothelial Glycocalyx and Tight Junctions of the Blood-Brain Barrier by Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
… interface between blood circulation and brain tissue. Brain extracellular space (ECS) is a narrow microenvironment which surrounds every cell in the central nervous system (CNS). ECS occupies ~20% of brain tissue and contains interstitial fluid with ions and negatively charged extracellular …

Specific and general binding in arterial drug delivery
… binding targets yield drastically different tissue transport, retention and ultimately efficacy independent of their putative biological effects. Our central hypothesis is that both specific and general binding of drugs to tissue proteins, as mediated by drug-specific physiochemical …

Multiscale spatio-temporal modeling of cell population in tissue architecture and drug delivery nanoparticles
… is connected with the higher scale behavior of tissue or organism. Integrating the dynamics and information at different time and space can give a fundamental physiological understanding of the higher level phenomena. But complex features, functions, interconnectivity between different scales …

Structure-functionality relationship of collagen scaffolds for tissue engineering
<p>Tissue engineering is a promising technology that enables scientists to create artificial organs or replace damaged tissues using animal cells and other components. For successful tissue regeneration, many factors should be taken into account, however, three components are most crucial: cell, …
