Co-cultures and cell sheet engineering as relevant tools to improve the outcome of bone tissue engineering strategies
… it is quite clear that the understanding of the cellular interactions that regulate the homeostasis and regeneration of this remarkable tissue is essential for a successful Tissue Engineering strategy. The in vitro study of these cellular interactions relies on co-culture systems, a tremendously …

Assessment of the biocompatibility, stability, and suitability of novel thermoresponsive films for the rapid generation of cellular constructs
… polymers (SRP) are of great interest in the bioengineering community due to their use in applications such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. One example of an SRP is poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) or pNIPAM. This SRP has the capability of changing its conformation with a slight temperature …

Engineering mesenchymal stem cell sheets on functional polyelectrolyte multilayer substrates
Cell sheet engineering is a novel and effective means of forming tissue substitutes in regenerative medicine. This technology allows for the manufacturing of cell sheets for either direct transplantation or the assembly of three-dimensionally organized tissue-mimicking structures. In the last …

A Smart Solution for Tissue Engineering Applications
… was investigated as substrate for the so-named cell sheet engineering. With our procedure cell sheets can be grown on the gelatine gel and, successively, they can be integrally transferred to a different surface, with gelatine being removed by melting at 37 °C, without any proteolytic enzyme. …

POLY(N-ISOPROPYL ACRYLAMIDE)-COATED SURFACES: INVESTIGATION OF CYTOTOXICITY WITH MAMMALIAN CELLS AND THE MECHANISM OF CELL DETACHMENT
… temperature range to release intact mammalian cell monolayers capable of being used to engineer tissues. Two factors currently limit the use of cell sheets for this purpose: 1) although the NIPAM monomer is toxic, it is unclear (and highly contested) whether its polymerized form is toxic as …
