Complementary strategies to promote the regeneration of bone-ligament transitions using graded electrospun scaffolds
… properties between graft and bone. Specifically, conventional grafts (e.g., hamstring tendon) are unable to recapitulate intricate gradients in mechano-chemical properties and extracellular matrix (ECM) architecture found at natural bone-ligament (B-L) transitions, and thus result in …

Strategies for the Fabrication of Cellularized Micro-Fiber/Hydrogel Composites for Ligament Tissue Engineering
Partial or complete tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can greatly afflict quality of life and often require surgical reconstruction with autograft or allograft tissue to restore native knee biomechanical function. However, limitations exist with these treatments that include donor site …

Delivery of hiPSC Derived Cardiomyocytes via an Injectable Nanofibrous Gelatin Polyurethane Composite Scaffold for Heart Tissue Repair
Cardiac cell therapy, utilizing contractile human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, including embryonic stem cell-derived (hESC-CM) and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM), has shown promising results in treating ischemic cardiomyopathy and heart failure. …

An electrospinning apparatus for the production of heterogeneous scaffolds and their application in cartilage regeneration
The human body contains a vast array of soft and hard tissues, each with their own unique set of physical, chemical, mechanical, and electrical properties. It is the combination of these tissues that allows the human body to function as it does. However, these tissues are subject to wear, fatigue, …

Effect of Electrospun Mesh Diameter, Mesh Alignment, and Mechanical Stretch on Bone Marrow Stromal Cells for Ligament Tissue Engineering
… onto electrospun scaffolds, processing them into cords that allow cell infiltration, and conditioning them with uniaxial cyclic stretch. These steps were addressed in three complimentary studies to establish new methods to engineer a tissue with ligament-like cells depositing organized …
