Simplifying the extracellular matrix for 3‐D cell culture and tissue engineering: A pragmatic approach
TL;DR: It is argued that the standard for 3‐D cell culture should be bio‐inspired, biomimetic materials that can be used “as is” in drug discovery, toxicology, cell banking, and ultimately in medicine, and one such material is described: a covalently crosslinked, biodegradable, simplified mimic of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that permits 3-D culture of cells in vitro and enables tissue formation in vivo.
Biocompatibility and stability of disulfide-crosslinked hyaluronan films.
TL;DR: The disulfide-crosslinked HA films were less than 30% resorbed after 42 days in vivo, and histochemical and cytochemical analysis indicated that the films were well-tolerated with mild inflammatory response at both sites of implantation.
Intracellular delivery of phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates using polyamine carriers
TL;DR: This simple intracellular delivery system allows for the efficient translocation of biologically active PIP(n)s, inositol phosphates, and their fluorescent derivatives into living cells in a physiologically relevant context.
Prevention of Peritendinous Adhesions Using a Hyaluronan-Derived Hydrogel Film Following Partial-Thickness Flexor Tendon Injury
TL;DR: Both the gross anatomic and histologic results revealed that Carbylan™‐SX film was statistically superior to Seprafilm® and Car bylan™-SX gel in preventing tendon adhesion formation.
