3D-printed microfluidic devices.
Reza Amin,Stephanie Knowlton,Alexander Hart,Bekir Yenilmez,Fariba Ghaderinezhad,Sara Katebifar,Michael Messina,Ali Khademhosseini,Ali Khademhosseini,Ali Khademhosseini,Savas Tasoglu +10 more
TL;DR: A broad range of approaches for the application of 3D printing technology to fabrication of micro-scale lab-on-a-chip devices are discussed, making microfluidics more accessible to users.
Tendon tissue engineering: biomechanical considerations.
Devina Jaiswal,Laurie Yousman,Maxwell Neary,Emily Fernschild,Brennen Zolnoski,Sara Katebifar,Swetha Rudraiah,Augustus D. Mazzocca,Sangamesh G. Kumbar,Sangamesh G. Kumbar +9 more
TL;DR: This review highlights the origin of tendon tissue, its ability to sense forces from its microenvironment, and the biological machinery that helps in mechanosensation, and focuses on use of bioreactors that aid in understanding cell-microenvironment interactions and enable the design of mechanically competent tendon tissue.

Load-bearing biodegradable polycaprolactone-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)- beta tri-calcium phosphate scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration.
Alok Kumar,Yiren Zhang,Amalia Terracciano,Xiao Zhao,Tsan-Liang Su,Dilhan M. Kalyon,Sara Katebifar,Sangamesh G. Kumbar,Xiaojun Yu +8 more
TL;DR: The overall porosity and the pore sizes increased with the dissolution time indicating that the formation of in-situ pores can indeed enable the migration of cells followed by vascularization and bone growth.
Nanofiber matrix formulations for the delivery of Exendin-4 for tendon regeneration: In vitro and in vivo assessment
Sama Abdulmalik,Jack Gallo,John Nip,Sara Katebifar,Michael R. Arul,Amir Lebaschi,Lucas N. Munch,J Bartly,Shilpa Choudhary,Ivo Kalajzic,Yeshavanth Kumar Banasavadi-Siddegowdae,Syam P. Nukavarapu,Sangamesh G. Kumbar +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a peptide growth factor (exendin-4; Ex-4) was used to enhance a nanofiber matrix in a tendon injury model to avoid burst release and protect the drug.
