Electrospun PLGA fibre sheets incorporating fluorescent nanosensors: Self-reporting scaffolds for application in tissue engineering (2012)
Journal Article
Harrington, H. C., Rose, F. R., Reinwald, Y., Buttery, L. D., Ghaemmaghami, A. M., & Aylott, J. W. (2013). Electrospun PLGA fibre sheets incorporating fluorescent nanosensors: Self-reporting scaffolds for application in tissue engineering. Analytical Methods, 5(1), 68-71. https://doi.org/10.1039/c2ay25771h

Ratiometric analyte responsive nanosensors have been incorporated into electrospun poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) fibres to create self-reporting scaffolds. It has been demonstrated that the self-reporting scaffolds could be utilised to monitor...

Journal Article
Chau, D. Y., Brown, S. V., Mather, M. L., Hutter, V., Tint, N. L., Dua, H. S., …Ghaemmaghami, A. M. (2012). Tissue transglutaminase (TG-2) modified amniotic membrane: A novel scaffold for biomedical applications. Biomedical Materials, 7(4), Article 045011. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-6041/7/4/045011

The amniotic membrane (AM) is considered as a natural cell culture substrate and has occasionally been exploited in regenerative medicine especially for ocular surface reconstruction and dermal wound healing applications. However, its use is limited... Read More about Tissue transglutaminase (TG-2) modified amniotic membrane: A novel scaffold for biomedical applications.

Tissue transglutaminase treatment leads to concentration-dependent changes in dendritic cell phenotype - implications for the role of transglutaminase in coeliac disease (2012)
Journal Article
Dalleywater, W. J., Chau, D. Y., & Ghaemmaghami, A. M. (2012). Tissue transglutaminase treatment leads to concentration-dependent changes in dendritic cell phenotype - implications for the role of transglutaminase in coeliac disease. BMC Immunology, 13, Article 20. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2172-13-20

Dendritic cells (DCs) are part of the innate immune system with a key role in initiating and modulating T cell mediated immune responses. Coeliac disease is caused by inappropriate activation of such a response leading to small intestinal inflammatio...

Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis (2012)
Conference Proceeding
Chen, C. A., Chen, C. H., Ghaemmaghami, A. M., & Fan, S. K. (2012). Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis. In 2012 7th IEEE International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems (NEMS) (183-186). https://doi.org/10.1109/NEMS.2012.6196752

The research of immune cells is fundamental to many biological studies. Dendritic cells have the ability to induce a primary immune response in resting naive T cells. The aim of this work is to separate the activated T cells from dendritic cells on a... Read More about Separation of dendritic and T cells using electrowetting and dielectrophoresis.
