IL-15 promotes human myogenesis and mitigates the detrimental effects of TNFα on myotube development (2017)
Journal Article
O’Leary, M. F., Wallace, G. R., Bennett, A. J., Tsintzas, K., & Jones, S. W. (in press). IL-15 promotes human myogenesis and mitigates the detrimental effects of TNFα on myotube development. Scientific Reports, 7(1), Article 12997. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-13479-w

Studies in murine cell lines and in mouse models suggest that IL-15 promotes myogenesis and may protect against the inflammation-mediated skeletal muscle atrophy which occurs in sarcopenia and cachexia. The effects of IL-15 on human skeletal muscle g... Read More about IL-15 promotes human myogenesis and mitigates the detrimental effects of TNFα on myotube development.

Effects of short-term energy restriction on liver lipid content and inflammatory status in severely obese adults: results of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) using two dietary approaches (2017)
Journal Article
Baldry, E., Aithal, G. P., Kaye, P., Idris, I., Bennett, A., Leeder, P. C., & MacDonald, I. A. (2017). Effects of short-term energy restriction on liver lipid content and inflammatory status in severely obese adults: results of a randomised controlled trial (RCT) using two dietary approaches. Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 19(8), https://doi.org/10.1111/dom.12918

Short-term very low energy diets (VLED) are used in clinical practice prior to bariatric surgery, however, regimens vary and outcomes for a short intervention are unclear. We examined the effect of two VLEDs; a food-based diet (FD) and meal replaceme...

Bioprinting Using Mechanically Robust Core–Shell Cell-Laden Hydrogel Strands (2017)
Journal Article
Mistry, P., Aied, A., Alexander, M. R., Shakesheff, K., Bennett, A., & Yang, J. (2017). Bioprinting Using Mechanically Robust Core–Shell Cell-Laden Hydrogel Strands. Macromolecular Bioscience, 17(6), Article 1600472. https://doi.org/10.1002/mabi.201600472

© 2017 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim The strand material in extrusion-based bioprinting determines the microenvironments of the embedded cells and the initial mechanical properties of the constructs. One unmet challenge is the combinat... Read More about Bioprinting Using Mechanically Robust Core–Shell Cell-Laden Hydrogel Strands.
