Rapidly Transducing and Spatially Localized Magnetofection Using Peptide-Mediated Non-Viral Gene Delivery Based on Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (2020)
Journal Article
Blokpoel Ferreras, L. A., Chan, S. Y., Vazquez Reina, S., & Dixon, J. E. (2021). Rapidly Transducing and Spatially Localized Magnetofection Using Peptide-Mediated Non-Viral Gene Delivery Based on Iron Oxide Nanoparticles. ACS Applied Nano Materials, 4(1), 167-181. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsanm.0c02465

Non-viral delivery systems are generally of low efficiency, which limits their use in gene therapy and editing applications. We previously developed a technology termed glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-binding enhanced transduction (GET) to efficiently delive...

Efficient Delivery of Transducing Polymer Nanoparticles for Gene-mediated Induction of Osteogenesis for Bone Regeneration (2020)
Journal Article
Jalal, A. R., & Dixon, J. E. (2020). Efficient Delivery of Transducing Polymer Nanoparticles for Gene-mediated Induction of Osteogenesis for Bone Regeneration. Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 8, Article 849. https://doi.org/10.3389/fbioe.2020.00849

Developing non-viral gene therapy vectors that both protect and functionally deliver nucleic acid cargoes will be vital if gene augmentation and editing strategies are to be effectively combined with advanced regenerative medicine approaches. Current... Read More about Efficient Delivery of Transducing Polymer Nanoparticles for Gene-mediated Induction of Osteogenesis for Bone Regeneration.

Human-scale tissues with patterned vascular networks by additive manufacturing of sacrificial sugar-protein composites (2020)
Journal Article
Eltaher, H. M., Abukunna, F. E., Ruiz-Cantu, L., Stone, Z., Yang, J., & Dixon, J. E. (2020). Human-scale tissues with patterned vascular networks by additive manufacturing of sacrificial sugar-protein composites. Acta Biomaterialia, 113, 339-349. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2020.06.012

© 2020 Combating necrosis, by supplying nutrients and removing waste, presents the major challenge for engineering large three-dimensional (3D) tissues. Previous elegant work used 3D printing with carbohydrate glass as a cytocompatible sacrificial te...
