Extracellular matrix-derived hydrogels for dental stem cell delivery (2016)
Journal Article
Viswanath, A., Vanacker, J., Germain, L., Leprince, J. G., Diogenes, A., Shakesheff, K. M., …des Rieux, A. (2016). Extracellular matrix-derived hydrogels for dental stem cell delivery. Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, 105(1), 319-328. https://doi.org/10.1002/jbm.a.35901

Decellularised mammalian extracellular matrices (ECM) have been widely accepted as an ideal substrate for repair and remodelling of numerous tissues in clinical and pre-clinical studies. Recent studies have demonstrated the ability of ECM scaffolds d... Read More about Extracellular matrix-derived hydrogels for dental stem cell delivery.

Highly efficient intracellular transduction in three-dimensional gradients for programming cell fate (2016)
Journal Article
Eltaher, H. M., Yang, J., Shakesheff, K. M., & Dixon, J. E. (2016). Highly efficient intracellular transduction in three-dimensional gradients for programming cell fate. Acta Biomaterialia, 41, 181-192. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.2016.06.004

Fundamental behaviour such as cell fate, growth and death are mediated through the control of key genetic transcriptional regulators. These regulators are activated or repressed by the integration of multiple signalling molecules in spatio-temporal g...

A detailed assessment of varying ejection rate on delivery efficiency of mesenchymal stem cells using narrow-bore needles (2016)
Journal Article
Rose, F., Shakesheff, K., White, L., & Amer, M. (2016). A detailed assessment of varying ejection rate on delivery efficiency of mesenchymal stem cells using narrow-bore needles. Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 5(3), 366-378. doi:10.5966/sctm.2015-0208

As the number of clinical trials exploring cell therapy rises, a thorough understanding of the limits of cell delivery is essential. We used an extensive toolset comprising various standard and multiplex assays for the assessment of cell delivery pos...

Characterisation of the surface structure of 3D printed scaffolds for cell infiltration and surgical suturing (2016)
Journal Article
Ruiz-Cantu, L., Gleadall, A., Faris, C., Segal, J., Shakesheff, K., & Yang, J. (2016). Characterisation of the surface structure of 3D printed scaffolds for cell infiltration and surgical suturing. Biofabrication, 8(1), Article 015016. https://doi.org/10.1088/1758-5090/8/1/015016

© 2016 IOP Publishing Ltd. 3D printing is of great interest for tissue engineering scaffolds due to the ability to form complex geometries and control internal structures, including porosity and pore size. The porous structure of scaffolds plays an i... Read More about Characterisation of the surface structure of 3D printed scaffolds for cell infiltration and surgical suturing.

Odontogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells on hydrogel scaffolds derived from decellularized bone extracellular matrix and collagen type I (2016)
Journal Article

Highly efficient delivery of functional cargoes by the synergistic effect of GAG binding motifs and cell-penetrating peptides (2016)
Journal Article
Dixon, J. E., Osman, G., Morris, G. E., Markides, H., Rotherham, M., Bayoussef, Z., …Shakesheff, K. M. (2016). Highly efficient delivery of functional cargoes by the synergistic effect of GAG binding motifs and cell-penetrating peptides. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 113(3), E291-E299. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1518634113

Protein transduction domains (PTDs) are powerful nongenetic tools that allow intracellular delivery of conjugated cargoes to modify cell behavior. Their use in biomedicine has been hampered by inefficient delivery to nuclear and cytoplasmic targets....
