The impact of detergents on the tissue decellularization process: a ToF-SIMS study (2016)
Journal Article

Biologic scaffolds are derived from mammalian tissues, which must be decellularized to remove cellular antigens that would otherwise incite an adverse immune response. Although widely used clinically, the optimum balance between cell removal and the... Read More about The impact of detergents on the tissue decellularization process: a ToF-SIMS study.

Extracellular matrix hydrogels from decellularized tissues: structure and function (2016)
Journal Article

Extracellular matrix (ECM) bioscaffolds prepared from decellularized tissues have been used to facilitate constructive and functional tissue remodeling in a variety of clinical applications. The discovery that these ECM materials could be solubilized... Read More about Extracellular matrix hydrogels from decellularized tissues: structure and function.

Extracellular matrix-derived hydrogels for dental stem cell delivery (2016)
Journal Article

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.

Restoring Mucosal Barrier Function and Modifying Macrophage Phenotype with an Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel: Potential Therapy for Ulcerative Colitis (2016)
Journal Article

Background and Aims: Despite advances in therapeutic options, more than half of all patients with ulcerative colitis [UC] do not achieve long-term remission, many require colectomy, and the disease still has a marked negative impact on quality of lif...

Microparticles for Sustained Growth Factor Delivery in the Regeneration of Critically-Sized Segmental Tibial Bone Defects (2016)
Journal Article

A detailed assessment of varying ejection rate on delivery efficiency of mesenchymal stem cells using narrow-bore needles (2016)
Journal Article

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...

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

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of odontogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) on hydrogel scaffolds derived from bone extracellular matrix (bECM) in comparison to those seeded on collagen I (Col-I), on...
