Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche (2018)
Preprint / Working Paper
Prina, E., Sidney, L., Tromayer, M., Moore, J., Liska, R., Bertolin, M., Ferrari, S., Hopkinson, A., Dua, H., Yang, J., Wildman, R., & Rose, F. R. Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche

Stem cells within epithelial tissues reside in anatomical structures known as crypts that are known to contribute to the mechanical and chemical milieu important for function. To date, epithelial stem cell therapies have largely ignored the niche and... Read More about Geometry alone influences stem cell differentiation in a precision 3D printed stem cell niche.

Nonunion fractures and large bone defects are significant targets for osteochondral tissue engineering strategies. A major hurdle in the use of these therapies is the foreign body response of the host. Herein, we report the development of a bone tiss...

There are well-established approaches for osteogenic differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs), but few show direct comparison with primary osteoblasts or demonstrate differences in response to external factors. Here, we show comparative analysi... Read More about Comparison of osteogenic differentiation of embryonic stem cells and primary osteoblasts revealed by responses to IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFN-γ.
