Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing the viscoelastic properties of thin hydrogel-based constructs for tissue engineering applications.
TL;DR: This study demonstrates a novel and convenient technique to measure mechanical properties of hydrogel in a non-destructive, online and real-time fashion and can become a valuable tool for soft tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gelatin-Based Materials in Ocular Tissue Engineering.
James B. Rose,Settimio Pacelli,Alicia J. El Haj,Harminder S Dua,Andrew Hopkinson,Lisa J. White,Felicity R. A. J. Rose +6 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on methods to crosslink gelatin-based materials and how the resulting materials have been applied in ocular tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular responses to mechanical loading in vitro.
Alicia J. El Haj,Sarah L. Minter,Simon C.F. Rawlinson,Rosemary F. L. Suswillo,Lance E. Lanyon +4 more
TL;DR: In these in vitro experiments, addition of indomethacin inhibited both the loading‐related G6PD and the RNA responses, which demonstrated similar to those that follow “osteogenic” loading in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective activation of mechanosensitive ion channels using magnetic particles
TL;DR: It is concluded that changes in whole-cell current are the result of direct force application to the extracellular loop region of TREK-1 and thus these results implicate this region of the channel structure in mechano-gating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of acetaldehyde released by lung cancer cells in vitro using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) to analyze the headspace above cell/medium cultures and found that the concentration of acetaldehyde was proportional to the number of cancer cells in the medium.
