Journal ArticleDOI
Multifunctional magnetic-responsive hydrogels to engineer tendon-to-bone interface.
Elsa D. Silva,Pedro S. Babo,Raquel Costa-Almeida,Rui M. A. Domingues,Bárbara B. Mendes,Elvira Paz,Paulo P. Freitas,Márcia T. Rodrigues,Pedro L. Granja,Manuela E. Gomes +9 more
TL;DR: The developed magnetic responsive hydrogel represents a potential cell carrier system for interfacial tissue engineering with EMF-controlled properties and is envisioning their application in tendon-to-bone interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanodelivery of nucleic acids
Bárbara B. Mendes,João Miguel de Oliveira Conniot,Aviram Avital,Dongbao Yao,Xingya Jiang,Xiang Zhou,Noga Sharf-Pauker,Yuling Xiao,Omer Adir,Haojun Liang,Jinjun Shi,Avi Schroeder,João Conde +12 more
TL;DR: Conde et al. as discussed by the authors discussed the design considerations of nucleic acid delivery nanoparticles, their extraordinary properties and the structure-function relationships of these nanomaterials with biological systems and diseased cells and tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human platelet lysate-based nanocomposite bioink for bioprinting hierarchical fibrillar structures
Bárbara B. Mendes,Manuel Gómez-Florit,Alex G. Hamilton,Michael S. Detamore,Rui M. A. Domingues,Rui L. Reis,Manuela E. Gomes +6 more
TL;DR: This innovative bioprinting platform with unpaired biofunctionality allows the fabrication of complex freeform cell-laden constructs that can ultimately be applied in the development of xeno-free 3D tissue models for in vitro research or to develop tissue and organ surrogates for clinical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blood derivatives awaken in regenerative medicine strategies to modulate wound healing
Bárbara B. Mendes,Manuel Gómez-Florit,Pedro S. Babo,Rui M. A. Domingues,Rui L. Reis,Manuela E. Gomes +5 more
TL;DR: Recent trends on the use of biomaterials to protect, sequester and deliver these pools of biomolecule in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches are highlighted and particular emphasis is given to strategies that enable to control their spatiotemporal delivery and improve the selectivity of presentation profiles of the biomolecules derived from blood derivatives rich in platelets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Injectable and Magnetic Responsive Hydrogels with Bioinspired Ordered Structures.
Sandra Araújo-Custódio,Manuel Gómez-Florit,Ana Rita Tomás,Bárbara B. Mendes,Pedro S. Babo,Suzanne M. Mithieux,Anthony S. Weiss,Rui M. A. Domingues,Rui L. Reis,Manuela E. Gomes +9 more
TL;DR: The microstructural patterns stemming from nanoparticle alignment induced the directional growth of seeded and encapsulated cells in the hydrogels, suggesting that this injectable system might find application in both cellular and acellular strategies targeting the regeneration of anisotropic tissues.
