Journal ArticleDOI
The control of human mesenchymal cell differentiation using nanoscale symmetry and disorder

TL;DR: The use of nanoscale disorder is demonstrated to stimulate human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to produce bone mineral in vitro, in the absence of osteogenic supplements, which has implications for cell therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topographical control of cells
TL;DR: A review of the literature on the reaction of cells to their surrounding topography and a summary of the types of prosthesis where advantage has been taken of the ability to fabricate topography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topographical control of cell behaviour: II. Multiple grooved substrata.
TL;DR: Electronics miniaturization techniques have been used to fabricate substrata to study contact guidance of cells and found that repeat spacing had a small effect but that groove depth proved to be much more important in determining cell alignment, which increased with depth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell guidance by ultrafine topography in vitro
TL;DR: It is clear that topography on this scale can control cell behaviour, but guidance of this type is strongly dependent on cell type and cell-cell interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nantotechniques and approaches in biotechnology
TL;DR: This article concentrates mainly on surface-directed nanobiotechnologies because they are nearer to commercial realisation, such as use in tissue engineering, control of biofouling and cell culture, than those directed at producing nanoparticles.
