Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering highly effective antimicrobial selenium nanoparticles through control of particle size.

TL;DR: It is identified that using Se NPs with a size of 81 nm and concentration of 10 μg mL-1 shows promise as a safe and efficient way to kill S. aureus without damaging mammalian cells, illustrating that Se NP size is a facile yet critical and previously underappreciated parameter that can be tailored for maximal antimicrobial efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combining cell sheet technology and electrospun scaffolding for engineered tubular, aligned, and contractile blood vessels.

TL;DR: This method improves cell sheet handling, results in rapid circumferential alignment of smooth muscle cells which immediately express contractile genes, and introduction of an analogue to small diameter blood vessel IEL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrin Clustering Matters: A Review of Biomaterials Functionalized with Multivalent Integrin-Binding Ligands to Improve Cell Adhesion, Migration, Differentiation, Angiogenesis, and Biomedical Device Integration.

TL;DR: The techniques that enable the fabrication of nanopatterned materials with nanoscale clusters of ligands that promote both integrin occupancy and clustering of the receptors are introduced and the improved biological effects that have been achieved are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective endothelial cell attachment to peptide-modified terpolymers

TL;DR: This is the first report demonstrating specificity in binding to peptide-modified biomaterials of mature EC, i.e., HUVEC, and EC of progenitor origin such as HBOEC.
