Journal ArticleDOI

Control of stem cell fate by physical interactions with the extracellular matrix.

TL;DR: Some of the physical processes by which cues from the ECM can influence stem cell fate are reviewed, with particular relevance to the use of stem cells in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA-guided gene activation by CRISPR-Cas9-based transcription factors

TL;DR: A Cas9-based transactivator that is targeted to DNA sequences by guide RNA molecules is created, demonstrating a simple and versatile approach for RNA-guided gene activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipose-derived adult stem cells: isolation, characterization, and differentiation potential

TL;DR: Adipose tissue is an abundant, accessible, and replenishable source of adult stem cells that can be isolated from liposuction waste tissue by collagenase digestion and differential centrifugation, and these ADAS cells have potential applications for the repair and regeneration of acute and chronically damaged tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

3D Printing of Highly Stretchable and Tough Hydrogels into Complex, Cellularized Structures

TL;DR: A 3D printable and highly stretchable tough hydrogel is developed by combining poly(ethylene glycol) and sodium alginate, which synergize to form a hydrogels tougher than natural cartilage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chondrogenic differentiation of adipose-derived adult stem cells in agarose, alginate, and gelatin scaffolds.

TL;DR: The findings of this study suggest that various biomaterials support the chondrogenic differentiation of hADAS cells, and that manipulating the composition of these tissue engineered constructs may have significant effects on their mechanical properties.
