Journal ArticleDOI

Biophysical regulation of epigenetic state and cell reprogramming

TL;DR: It is shown that biophysical cues, in the form of parallel microgrooves on the surface of cell-adhesive substrates, can replace the effects of small-molecule epigenetic modifiers and significantly improve reprogramming efficiency and promote a mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition in adult fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipocytes as Anticancer Drug Delivery Depot

TL;DR: The lipid metabolism is exploited to engineer adipocytes that serve as a depot to deliver cancer therapeutics at the tumor site, promoting antitumor efficacy and downregulation of PD-L1 expression is observed in tumor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell engineering: Biophysical regulation of the nucleus.

TL;DR: This review will highlight the recent progress in nuclear biomechanics and mechanobiology in the context of cell engineering, tissue remodeling and disease development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering Biomaterials with Micro/Nanotechnologies for Cell Reprogramming

TL;DR: An overview of the state-of-the-art technologies for cell reprograming is presented and the recent breakthroughs in engineering biomaterials with micro/nanotechnologies to improve reprogramming efficiency and quality are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biophysical regulation of cell reprogramming.

TL;DR: The recent advances in the use of biomaterials for iPS cell reprograming and direct reprogramming are reviewed, with a focus on the biophysical aspect, and the future challenges and directions of the field are highlighted.
