Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the biocompatibility of a chitosan scaffold in mice.

TL;DR: It is suggested that chitosan may be suitable for the development of implantable materials after a preliminary study showed a high degree of biocompatibility in this animal model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved tissue-engineered bone regeneration by endothelial cell mediated vascularization.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the integration of complex cell populations with composite scaffold materials provided an effective technique to improve osteogenesis in engineered bone grafts, suggesting that hybrid grafts have great potential for clinical use to treat large bone defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

A modular approach for the generation, storage, mixing, and detection of droplet libraries for high throughput screening

TL;DR: Due to its flexibility, the widespread availability of components, and some favorable material properties compared to PDMS, this approach can be a useful part of a researcher's toolkit for prototyping droplet-based assays.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blast induces oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal loss and subsequent short-term memory impairment in rats.

TL;DR: Pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory environments in the brain could play a potential role in BOP-induced neuronal loss and behavioral deficits and may provide a foundation for defining a molecular and cellular basis of the pathophysiology of blast-induced neurotrauma (BINT).
Journal ArticleDOI

Intracranial pressure increases during exposure to a shock wave

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that proper sealing techniques lead to a significant increase in ICP values, compared to the outside overpressure generated by the blast, which suggests that a global flexure of the skull by the transient shockwave is an important mechanism of pressure transmission inside the brain.
