Degradable biomaterials based on magnesium corrosion
Frank Witte,Frank Witte,Norbert Hort,Carla Vogt,Smadar Cohen,Karl Ulrich Kainer,Regine Willumeit,Frank Feyerabend +7 more
TL;DR: Magnesium and its alloys have been investigated recently by many authors as a suitable biodegradable biomaterial as mentioned in this paper, and the latest achievements and comment on the selection and use, test methods and the approaches to develop and produce magnesium alloys that are intended to perform clinically with an appropriate host response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled Delivery Systems for Proteins Based on Poly(Lactic/Glycolic Acid) Microspheres
TL;DR: Stability studies showed that the encapsulation of an enzyme inside PLGA microspheres can protect them from activity loss, and in vitro release studies revealed that different release profiles and release rates can be achieved by simply modifying factors in the preparation procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rigid, Self‐Assembled Hydrogel Composed of a Modified Aromatic Dipeptide

Bioengineered Cardiac Grafts A New Approach to Repair the Infarcted Myocardium
Jonathan Leor,Sharon Aboulafia-Etzion,Ayelet Dar,Lilia Shapiro,Israel M. Barbash,Alexander Battler,Yosef Granot,Smadar Cohen +7 more
TL;DR: After implantation into the infarcted myocardium, the biografts stimulated intense neovascularization and attenuated LV dilatation and failure in experimental rats compared with controls, suggesting alginate scaffolds provide a conducive environment to facilitate the 3D culturing of cardiac cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel alginate sponges for cell culture and transplantation
Lilia Shapiro,Smadar Cohen +1 more
TL;DR: It appears that alginate sponges may provide an excellent support for cell transplantation and be suitable for cell culture and neovascularization.
