Journal ArticleDOI
A Long-Living Bioengineered Neural Tissue Platform to Study Neurodegeneration.
Nicolas Rouleau,William L. Cantley,Volha Liaudanskaya,Alexander N. Berk,Chuang Du,William Rusk,Emily Peirent,Cole Koester,Thomas J.F. Nieland,David L. Kaplan +9 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that the long-term stability of the platform is suited to study chronic brain disease including neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
A 3D Tissue Model of Traumatic Brain Injury with Excitotoxicity That Is Inhibited by Chronic Exposure to Gabapentinoids.
Nicolas Rouleau,Mattia Bonzanni,Joshua D. Erndt-Marino,Katja Sievert,Camila G Ramirez,William Rusk,Michael Levin,Michael Levin,David L. Kaplan +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the present model of traumatic brain injury demonstrates validity and can serve as a customizable experimental platform to assess the individual contribution of cell types on TBI progression, as well as to screen anti-excitotoxic and pro-regenerative compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning and synaptic plasticity in 3D bioengineered neural tissues
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate response patterns characteristic of habituation, a form of non-associative learning, in 3D bioengineered neural tissues exposed to repetitive injections of current to elicit evoked-potentials (EPs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix Deformation with Ectopic Cells Induced by Rotational Motion in Bioengineered Neural Tissues
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that ECM deformation may represent a more significant role in brain injury progression than previously assumed and that the present model system contributes to its understanding as a phenomenon.
