Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of electrospinning parameters on the nanofiber diameter and length
TL;DR: Experimental results lead to the hypothesis that even longer continuous nanofibers over 50 cm could be collected if the size of the parallel plates were increased, and extending the maximum fiber length that can be collected across parallel plates could expand the applications of electrospinning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periostin regulates collagen fibrillogenesis and the biomechanical properties of connective tissues

Goodwin,Jeffrey Davis,Stanley Hoffman,Xuejun Wen,Yukiko Sugi,Christine B. Kern,Corey H. Mjaatvedt,Debi Turner,Toru Oka,Simon J. Conway,Jeffery D. Molkentin,Gabor Forgacs,Roger R. Markwald +21 more
TL;DR: Functional biomechanical properties of periostin null skin specimens and atrioventricular valve explant experiments provided direct evidence of the role that periastin plays in regulating the viscoelastic properties of connective tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication of three-dimensional polycaprolactone/hydroxyapatite tissue scaffolds and osteoblast-scaffold interactions in vitro.
TL;DR: This study demonstrated the viability of the PED process to the fabricate PCL and PCL-HA composite scaffolds having necessary mechanical property, structural integrity, controlled pore size and pore interconnectivity desired for bone tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
GDNF-enhanced axonal regeneration and myelination following spinal cord injury is mediated by primary effects on neurons.
Liqun Zhang,Zhengwen Ma,George M. Smith,Xuejun Wen,Yelena Pressman,Patrick M. Wood,Xiao Ming Xu,Xiao Ming Xu +7 more
TL;DR: It is reported that GDNF enhanced both the number and caliber of regenerated axons in vivo and increased neurite outgrowth of dorsal root ganglion neurons (DRGN) in vitro, suggesting thatGDNF has a direct effect on neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of filament diameter and extracellular matrix molecule precoating on neurite outgrowth and Schwann cell behavior on multifilament entubulation bridging device in vitro
Xuejun Wen,Patrick A. Tresco +1 more
TL;DR: The influence of filament diameter and various extracellular matrix coatings on nerve regeneration was evaluated using a dorsal root ganglion (DRG) explant model and suggested the feasibility of using a multifilament entubulation bridging device for supporting directional axonal regeneration.
