Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene-based nanomaterials for drug and/or gene delivery, bioimaging, and tissue engineering
Hong Zhao,Ruihua Ding,Xin Zhao,Yiwei Li,Liangliang Qu,Hao Pei,Lara Yildirimer,Zhengwei Wu,Weixia Zhang +8 more
TL;DR: The biomedical applications of graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) are discussed, including drug and/or gene delivery, bioimaging, and tissue engineering, and their unique properties related to their biomedical applications are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell swelling, softening and invasion in a three-dimensional breast cancer model
Yu Long Han,Adrian F. Pegoraro,Adrian F. Pegoraro,Hui Li,Hui Li,Kaifu Li,Yuan Yuan,Guoqiang Xu,Zichen Gu,Jiawei Sun,Yukun Hao,Satish Kumar Gupta,Yiwei Li,Wenhui Tang,Hua Kang,Lianghong Teng,Jeffrey J. Fredberg,Ming Guo +17 more
TL;DR: Using a multicellular mammary cancer organoid model, a platform for probing the mechanics and migratory dynamics of a growing model breast cancer reveals that cells at the invasive edge are faster, softer and larger than those in the core.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designer Exosomes for Active Targeted Chemo-Photothermal Synergistic Tumor Therapy
Jie Wang,Yue Dong,Yiwei Li,Wei Li,Kai Cheng,Yuan Qian,Guoqiang Xu,Xiaoshuai Zhang,Liang Hu,Peng Chen,Wei Du,Xiaojun Feng,Yuan-Di Zhao,Zhihong Zhang,Bi-Feng Liu +14 more
TL;DR: The designer exosome combines the merits of both synthetic materials and the natural nanovesicles and gains multiple abilities for efficient tumor targeting, controlled release, and thermal therapy like synthetic nanocarriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
High stretchability, strength, and toughness of living cells enabled by hyperelastic vimentin intermediate filaments.
Jiliang Hu,Yiwei Li,Yukun Hao,Tianqi Zheng,Satish Kumar Gupta,German Alberto Parada,Huayin Wu,Shaoting Lin,Shida Wang,Xuanhe Zhao,Robert D. Goldman,Shengqiang Cai,Ming Guo +12 more
TL;DR: It is identified that cytoskeletal vimentin IFs (VIFs) provide cells with a hyperelastic rubber-like network that regulates the essential mechanical properties of mammalian cells including stretchability, strength, resilience, and toughness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Assembly of Heterogeneous 3D Cell Microenvironments in a Microgel Array.
Yiwei Li,Yiwei Li,Pu Chen,Yachao Wang,Shuangqian Yan,Xiaojun Feng,Wei Du,Stephan A. Koehler,Utkan Demirci,Bi-Feng Liu +9 more
TL;DR: Heterogeneous 3D cell microenvironment arrays are rapidly assembled by combining surface-wettability-guided assembly and microdroplet-array-based operations, which provides a cost-effective solution to meet the increasing demand of stem cell research, tissue engineering, and drug screening.
