Novel proangiogenic cocktails of growth factors and cytokines to revascularize ischemic tissue

Overview Revascularization of ischemic tissue can be achieved using growth factors to recapitulate native developmental and wound healing cascades, and stimulate angiogenesis and arteriogenesis. These pro-vasculogenic growth factor cocktails can also increase the efficacy and translatability of regenerative therapeutics for clinical uses. We have developed...

Human Atrial Cardiac Microtissues for Chamber-Specific Arrhythmogenic Toxicity Responses

Overview To guide the development of atrial-specific drugs and evaluate their safety, there is a need for in vitro models to accurately assess the cardiotoxic effects of novel therapeutics in both atrial and ventricular cell populations, with high throughput. We have developed a robust in vitro 3D atrial tissue platform made from human-induced pluripotent...

Bespoke Collagen Microfiber Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering

Overview In tissue engineering, cells are generally grown on a scaffold that emulates the cellular environment in the body. Together, the scaffold and cells can be implanted in a patient or serve as a testing platform, for example, to evaluate pharmaceuticals and toxicants. We have developed an accessible, low-cost, and automated method of preparing...
