Biomimetic Nanofibrous Mesh for Long-Term Preservation of Intestinal Epithelial Cells

Biomimetic electrospun nanofibrous structures for tissue engineering.

Biomimetic nanofibrous scaffolds mimicking important features of the native extracellular matrix provide a promising strategy to restore functions or achieve favorable responses for tissue regeneration. This review provides a brief overview of current state-of-the-art research designing and using biomimetic electrospun nanofibers as scaffolds for tissue engineering. It begins with a brief intro...

design of polycaprolactone nanofibrous scaffold as suitable substrate for limbal stem cells for corneal epithelial regeneration

purpose: to develop a nanofibrous polycaprolacton (pcl) substrate for limbal stem cell (lsc) expansion that can serve as a potential alternative substrate to replace human amniotic membrane. methods: the human limbal stem cells (lscs) were used to evaluate the biocompatibility of substrates (nanofibrous scaffold, and human amniotic membrane) regarding cellular phenotypic profile, viability, pro...

Long Term Endocrine Regulation of Nucleoside Transporters in Rat Intestinal Epithelial Cells

We studied the regulation of nucleoside transporters in intestinal epithelial cells upon exposure to either differentiating or proliferative agents. Rat intestinal epithelial cells (line IEC-6) were incubated in the presence of differentiating (glucocorticoids) or proliferative (EGF and TGF-alpha) agents. Nucleoside uptake rates and nucleoside transporter protein and mRNA levels were assessed. ...

CERN Services for Long Term Data Preservation

In this paper we describe the services that are offered by CERN [3] for Long Term preservation of High Energy Physics (HEP) data, with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as a key use case. Data preservation is a strategic goal for European High Energy Physics (HEP) [9], as well as for the HEP community worldwide and we position our work in this global content. Specifically, we target the preservat...
