Endothelialized microfluidics for studying microvascular interactions in hematologic diseases.
Advances in microfabrication techniques have enabled the production of inexpensive and reproducible microfluidic systems for conducting biological and biochemical experiments at the micro- and nanoscales (1,2). In addition, microfluidics have also been specifically used to quantitatively analyze hematologic and microvascular processes, because of their ability to easily control the dynamic...
متن کاملMicroscale functional cytomics for studying hematologic cancers.
An important problem in translational cancer research is our limited ability to functionally characterize behaviors of primary patient cancer cells and associated stromal cell types, and relate mechanistic understanding to therapy selection. Functional analyses of primary samples face at least 3 major challenges: limited availability of primary samples for testing, paucity of functional informa...
متن کاملHematologic Diseases
Hematopoiesis is the formation of cellular components of the blood from a small population of pluripotential stem cells, which are formed in embryonic life and persist thereafter through self-regeneration. When stimulated by hematopoietic growth factors such as cytokines, these precursor cells give rise to progenitor cells committed to development along specific pathways. These progenitor cells...
متن کاملHuman Herpesviruses in Hematologic Diseases
The members of the Herpesvirales containing more than 130 different herpesviruses have already been isolated from all animal species representing the higher steps of evolution. According to our knowledge, eight herpesviruses are classified as human herpesviruses: Herpes simplex virus 1 (Human herpesvirus 1, HHV-1), Herpes simplex virus 2 (Human herpesvirus 2, HHV-2), Varicella-zoster virus (Hum...
متن کاملMicrofluidics co-culture systems for studying tooth innervation
Innervation plays a key role in the development and homeostasis of organs and tissues of the orofacial complex. Among these structures, teeth are peculiar organs as they are not innervated until later stages of development. Furthermore, the implication of neurons in tooth initiation, morphogenesis and differentiation is still controversial. Co-cultures constitute a valuable method to investigat...
