Modulating Gradients in Regulatory Signals within Mesenchymal Stem Cell Seeded Hydrogels: A Novel Strategy to Engineer Zonal Articular Cartilage
Engineering organs and tissues with the spatial composition and organisation of their native equivalents remains a major challenge. One approach to engineer such spatial complexity is to recapitulate the gradients in regulatory signals that during development and maturation are believed to drive spatial changes in stem cell differentiation. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation is known t...
متن کاملFrom Engineer-To-Order to Mass Customization
Purpose Most mass customization literature focuses on the move from mass production to mass customization. However, in some literature Engineer-To-Order (ETO) companies are also claimed to have become mass customizers, although it can be questioned if these companies conform to popular definitions of mass customizers. This raises the question: Under which conditions is it reasonable to label ET...
متن کاملDirected evolution: an approach to engineer enzymes.
Directed evolution is being used increasingly in industrial and academic laboratories to modify and improve commercially important enzymes. Laboratory evolution is thought to make its biggest contribution in explorations of non-natural functions, by allowing us to distinguish the properties nurtured by evolution. In this review we report the significant advances achieved with respect to the met...
متن کاملSynthetic biology approaches to engineer T cells.
There is rapidly growing interest in learning how to engineer immune cells, such as T lymphocytes, because of the potential of these engineered cells to be used for therapeutic applications such as the recognition and killing of cancer cells. At the same time, our knowhow and capability to logically engineer cellular behavior is growing rapidly with the development of synthetic biology. Here we...
متن کاملA methodology to Engineer Graded BDI Agents
In this work we present a methodological framework to engineer graded BDI agent-based systems. The graded BDI agent model allows to specify an agent?s architecture able to deal with the environment uncertainty and with graded mental attitudes. We work up previous approaches on software engineering process, adapting and extending them, in order to develop agents with a more complex internal arch...
