Cell encapsulation and oxygenation in nanoporous microcontainers.
With strides in stem cell biology, cell engineering and molecular therapy, the transplantation of cells to produce therapeutic molecules endogenously is an attractive and achievable alternative to the use of exogenous drugs. The encapsulation of such cell transplants in semi-permeable, nanoporous constructs is often required to protect them from immune attack and to prevent their proliferation ...
متن کاملRealistic analytical polyhedral MRI phantoms.
PURPOSE Analytical phantoms have closed form Fourier transform expressions and are used to simulate MRI acquisitions. Existing three-dimensional (3D) analytical phantoms are unable to accurately model shapes of biomedical interest. The goal of this study was to demonstrate that polyhedral analytical phantoms have closed form Fourier transform expressions and can accurately represent 3D biomedic...
متن کاملMinimal Projections and Absolute Projection Constants for Regular Polyhedral Spaces
Let V« [vx,...,vn] be the «-dimensional space of coordinate functions on a set of points ¡cR" where v is the set of vertices of a regular convex polyhedron. In this paper the absolute projection constant of any «-dimensional Banach space E isometrically isomorphic to V c C(v) is computed, examples of which are the well-known cases E = ITM, lln.
متن کاملMicroscale Strategies for Generating Cell-Encapsulating Hydrogels.
Hydrogels in which cells are encapsulated are of great potential interest for tissue engineering applications. These gels provide a structure inside which cells can spread and proliferate. Such structures benefit from controlled microarchitectures that can affect the behavior of the enclosed cells. Microfabrication-based techniques are emerging as powerful approaches to generate such cell-encap...
متن کاملSandwich-shaped silver(I) metallomacrocycles encapsulating a XF6(2-) (X = Si, Ge and Sn) anion.
A series of sandwich-shaped complexes based on two square tetranuclear Ag(I) metallomacrocycles, [[Ag4(pprd)4]2(XF6)]-(BF4)6.8MeNO2 (pprd = 4-(2-pyridyl)pyrimidine; X = Si, Ge and Sn), in which a XF6(2-) anion is encapsulated, were prepared and their structures were characterized both in the solid state and solution.
