Nanopatterned scaffolds for active myocardial implants (NanoCARD)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
Cell therapy and tissue engineering are emerging as novel therapeutic paradigms for myocardial repair. The rationale behind the cell replacement approach is based on the assumption that an increase in the number of functional cardiomyocytes within the diseased area may improve the mechanical properties of this compromised region. A common strategy attempts to initially combine, ex-vivo, cells with ...

Nanoscopically-guided induction and expansion of regulatory hematopoietic cells to treat autoimmune and inflammatory processes (NanoII)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
We propose a multidisciplinary program, focusing on the development of novel approaches for directing the differentiation, proliferation and tissue-tropism of specific hematopoietic lineages, using micro- and nano-fabricated cell chips. We will use advanced nanofabricated surfaces functionalized with specific biomolecules, and microfluidics cell chips to specify and expend regulatory immune cells ...

Magnetic Scaffolds for in vivo Tissue Engineering (MAGISTER)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2008, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
The main driving idea of the project is the creation of conceptually new type of scaffolds able to be manipulated in situ by means of magnetic forces. This approach is expected to generate scaffolds with such characteristics as multiple use and possibly multipurpose delivery in order to repair large bone defects and ostheocondral lesions in the articular surface of the skeletal system. The major ...

Effect of nano-patterned substrate properties on cell attachment and endocytosis (Surface Endocytosis)
Date du début: 1 août 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2012,
Cell-substrate interactions have a pronounced effect on cell attachment, growth and proliferation in healthy tissues and disease. The complexity of the in vivo setting has fueled in vitro studies on different aspects of cell behavior in response to different material properties. The proposed research project aims at establishing links between substrate properties and the fundamental process of end ...
