Engineered acellular collagen scaffold for endogenous cell guidance, a novel approach in urethral regeneration

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar, Kalitha Pinnagoda, Ganesh Vythilingam

The treatment of congenital malformations or injuries of the urethra using existing autologous tissues can be associated with post-operative complications. Using rat-tail collagen, we have engineered an acellular high-density collagen tube. These tubes wer ...

Implant-based three-dimensional superimposition of the growing mandible in a rabbit model

The reliable assessment of craniofacial morphological changes during growth requires invariant regions for image registration. As these regions have not yet been identified in three dimensions, intra-osseous implants are required as fiducial markers for th ...

Optical properties of rabbit brain in the red and near-infrared: changes observed under in vivo, postmortem, frozen, and formalin-fixated conditions

Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Blaise Lovisa, Andreas Pitzschke

The outcome of light-based therapeutic approaches depends on light propagation in biological tissues, which is governed by their optical properties. The objective of this study was to quantify optical properties of brain tissue in vivo and postmortem and a ...

3D Assessment of Mandibular Growth Based on Image Registration: A Feasibility Study in a Rabbit Model

Background. Our knowledge of mandibular growth mostly derives from cephalometric radiography, which has inherent limitations due to the two-dimensional (2D) nature of measurement. Objective. To assess 3D morphological changes occurring during growth in a r ...

Insights into the antiatherogenic molecular mechanisms of andrographolide against Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced atherosclerosis in rabbits

Amer Ashrafi

Atherosclerosis is the commonest and most important vascular disease. Andrographolide (AND) is the main bioactive component of the medicinal plant Andrographis paniculata and is used in traditional medicine. This study was aimed to evaluate the antiatherog ...

Memristive-Biosensors: A New Detection Method by Using Nanofabricated Memristors

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Davide Sacchetto, Yusuf Leblebici, Camilla Baj-Rossi

This paper proposes a new detection methodology based on memristive-effect registered on silicon nanowire. The nano-wires are fabricated by a lithographic technique that allows precise and selective etching at the nanoscale. The wires are obtained in three ...

In-vivo performance of high-density collagen gel tubes for urethral regeneration in a rabbit model

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Lionel Ambroise Micol

Congenital malformations or injuries of the urethra can be treated using existing autologous tissue, but these procedures are sometimes associated with severe complications. Therefore, tissue engineering may be advantageous for generating urethral grafts. ...

A structural model of the venous wall considering elastin anisotropy

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

The three-dimensional biomechanical behavior of the vascular wall is best described by means of strain energy functions. Significant effort has been devoted lately in the development of structure-based models of the vascular wall, which account for the ind ...

Conversion of cyclosporine A prodrugs in human tears vs rabbits tears

Arnaud Hamel

The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate and mechanism of conversion of two water-soluble prodrugs of cyclosporine A (CsA) intended for topical delivery to the eye. The new molecules were designed according to the double prodrug concept: a solubilizi ...
