Dual growth factor delivery from bilayered, biodegradable hydrogel composites for spatially-guided osteochondral tissue repair
Lu, Steven; Lam, Johnny; Trachtenberg, Jordan E.; Lee, Esther J.; Seyednejad, Hajar; van den Beucken, Jeroen J.J.P.; Tabata, Yasuhiko; Wong, Mark E.; Jansen, John A.; Mikos, Antonios G.; Kasper, F. Kurtis (2014)The present work investigated the use of biodegradable hydrogel composite scaffolds, based on the macromer oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) (OPF), to deliver growth factors for the repair of osteochondral tissue in a ... -
Evaluation of cell-laden polyelectrolyte hydrogels incorporating poly(l-Lysine) for applications in cartilage tissue engineering
Lam, Johnny; Clark, Elisa C.; Fong, Eliza L.S.; Lee, Esther J.; Lu, Steven; Tabata, Yasuhiko; Mikos, Antonios G. (2016)To address the lack of reliable long-term solutions for cartilage injuries, strategies in tissue engineering are beginning to leverage developmental processes to spur tissue regeneration. This study focuses on the use of ... -
A factorial analysis of the combined effects of hydrogel fabrication parameters on the in vitro swelling and degradation of oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) hydrogels
Lam, Johnny; Kim, Kyobum; Lu, Steven; Tabata, Yasuhiko; Scott, David W.; Mikos, Antonios G.; Kasper, F. Kurtis (2014)In this study, a full factorial approach was used to investigate the effects of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) molecular weight (MW; 10,000 vs. 35,000 nominal MW), crosslinker-to-macromer carbon–carbon double bond ratio (DBR; ... -
Generation of osteochondral tissue constructs with chondrogenically and osteogenically predifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells encapsulated in bilayered hydrogels
Lam, Johnny; Lu, Steven; Meretoja, Ville V.; Tabata, Yasuhiko; Mikos, Antonios G.; Kasper, F. Kurtis (2014)This study investigated the ability of chondrogenic and osteogenic predifferentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to play a role in the development of osteochondral tissue constructs using injectable bilayered ... -
