Extracellular matrix (ECM) derived components are emerging sources for the engineering of
biomaterials that are capable of inducing desirable cell-specific responses. This review …

As one of the most common clinical disorders, low back pain (LBP) influences patient quality
of life and causes substantial social and economic burdens. Many factors can result in LBP …

Urinary bladder is a dynamic organ performing complex physiological activities. Together
with ureters and urethra, it forms the lower urinary tract that facilitates urine collection, low …

Advances in biological engineering are likely to have substantial impacts on global society.
To explore these potential impacts we ran a horizon scanning exercise to capture a range of …

Several congenital and acquired conditions may result in severe narrowing of the urethra in
men, which represent an ongoing surgical challenge and a significant burden on both health …

The compositional formulations and the optimization of process parameters to fabricate
hydrogel scaffolds with urological tissue-mimicking biophysical properties are not yet …

Tissue engineering is an emerging field of research that initially aimed to produce 3D
tissues to bypass the lack of adequate tissues for the repair or replacement of deficient …

Objective To assess the possibility of ureter tissue engineering using vessel extracellular
matrix (VECM) and differentiated urine-derived stem cells (USCs) in a rabbit model. Methods …

This study addresses a crucial gap in the literature by characterising the relationship
between urethral tissue mechanics, composition and gross structure. We then utilise these …

The bladder patch constructed with the bladder acellular matrix (BAM) and adipose-derived
stem cells (ASCs) was incubated with the omentum for bladder reconstruction in a rat model …
