Polyphenolic materials are a class of fascinating and versatile bioinspired materials for
biointerfacial engineering. In particular, due to the presence of active chemical groups, a …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes the scaffold of tissues and organs. It is a complex
network of extracellular proteins, proteoglycans and glycoproteins, which form …

Acoustophoresis is promising as a rapid, biocompatible, noncontact cell manipulation
method, where cells are arranged along the nodes or antinodes of the acoustic field …

Conspectus Biocompatible hydrogels are materials that hold great promise in medicine and
biology since the porous structure, the ability to entrap a large amount of water, and the …

Stem cell fate is closely intertwined with microenvironmental and endogenous cues within
the body. Recapitulating this dynamic environment ex vivo can be achieved through …

The specificity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) severely limits the effectiveness of
tumor treatment. In this study, we prepared a composite nanoparticle of manganese dioxide …

Stem cells and their microenvironment interact cooperatively to dictate their fates.
Biomaterials are dynamically remodeled by stem cells, and stem cells sense and translate …

Bone organoids, which simulate and construct special organs in vitro with complex
biological functions based on tissue engineering technology, provide dramatically realistic …

The cross-talk between stem cells and their microenvironment has been shown to have a
direct impact on stem cells' decisions about proliferation, growth, migration, and …

Growth factors and mechanical cues synergistically affect cellular functions, triggering a
variety of signaling pathways. The molecular levels of such cooperative interactions are not …
