Synthetic polymers are attracting great attention in the last decades for their use in the
biomedical field as nanovectors for controlled drug delivery, hydrogels and scaffolds …

Thermoresponsive surfaces, prepared by grafting of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PIPAAm)
or its copolymers, have been investigated for biomedical applications. Thermoresponsive …

In biointegrated electronics, the facile control of mechanical properties such as softness and
stretchability in electronic devices is necessary to minimize the perturbation of motions …

Engineered human cardiac tissues facilitate progress in regenerative medicine, disease
modelling and drug development. In this Perspective, we reflect on the most notable …

A major challenge in cardiac tissue engineering is the host's immune response to artificial
materials. To overcome this problem, we established a scaffold-free system for assembling …

Cell transplantation is a promising approach for promoting tissue regeneration in the
treatment of damaged tissues or organs. Although cells have conventionally been delivered …

We have developed our original tissue engineering technology “cell sheet engineering”
utilizing temperature-responsive culture dishes. The cells are confluently grown on a …

Antibody drugs play an important role in biopharmaceuticals, because of the specificity for
target biomolecules and reduction of side effects. Thus, separation and analysis techniques …

The purpose of this study was to fabricate pulsatile tubular cardiac tissue using cell sheet
based-tissue engineering. First, we fabricated human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSc) …

Fabrication of cardiac tissue from human induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived
cardiomyocytes (hiPS‐CMs) has received great interest, but a major challenge facing …
