Magnetic-based Theranostic Nanoparticles For Prostate Cancer Management
(Biomedical Engineering, 2013-03-20)
With an increasing rate of cancers, the need for effective cancer management has led to the development of theranostic systems for diagnosis and therapy. Conventional techniques for cancer management have limited success ...
Magnetic Drug Targeting: Development Of A Novel Drug Delivery System For Prostate Cancer Therapy
(Biomedical Engineering, 2008-09-17)
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been attracting a great amount of attention because of their numerous applications including contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic targeted drug carriers, and ...
Cell Specific Guidance Of Nerve And Vascular Regeneration Through Sustained Growth Factor Release
(Biomedical Engineering, 2014-09-17)
Regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces have been proposed as viable alternatives for the natural control of robotic prosthetic devices. However, sensory and motor axons at the neural interface are of mixed submodality ...
Pleiotrophin Enhance Nerve Regeneration Across Long Gap Peripheral Nerve Defects
Peripheral nerve injuries resulting in extensive loss in nerve continuity pose a challenge in reconstructive surgery. Autografts still remain the treatment of choice for nerve defects despite the need of donor nerve harvest ...
Methodology Of Citric Acid Based Functional Biomaterial Development And Application
(Biomedical Engineering, 2013-03-20)
Biomaterials play critical roles in modern strategies of biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, and theranostic therapy. Attempts to design ideal biomaterials for each specific application have led to an ...
AN ACTOMYOSIN DRIVEN, PRESSURE BASED ADHESION MODEL OF CONFINED GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME CELL MIGRATION
(2016-05-13)
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive and common form of glial tumors arising in the support cells of the brain. Cell migration plays a critical role in undermining the surgical resection of tumors. ...
Functional Studies of the Human Telomerase Holoenzyme
(2016-09-13)
Telomeres are the DNA structures that cap the ends of linear chromosomes. In humans, telomeres are composed of the hexameric repeats TTAGGG. The reverse transcriptase, telomerase maintains the telomeres by adding the TTAGGG ...
NANOSTURCTURED BIOMATERIALS FOR TISSUE REGENERATION AND REPAIR
(2016-09-16)
Nanostructured materials have been explored in biomedical field especially in
tissue engineering over a past decade. This type of material can be processed into
biomaterial scaffolds; revealed many advantages to be used ...
INTUITIVE HUMAN ROBOT INTERFACES FOR UPPER LIMB PROSTHETICS
(2016-08-19)
Modern robotic prosthetic devices for upper limb amputees promise to alleviate an important disability, but are underutilized due to the inability to properly control them. Specifically, the devices afford more degrees of ...
MAPPING OF PREFRONTAL HEMODYNAMIC RESPONSES TO NOXIOUS STIMULATION AND CHRONIC PAIN RELATED RESTING-STATE FUNCTIONAL NETWORKS ASSESSED BY fNIRS
(2018-06-01)
Neural representations of chronic pain are complex and are least understood. Numerous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have revealed structural and functional abnormalities in several cortical and sub-cortical ...
