It is well recognised that natural extracellular matrices are viscoelastic and exhibit stress relaxation...

Tissue contraction is a critically important process in homeostasis, developmental morphogenesis and pathological processes such as wound closure, tumour progression, and fibrotic disease...

Biodegradable hydrogels are three dimensional 3D crosslinked polymeric networks widely used as support matrixes for cell culture in tissue engineering...

Purpose The objective of this project was to deliver a unique malleable DNA-based hydrogel scaffold that can easily be injected by orthopedic surgeons, will set and integrate to the injured site after placement, and will be resorbed over time as it induces rapid in situ tissue regeneration via sustained delivery of osteoinductive drugs...

Elastin is the extracellular protein primarily responsible for elasticity in animal tissues. Elastin self-assembles from its protein building block unit, tropoelastin, via a liquid-liquid phase separation process known as coacervation...
