Dear Members, The annual conference of the International Society of Biofabrication ISBF is being held this September 17-20 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan...
Mast cells MC are important sentinels of the immune system in all vertebrates. They are effectors in allergy and have important roles in disease by secreting histamine, inflammatory and immunomodulatory substances...
Three-dimensional 3D bioprinting of photocrosslinkable hydrogels has attracted great interest for various tissue engineering applications as the biochemical and mechanical properties of the resulting hydrogel structures can be tuned to generate a physiologically relevant microenvironment for cells...
Despite the extensive development of peptide-based tumor antigen vaccines, the field still faces up enormous challenges from lacking clinical efficacy...
Injectable hydrogels have received much attention to be used as scaffolds for therapeutic cell delivery because of their interesting properties such as biocompatibility, ability to retain water, insignificant mechanical and frictional irritation with the native tissue and having the possibility to be located in the body through minimally invasive operations...
