Article Synopsis
- Engineering tissue implants using human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) shows potential for repairing large tissue losses but faces challenges in survival and integration.* -
- The study introduces scalable vessel-integrated muscle-like lattices (VMLs) that feature dense hiPSC-derived myofibers and vessel-like microchannels, enhancing myofiber maturation and host integration.* -
- This advanced bioprinting technology allows for the creation of larger, prevascularized muscle tissues, which successfully restore muscle function and promote healing in volumetric muscle loss injury models.*
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) has been the gold standard in the biomedical field due to its composition and similarity to human bone. Properties such as shape, size, morphology, and ionic substitution can be tailored through the use of different synthesis techniques and compounds. Regardless of the ability to determine its physicochemical properties, a conclusion for the correlation with the biological response it is yet to be found.

- The paper proposes that there is a constant optimal time for ultrasonic processing in size reduction operations, which is determined by the characteristics of the product rather than the processing methods used.
- Using hempseed oil nanoemulsions as a case study, it was found that variations in product parameters significantly affect particle size and emulsion stability, while the duration of ultrasonication did not significantly impact the results.
- The optimal ultrasonication time identified was 10 minutes for maximum size reduction, which remained consistent across different emulsion systems, supporting the theory that the optimal time is a constant related only to the product being processed.
