Covalent multistep coating of poly(methylpentene), the membrane material in lung ventilators, by using a copper-free "click" approach with a modified cyclic RGD peptide, leads to a highly biocompatible poly(methylpentene) surface. The resulting modified membrane preserves the required excellent gas-flow properties while being densely seeded with lung endothelial cells.

Metallic zinc (Zn) has been demonstrated to be a promising alternative to barrier membrane materials for guided bone regeneration. Surface roughness significantly affects the properties of degradable Zn-based metals, especially within the Janus micro-environments of tissue regeneration. However, the effects of optimal surface roughness on Zn remain unknown.

Natural bone is a self-regenerating nanocomposite made of proteins and minerals. Such self-regenerative capacity can be negatively affected by certain diseases involving the bone or its surrounding tissues. Our study assesses the ability of bone grafting material to regenerate bone in animals who have artificially created critical-sized defects.
