3D printed Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Hydroxyapatite scaffolds for bone tissue engine...
Biscaia, Sara; Branquinho, Mariana V.; Alvites, Rui D.; Fonseca, Rita; Sousa, Ana Catarina; Pedrosa, Sílvia Santos; Caseiro, Ana R.; Guedes, FernandoBone tissue engineering has been developed in the past decades, with the engineering of bone substitutes on the vanguard of this regenerative approach. Polycaprolactone-based scaffolds are fairly applied for bone regeneration, and several composites have been incorporated so as to improve the scaffolds’ mechanical properties and tissue in-growth. In this study, hydroxyapatite is incorporated on polycaprolactone...

Alvites, Rui D.; Branquinho, Mariana V.; Sousa, Ana C.; Amorim, Irina; Magalhães, Rui; João, Filipa; Almeida, Diogo; Amado, Sandra; Prada, JustinaPeripheral nerve injury remains a clinical challenge with severe physiological and functional consequences. Despite the existence of multiple possible therapeutic approaches, until now, there is no consensus regarding the advantages of each option or the best methodology in promoting nerve regeneration. Regenerative medicine is a promise to overcome this medical limitation, and in this work, chitosan nerve guid...

Rat olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (om-mscs): a characterizati...
Alvites, Rui D.; Branquinho, Mariana V.; Caseiro, Ana R.; Amorim, Irina; Pedrosa, Sílvia Santos; Rêma, Alexandra; Faria, Fátima; Porto, BeatrizStem/stromal cell-based therapies are a branch of regenerative medicine and stand as an attractive option to promote the repair of damaged or dysfunctional tissues and organs. Olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem/stromal cells have been regarded as a promising tool in regenerative therapies because of their several favorable properties such as multipotency, high proliferation rate, helpful location, and few associ...
