[Illinois] Cadherin-Modulated Neural Differentiation of Stem Cells for Neuromuscular Junction Engineering
Online Presentations | 29 Jan 2016 | Contributor(s):: Ellen Qin
Recently, efforts are increasingly made to engineer NMJ in vitro for both fundamental and applied bioscience studies. Certain success was made to modulate neural differentiation of stem cells using soluble factors and cell adhesion matrix properties. However, these studies were often plagued by...

[Illinois] Role for Stiffness in Vascular Fate
Online Presentations | 29 Jan 2016 | Contributor(s):: Lian Wong
Stem cells, including embryonic stem cells (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells, have been explored as tools for studying development, as well as, potential sources for a large number of therapies in regenerative medicine. Traditionally, ESC are cultured on TC-plastic, however; it has been...

[Illinois] Dimeric Trigger Responsive Drug Conjugate for High Loading Nanoencapsulates
Online Presentations | 26 Jan 2016 | Contributor(s):: kaimin Cai
Polymeric micelle is one of the most widely used drug delivery nanomedicine platforms; however, micelle drug delivery systems usually have very low drug loading and poorly defined composition, which greatly limited its further clinical translation. In the course of developing trigger responsive...

[Illinois] Stretch Induced Hyperexcitability of Mice Callosal Pathway
Online Presentations | 26 Jan 2016 | Contributor(s):: Anthony Fan
Memory and learning are thought to result from changes in synaptic strength. Previous studies on synaptic physiology in brain slices have traditionally been focused on biochemical processes. Here, we demonstrate with experiments on mouse brain slices that central nervous system plasticity is also...

[Illinois] Molecular modeling of structure and salt-responsive morphology of polyelectrolyte-based materials
Online Presentations | 11 Dec 2015 | Contributor(s):: Yaroslava G Yingling
In this talk, I will illustrate our recent progress in prediction of responsive morphologies of polyelectrolytes on the example of DNA- based materials. we used atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to determine the sequence, length, and solvent contributions on the persistence length of...
