This study demonstrates that cellular heterogeneity regulated by substrate stiffness is evident starting from the initial single-cell stage until the resulting multi-cellular stage through distinguished proliferative patterns.

We tested the 3D culture of hepatocytes and revealed that 3D enhanced hepatic functions through regulating the EMT status.

Congratulations to all scholarship winners in our lab.

We preconditioned mesenchymal stem cells with mechanical stimulation to enhance cell survival and functions following implantation in load bearing environment such as nucleus pulposus in intervertebral disc

This work applied a type of elastic micro-scaffold (GMs) to load and prime hMSCs for skin wound healing.
