We spatiotemporally pattern these cues using photoinduced degradation, viscoelasticity, and bond formation to study how intestinal stem cell colonies respond to alterations in geometric confinement, ...
Moreover, the 2D structure preserves the natural organization of cells. The top and bottom of a cell remain distinctly separate, as in a real organ. Intestinal cells, for example, have two ...
A study led by David Sancho at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) in Madrid reveals how an increase in intestinal permeability allows the natural gut bacteria to cross the ...
