In the last few decades, Bone Tissue Engineering (BTE) has been developed as an effective and alternative approach for treating large bone defects. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is an emerging technology expected to revolutionize the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Several efforts have been made to stimulate bone regeneration by the release of osteogenic small …
Currently there are several dermal substitutes, but these are also associated with a range of problems such as reduced vascularization, formation of excessive fibrosis, lack of flexibility, inability to maintain hydration of the wound, among others. This study proposes to develop a skin equivalent that meets any of the above requirements. The device bilayer developed is composed of polyvi…
Hydrogels have been widely studied, especially as injectable materials for applications as biomaterials. These hydrogels may possess thermosensitive features near body temperature (LCST - Lower Critical Solution Temperature - around 37ºC), in addition to rapid gelation, which allows it use as carrier drugs, cells or cell growth factors as injections. The current challenge is to make these…
Bioreabsorbable polymers are widely used as scaffolds in tissue engineering. However, due to their hydrophobic nature, modification techniques based on graft of chemical functional groups and immobilization of bioactive molecules have been developed, in order to promote biofuncionalization of material surface, causing better interaction between cell / polymer. This study aim at…

The bioluminescent reporter genes that encode luciferases are among the most sensitive and frequently used to monitor non-invasively cellular processes, in real time. Unlike fluorescent reporter genes such as GFP, which have disadvantages such as autoabsorption of irradiated light, autofluorescence and phototoxicity, bioluminescent reporter genes have the advantage of producing their own …
The use of bandages made of hydrogel modified with anti-inflammatory and regenerative drugs to assist cutaneous regeneration, as well as benefit inflammatory processes, has a high relevance in medical and tissue engineering fields. In this context, Pluronic®, an biologically inert, synthetic and thermo-responsive hydrogel that may be applied as bioink or bandages, is capable of being modi…

In the treatment of a skin wound is necessary to know all the physiological process of wound healing, because there are situations when is necessary to take actions to optimize it. In complex wounds is necessary skin autograft, but, sometimes, there is not the appropriate amount of donor area, or the receptor area is not in conditions to receive the graft. Thus, one alternative is the use…

The firefly luciferin-luciferase system has been used in an enormous variety of bioanalytical applications. Firefly luciferase genes have been widely used as reporters in gene expression studies and for cell tracking in biological and pathological processes, including cell proliferation studies, cytotoxicity assays, and metastasis in model animals, emerging as a novel technology replacing…
The use of bandages made of hydrogel modified with anti-inflammatory and regenerative drugs to step up cutaneous regeneration and control the inflammatory processes has high relevance in medical and tissue engineering fields. In this context, Pluronic, a biologically inert, synthetic, and thermo-responsive hydrogel that may be applied as bioink or bandages, is chemically modifiable, and t…
The class of hydrogels has been developed since past years, mainly the injectable materials. These types of materials showed thermoresponsive temperatures near human body conditions (37ºC) named LCST - Low Critical Solution Temperature. The primary challenge of this hydrogels is tunable mechanical properties and biodegradability of these materials in vitro for posterior use in vivo. The p…
