Lee H, Samolyk B, Pins G
J Funct Biomater . 2025 Jan; 16(1). PMID: 39852577
Large skeletal muscle injuries such as volumetric muscle loss (VML) disrupt native tissue structures, including biophysical and biochemical signaling cues that promote the regeneration of functional skeletal muscle. Various biofabrication...

Chrobak M, Hansen K, Gershlak J, Vratsanos M, Kanellias M, Gaudette G, et al.
ACS Biomater Sci Eng . 2021 Jan; 3(7):1394-1403. PMID: 33429697
The ability to modulate the mechanical properties, and cell alignment within a cardiac patch without hindering cell functionality may have significant impact on developing therapies for treating myocardial infarctions. We...

Carnes M, Pins G
Bioengineering (Basel) . 2020 Aug; 7(3). PMID: 32751847
Millions of Americans suffer from skeletal muscle injuries annually that can result in volumetric muscle loss (VML), where extensive musculoskeletal damage and tissue loss result in permanent functional deficits. In...

Carnes M, Gonyea C, Mooney R, Njihia J, Coburn J, Pins G
Tissue Eng Part C Methods . 2020 May; 26(6):317-331. PMID: 32364015
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been investigated as a catalyst to crosslink tissue-engineered hydrogels because of its mild reaction conditions and ability to modulate the mechanical properties of the matrix. Here,...

Robbins E, Pins G, Laflamme M, Gaudette G
J Biomed Mater Res A . 2020 Apr; 108(10):2123-2132. PMID: 32323417
Myocardial infarction (MI) results in the death of cardiac tissue, decreases regional contraction, and can lead to heart failure. Tissue engineered cardiac patches containing human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes...

Carnes M, Pins G
J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater . 2020 Jan; 108(5):2308-2319. PMID: 31967415
To regenerate functional muscle tissue, engineered scaffolds should impart topographical features to induce myoblast alignment by a phenomenon known as contact guidance. Myoblast alignment is an essential step towards myotube...
