Cell Stress Chaperones
. 2018 Mar;
23(5):813-826.
PMID: 29542021
When analyzing small stress proteins of rat and human tissues by electrophoretic methods followed by western blotting, and using the anti-HspB1/anti-HspB5 antibody clone 8A7, we unexpectedly found a protein with...

Surgery
. 2014 Mar;
155(4):668-74.
PMID: 24582493
Background: The internal anal sphincter (IAS) is a major contributing factor to pressure within the anal canal and is required for maintenance of rectoanal continence. IAS damage or weakening results...

Tissue Eng Part A
. 2013 Dec;
20(11-12):1603-11.
PMID: 24328537
Muscle replacement for patients suffering from extensive tissue loss or dysfunction is a major objective of regenerative medicine. To achieve functional status, bioengineered muscle replacement constructs require innervation. Here we...

Biomaterials
. 2013 Jun;
34(28):6649-58.
PMID: 23746858
Enteric neuronal progenitor cells are neural crest-derived stem cells that can be isolated from fetal, post-natal and adult gut. Neural stem cell transplantation is an emerging therapeutic paradigm to replace...

Biomaterials
. 2012 Apr;
33(19):4810-7.
PMID: 22483012
Intestinal tissue engineering is an emerging field due to a growing demand for intestinal lengthening and replacement procedures secondary to massive resections of the bowel. Here, we demonstrate the potential...

Gastroenterology
. 2011 Apr;
141(1):310-9.
PMID: 21463628
Background & Aims: To restore fecal continence, the weakened pressure of the internal anal sphincter (IAS) must be increased. We bioengineered intrinsically innervated human IAS to emulate sphincteric physiology in...

Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol
. 2011 Mar;
300(6):G1022-32.
PMID: 21372166
Caveolin-1 (cav-1) plays a key role in PKC-α and RhoA signaling pathways during acetylcholine (ACh)-induced contraction of colonic smooth muscle cells (CSMC). Aged rat CSMC showed sluggish contractility, concomitant with...

Pediatr Surg Int
. 2010 Nov;
27(2):137-43.
PMID: 21046117
Purpose: Our laboratory has developed and implanted a novel bioengineered internal anal sphincter (IAS) to treat anal incontinence. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) has been used in mice; however, the optimal...

Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol
. 2010 Sep;
299(5):G1164-76.
PMID: 20829522
Small heat shock proteins HSP27 and HSP20 have been implicated in regulation of contraction and relaxation in smooth muscle. Activation of PKC-α promotes contraction by phosphorylation of HSP27 whereas activation...

. 2010 Jun;
299(2):G430-9.
PMID: 20558766
We have previously developed bioengineered three-dimensional internal anal sphincter (IAS) rings from circular smooth muscle cells isolated from rabbit and human IAS. We provide proof of concept that bioengineered mouse...
