Gerecht-Nir S, Radisic M, Park H, Cannizzaro C, Boublik J, Langer R, et al.
Int J Dev Biol . 2006 Feb; 50(2-3):233-43. PMID: 16479491
Tissue engineering combines the principles of biology, engineering and medicine to create biological substitutes of native tissues, with an overall objective to restore normal tissue function. It is thought that...

Dolnikov K, Shilkrut M, Zeevi-Levin N, Gerecht-Nir S, Amit M, Danon A, et al.
Stem Cells . 2005 Dec; 24(2):236-45. PMID: 16322641
Since cardiac transplantation is limited by the small availability of donor organs, regeneration of the diseased myocardium by cell transplantation is an attractive therapeutic modality. To determine the compatibility of...

Dolnikov K, Shilkrut M, Zeevi-Levin N, Danon A, Gerecht-Nir S, Itskovitz-Eldor J, et al.
Ann N Y Acad Sci . 2005 Aug; 1047:66-75. PMID: 16093485
Regeneration of the diseased myocardium by cardiac cell transplantation is an attractive therapeutic modality. Yet, because the transplanted cardiomyocytes should functionally integrate within the diseased myocardium, it is preferable that...
4.
Segev H, Kenyagin-Karsenti D, Fishman B, Gerecht-Nir S, Ziskind A, Amit M, et al.
Dev Growth Differ . 2005 Jul; 47(5):295-306. PMID: 16026538
During early embryogenesis, the cardiovascular system is the first system to be established and is initiated by a process involving the hypoblastic cells of the primitive endoderm. Human embryonic stem...
5.
Gerecht-Nir S, Dazard J, Golan-Mashiach M, Osenberg S, Botvinnik A, Amariglio N, et al.
Dev Dyn . 2004 Dec; 232(2):487-97. PMID: 15614775
The study of the cascade of events of induction and sequential gene activation that takes place during human embryonic development is hindered by the unavailability of postimplantation embryos at different...

Gerecht-Nir S, Itskovitz-Eldor J
Best Pract Res Clin Obstet Gynaecol . 2004 Dec; 18(6):843-52. PMID: 15582542
Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to give rise to cells that originate from all three germ layers. Among the available human pluripotent cells, human embryonic stem cells...

Golan-Mashiach M, Dazard J, Gerecht-Nir S, Amariglio N, Fisher T, Jacob-Hirsch J, et al.
FASEB J . 2004 Oct; 19(1):147-9. PMID: 15498892
Human embryonic stem cells (ESC) are undifferentiated and are endowed with the capacities of self-renewal and pluripotential differentiation. Adult stem cells renew their own tissue, but whether they can transdifferentiate...

Gerecht-Nir S, Cohen S, Ziskind A, Itskovitz-Eldor J
Biotechnol Bioeng . 2004 Oct; 88(3):313-20. PMID: 15486935
Differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can be instigated through the formation of embryo-like aggregates in suspension, termed human embryoid bodies (hEBs). Controlling cell aggregation and agglomeration during hEBs...

Gerecht-Nir S, Osenberg S, Nevo O, Ziskind A, Coleman R, Itskovitz-Eldor J
Biol Reprod . 2004 Aug; 71(6):2029-36. PMID: 15317687
During early human embryonic development, blood vessels are stimulated to grow, branch, and invade developing tissues and organs. Pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are endowed with the capacity to...

Gerecht-Nir S, Itskovitz-Eldor J
Transpl Immunol . 2004 May; 12(3-4):203-9. PMID: 15157914
Cell therapy refers to the transplantation of healthy, functional and propagating cells to restore the viability or function of deficient tissues. Stem cells are characterized by self-renewal and the potential...
