Co-transplantation of neonatal porcine islets with Sertoli cells combined with short-term monoclonal antibody therapy in preventing neonatal porcine islet xenograft rejection
DownloadFall 2009
The need for an unlimited source of islets and a safer method of immunosuppression has limited the widespread application of islet transplantation. To remedy the shortage of donor tissue, xenotransplantation of neonatal porcine islets (NPI) has been proposed. In this study we sought to determine...

Collagen I: an aberrantly expressed molecule in chondrocytes or a key player in tissue stabilization and repair both in vivo and in vitro?
DownloadSpring 2010
Barley, Randall Douglas Corwyn
Extrinsic repair techniques for the treatment of acute chondral injuries continue to yield suboptimal repair. The inability of these techniques to produce hyaline cartilage underscores the limitations in our understanding of basic chondrocyte biology. Conversely, intrinsic repair tissue has not...

Conditioning Electrical Stimulation to Enhance Regeneration and Reinnervation Following Peripheral Nerve Injury
DownloadFall 2019
Background: Peripheral nerve injury is common, identified in 3% of patients presenting to major emergency centers. Poor outcomes are attributable to the slow intrinsic rate of nerve regeneration. A strategy to accelerate this process is of paramount clinical importance. A conditioning crush...
