New research reports that primary human dermal fibroblasts seeded into a three-dimensional biodegradable matrix can differentiate in vitro into osteoblasts and chondrocytes, and form three ...

Autologous dermal fibroblasts may decrease risk of rotator cuff retears after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair vs. repair alone. Both treatments showed similar and significant improvements in ...

While Zika has been reported in more than 90 countries, surprisingly little is known about what exactly drives Zika ...

The spread of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which transmits the Zika virus as well as dengue, Rift Valley fever, and ...

By altering the metabolism of the skin, the Zika virus guarantees its own survival, resulting in turning humans into mosquito magnets.

“It doesn’t surprise me per se, because the theory was always there.” Experiments in the 1960s had revealed that the fibroblast-containing dermal compartment of the skin determines the identity of the ...

Zika virus hijacks the skin of its human host to send out chemical signals that lure more mosquitoes to infect and spread the disease further, new research shows.

My postdoctoral research focused on dissecting the plasticity and tissue scale behaviour of skin dermal fibroblast lineages during development, homoeostasis and wound healing. In 2018 I was awarded an ...

An autologous dermal fibroblast injection into the bone-tendon interface after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair may promote tissue healing and reduce the rate of retears, according to published ...
