(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Helicobacter hepaticus infection of A/JCr mice is a model of liver cancer resulting from chronic active inflammation. We monitored hepatic global gene expression profiles and correlated them to histological liver lesions ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Molecular Recognition is an implicit and necessary step for proteins to realize their function. The late Professor Toyoichi Tanaka of M.I.T. proposed that polymer gels be used as protein 'mimics'. Multi-contact adsorption ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The objective of this work is to functionalize an existing polymer such that it better mimics natural tissue for tissue growth and regeneration. Numerous other processes have tried and accomplished this by non-specific ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Electronic structure calculations are becoming more widely applied to complex and realistic materials systems and devices, reaching well into the domain of nanotechnology, with applications that include metal-molecule ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Biomaterials and biomineralization have been successfully utilized in a broad variety of technical applications. Properties of natural biopolymers, such as the ability to control the nucleation, growth, and organization ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Molecular simulation has become a very powerful tool for understanding the process of polymer crystallization. By using carefully constructed simulations, one can independently observe the two phenomena responsible for ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This work used molecular dynamics (MD) and Monte Carlo (MC) method to study the homogeneous crystal nucleation in the melts of n-alkanes, the simplest class of chain molecules. Three n-alkanes with progressive chain length ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1971)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Located in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the cartilaginous tissues such as human intervertebral disc, the large self-assembling proteoglycans, aggrecan, are essential for the disc in resisting multiaxial compressive ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Aging is a complex process affecting diverse organisms from bacteria to humans. Despite strong evolutionary arguments against the conservation of a single mechanism of aging, a variety of conserved single gene mutations ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A multi-faceted approach was applied to the molecular design of substrates for the selective adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of connective tissue progenitors (CTPs) from human bone marrow aspirates. The basic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)An ability to control the degree of heterogeneity in cellular phenotypes may be important for cell populations to survive uncertain and ever-changing environments or make cell-fate decisions in response to external stimuli. ...
