Use of gene expression to characterize heterogeneous liver cell populations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Non-parenchymal cells (NPC's) are integral to recreate the native hepatic microenvironment and necessary to maintain in vivo liver function. A variety of in vitro culture systems have been developed to address different ... -
Use Of synthetic solid scaffolds to mechanically support a chondrocyte-seeded peptide hydrogel for articular cartilage repair
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a subtype of OA associated with cartilage defects caused by traumatic joint injury. Because articular cartilage has a limited innate healing response, due to its avascular, aneural, ... -
Using emergent self-organizing maps to identify marine group II archaea genomic fragments from uncharacterized microbial metagenomic sequences
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The validity and usefulness of clustering marine group II tetranucleotide signatures using emergent self-organizing maps was investigated. Fosmids from the HF200 library were chosen for sequencing based on end-sequence ... -
Using optical tweezers, single molecule fluorescence and the ZIF268 protein-DNA system to probe mechanotransduction mechanisms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Optical tweezers instruments use laser radiation pressure to trap microscopic dielectric beads. With the appropriate chemistry, such a bead can be attached to a single molecule as a handle, permitting the application of ... -
