Advanced Hydrogels for Cartilage Tissue Engineering: Recent Progress and Future Directions (2021)
Journal Article
Hafezi, M., Nouri Khorasani, S., Zare, M., Esmaeely Neisiany, R., & Davoodi, P. (2021). Advanced Hydrogels for Cartilage Tissue Engineering: Recent Progress and Future Directions. Polymers, 13(23), Article 4199. https://doi.org/10.3390/polym13234199

Cartilage is a tension- and load-bearing tissue and has a limited capacity for intrinsic self-healing. While microfracture and arthroplasty are the conventional methods for cartilage repair, these methods are unable to completely heal the damaged tis...

Codelivery of anti-cancer agents via double-walled polymeric microparticles/injectable hydrogel: A promising approach for treatment of triple negative breast cancer (2017)
Journal Article
Davoodi, P., Ng, W. C., Srinivasan, M. P., & Wang, C. (2017). Codelivery of anti-cancer agents via double-walled polymeric microparticles/injectable hydrogel: A promising approach for treatment of triple negative breast cancer. Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 114(12), 2931-2946. https://doi.org/10.1002/bit.26406

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive sub-type of breast cancer that rarely responds to conventional chemotherapy. Therefore, novel agents or new routes need to be developed to improve treatment efficacy and diminish severe side-effec...
