In Vivo Antibacterial Efficacy of Antimicrobial Peptides Modified Metallic Implants-Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. (2022)
Journal Article
Kaur Sandhu, A., Yang, Y., & Li, W. (2022). In Vivo Antibacterial Efficacy of Antimicrobial Peptides Modified Metallic Implants-Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. ACS Biomaterials Science and Engineering, 1749-1762. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsbiomaterials.1c01307

Biomaterial-associated infection is difficult to detect and brings consequences that can lead to morbidity and mortality. Bacteria can adhere to the implant surface, grow, and form biofilms. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can target and kill bacterial...

New approaches suggest term and preterm human fetal membranes may have distinct biomechanical properties. (2022)
Journal Article
Yang, & Wu. (2022). New approaches suggest term and preterm human fetal membranes may have distinct biomechanical properties. Scientific reports, 12, Article 5109. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-09005-2

Preterm prelabour rupture of membranes is the leading cause of preterm birth and its associated infant mortality and morbidity. However, its underlying mechanism remains unknown. We utilized two novel biomechanical assessment techniques, ball indenta... Read More about New approaches suggest term and preterm human fetal membranes may have distinct biomechanical properties..

Time-dependent mechanical behaviour of the aortic chronic dissection flap (2022)
Journal Article
Panpho, P., Yang, Y., Davies, H. A., Nawaytou, O., Harky, A., Torella, F., …Akhtar, R. (2022). Time-dependent mechanical behaviour of the aortic chronic dissection flap. Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, 34(5), 892-901. https://doi.org/10.1093/icvts/ivac029

The transition of aortic dissection from acute to chronic is poorly understood. We examined time-dependent mechanical behaviour and biochemical properties of chronic dissection tissues.

Proceedings of International Conference on Biomedical Engineering (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Yang, & Naire. (2021, September). Proceedings of International Conference on Biomedical Engineering. Presented at International Conference on Biomedical Engineering (ICoBE 2021), UniMAP, Malaysia (Virtual)

Aspiration thrombectomy is a life-saving interventional procedure to remove a blood clot from the brain of stroke patients. The pressure and blood flow dynamics during this procedure are crucial in determining the clinical outcomes. A mathematical mo...

Molecular dynamics simulation of peptide attachment on Al-based surfaces (2021)
Journal Article
Lou, T., Bai, X., He, X., Yang, Y., & Yuan, C. (2021). Molecular dynamics simulation of peptide attachment on Al-based surfaces. Progress in Organic Coatings, 157, 106310. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.porgcoat.2021.106310

Biofouling is a serious problem for devices or facilities working in marine environment that needs to be solved. Modifying the contact surface with antimicrobial peptides is a promised technique to inhibit biofouling. However, the attachment behavior...

The Combination of Tissue-Engineered Blood Vessel Constructs and Parallel Flow Chamber Provides a Potential Alternative to In Vivo Drug Testing Models (2021)
Journal Article
Njoroge, W., Hernández Hernández, A. C., Idris Musa, F., Butler, R., Harper, A. G. S., & Yang, Y. (2021). The Combination of Tissue-Engineered Blood Vessel Constructs and Parallel Flow Chamber Provides a Potential Alternative to In Vivo Drug Testing Models. Pharmaceutics, 13(3), Article 340. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics13030340

Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death globally. This has led to significant efforts to develop new anti-thrombotic therapies or re-purpose existing drugs to treat cardiovascular diseases. Due to difficulties of obtaining healthy human bloo...
