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..

Background
There is uncertain evidence in the dose-response association between overall physical activity levels and clustering of cardiovascular diseases modifiable risk factors (CVDMRF) in Chinese adults. This study examined the hypothesis whether...

Induction of zonal-specific cellular morphology and matrix synthesis for biomimetic cartilage regeneration using hybrid scaffolds. (2018)
Journal Article
Yang. (2018). Induction of zonal-specific cellular morphology and matrix synthesis for biomimetic cartilage regeneration using hybrid scaffolds. Interface, https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2018.0310

Cartilage is anisotropic in nature and organized into distinct zones. Our goal was to develop zonal-specific three-dimensional hybrid scaffolds which could induce the generation of zonal-specific cellular morphology and extracellular matrix (ECM) com...
