3D printing intervertebral cage increased stability and long-acting release drugs to promote intervertebral disc fusion
1. Employing SLA 3D printing and CT image-based design techniques aims to enhance the stability of the fusion cage.
2. Evaluating the long-term effects of incorporating small molecular drug, simvastatin, into 3D printing resin for fabricating implants.
Inhaled Liposomal Drug Delivery in Lung Cancer Treatment
1. Studying the effect of liposomal drug on cancer therapy, with a focus on medications administered by inhalation.
2. Analyze the particle size, polydispersity index(PI) and zeta potential of nanoparticles.
3. Analyze drug encapsulation efficiency (EE%), loading capacity (LC%) and release from nanoparticles.
4. In vitro cell study, observe LLC cells survival status to assess drug efficacy.
5. In vivo animal study, using C57BL/6 mice establish lung cancer model and evaluate inhaled liposome drug efficacy.
Cancer Immunotherapy
Preparation of hydroxyapatite (HAP) micro-particle for incorperation of PDL1 and CTLA4 checkpoint inhibitors
Endocytosis of HAP-PDL1 and HAP-CTLA4 by macrophgy, producing exosomal loaded PDL1 and CTLA4
Intra-nasal administration of Exo-PDL1 and Exo-CTLA4 for glioma immunotherapy
Enhancing the concentration of M1 macrophage and Cytotoxic T cell in brain
1.Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is characterized by skin fragility, hence the disease manifests with open wounds.
2. The chitosan-based nanoparticles contain protamine sulfate, which increases the transfection efficiency.
3.The corrective gene will undergo translation in the cytoplasm.
1.Photo-crosslinked hydrogel prevents nucleus pulposus leakage following intervertebral disc injury .
2.A hydrogel scaffold loaded with FG4592 enhances HIF-1α expression, promoting nucleus pulposus regeneration.
3.MRI, micro-CT, immunohistochemistry, and RT-PCR are used to assess intervertebral disc regeneration. .
