Published in 2020 at "Nature Biomedical Engineering"

DOI: 10.1038/s41551-020-0549-2

Abstract: Checkpoint-inhibitor (CPI) immunotherapy has achieved remarkable clinical success, yet its efficacy in ‘immunologically cold’ tumours has been modest. Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a powerful cytokine that activates the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system;… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Biomaterials science"

DOI: 10.1039/c7bm00806f

Abstract: Bladder reconstruction remains challenging for urological surgery due to lack of suitable regenerative scaffolds. In a previous study, we had used a collagen-binding basic fibroblast growth factor (CBD-bFGF) to bind bFGF to the collagen scaffold,… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Microbiology"

DOI: 10.1099/mic.0.001191

Abstract: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans , a causative agent of periodontitis and non-oral diseases, synthesizes a trimeric extracellular matrix protein adhesin A (EmaA) that mediates collagen binding and biofilm formation. EmaA is found as two molecular forms, which… read more here.
