This study develops a fibroblast-derived matrix platform to investigate how tumor-associated EDA-FN-enriched matrices influence macrophage behavior in the tumor microenvironment.

This study investigates how tumor-conditioned media affects mammary fibroblast matrix composition, revealing distinct oFN microarchitecture based on cancer cell metastatic potential.

This paper develops a 2D wound closure model to study how diabetic foot ulcer healing is affected by skin stiffness and hyperglycemia, finding that higher stiffness and hyperglycemia slow wound closure.

This study shows FAK differentially regulates cell migration during wound closure on soft and stiff substrates, affecting speed, persistence, and angle.

This study investigates how EDA fibronectin matrix organization during wound closure influences YAP translocation, showing that altered matrix structure in fibrotic wounds disrupts YAP signaling, potentially impairing regenerative repair.
