This study develops a 3D bioprinted colorectal cancer model using fibrin-enriched hydrogels to show that softer matrices promote cancer cell invasion and stromal interactions.

This study shows L-lactic acid reduces myocardial infarct size and improves cardiac function through MCT1 transport, metabolic reprogramming, and gene expression changes in both acute and chronic settings.

This paper introduces 3D-TFM to measure cell-substrate forces in 3D environments and shows cells switch from contractile to extensile behavior as volume decreases.
