Severely burned skin can exhibit serious contractions that may negatively impact the mobility of joints of patients. The method deals with post-burn evolution of skin, in which one considers the balance of momentum, cells, collagen and chemokines. The balances are represented in terms of partial

Macrophages orchestrate reactive particle segregation, compact aggregates of immune cells and non-immune cells and promote fibrosis-surrounding granulomas.
We developed a simple 3D in-vitro model that mimics granuloma formation and categorizes granuloma-inducing inorganic particles. Macrophage

We aim to differentiate ovarian cells isolated from postmenopausal ovaries into steroidogenic theca interna cells. For this purpose, cryopreserved ovarian cortex fragments are used to isolate ovarian cells. These cells are cultured on collagen and supplemented with growth factors defined to promote
