Artificial intelligence in predicting, determining and controlling cell phenotype or tissue function in inflammatory diseases
The last decade has seen rapid development in the use of computational techniques at bulk tissue and single-cell level. However, our knowledge remains limited in this regard, and further progress is needed, especially in inflammatory and degenerative diseases. Controlling, modeling, or predicting cellular phenotype in this context using artificial intelligence (AI) will greatly improve the available in vitro, in situ, in vivo, and in silico methods, but also aid in the understanding of disease pathology and therapeutic efficiency. These methods not only have ramifications for our pathophysiological understanding of tissue function but are also important for advancing AI methods in cell culture, tissue explants, or in vivo for immunologically relevant characteristics of single cells, cell populations, and tissues to predict cell or tissue function.
Computational Modeling in Tissue Engineering
One of the major challenges in tissue engineering is the translation of biological knowledge on complex cell and tissue behavior into a predictive and robust engineering process. Mastering this complexity is an essential step towards clinical applications of tissue engineering. This volume discusses computational modeling tools that allow studying the biological complexity in a more quantitative way. More specifically, computational tools can help in: (i) quantifying and optimizing the tissue engineering product, e.g. by adapting scaffold design to optimize micro-environmental signals or by adapting selection criteria to improve homogeneity of the selected cell population; (ii) quantifying a...
Basic and Applied Aspects
Animal cell technology is a growing discipline of cell biology which aims not only to understand the structure, function and behavior of differentiated animal cells, but also to ascertain their ability to be used for industrial and medical purposes. Some of the major goals of animal cell technology include: the clonal expansion of differentiated cells, the optimization of their culture conditions, modulation of their ability for the production of medically and pharmaceutically important proteins and the application of animal cells to gene therapy, artificial organs and functional foods. This volume gives the readers a complete review of the present state-of-the-art research in Japan and other countries where this field is well advanced. The Proceedings will be useful to cell biologists, biochemists, molecular biologists, immunologists, biochemical engineers and to those working in either academic environments or in the biotechnology and pharmacy industries related to animal cell culture.
AHA Scientific Sessions 2016: Program Information
The American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions 2016 is bringing big science, big technology, and big networking opportunities to New Orleans, Louisiana this November. This event features five days of the best in science and cardiovascular clinical practice covering all aspects of basic, clinical, population and translational content.
Myc as a Disease Target Beyond Cancer
Myc is a pleiotropic transcription factor fundamental for many cellular processes. It is an infamous and highly-studied oncogene, with around 10,000 articles published in the last decade. The majority of these link it to cancer. The focus on Myc as a hot target in cancer has led to immense efforts – from academia through to pharmaceutical companies – being directed towards finding a Myc inhibitor. Not surprisingly, given its fundamental nature in many physiological processes, Myc has also been linked to a large variety of pathologies other than cancer. The growing efforts to develop Myc inhibitors as cancer therapies will have important implications for the treatment of these diseases to...
Regenerative Medicine and Tissue Engineering
Tissue Engineering may offer new treatment alternatives for organ replacement or repair deteriorated organs. Among the clinical applications of Tissue Engineering are the production of artificial skin for burn patients, tissue engineered trachea, cartilage for knee-replacement procedures, urinary bladder replacement, urethra substitutes and cellular therapies for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The Tissue Engineering approach has major advantages over traditional organ transplantation and circumvents the problem of organ shortage. Tissues reconstructed from readily available biopsy material induce only minimal or no immunogenicity when reimplanted in the patient. This book is aimed at anyone interested in the application of Tissue Engineering in different organ systems. It offers insights into a wide variety of strategies applying the principles of Tissue Engineering to tissue and organ regeneration.
