    • Endothelial microvascular networks affect gene-expression profiles and osteogenic potential of tissue-engineered constructs 

      Pedersen, Torbjørn Østvik; Blois, Anna L; Xing, Zhe; Xue, Ying; Sun, Yang; Finne-Wistrand, Anna; Akslen, Lars A.; Lorens, James B.; Leknes, Knut N.; Fristad, Inge; Mustafa, Kamal Babikeir Eln (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-05-17)
      Introduction: A major determinant of the potential size of cell/scaffold constructs in tissue engineering is vascularization. The aims of this study were twofold: first to determine the in vitro angiogenic and osteogenic ...

    • Leukocyte transmigration into tissue-engineered constructs is influenced by endothelial cells through Toll-like receptor signaling 

      Bartaula-Brevik, Sushma; Pedersen, Torbjorn Østvik; Blois, Anna L; Papadakou, Panagiota; Finne-Wistrand, Anna; Xue, Ying; Bolstad, Anne Isine; Mustafa, Kamal Babikeir Eln (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12-20)
      Introduction Inflammation plays a crucial role in tissue regeneration, wound healing, and the success of tissue-engineered constructs. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of human umbilical vein endothelial ...

    • Mesenchymal stem cells induce endothelial cell quiescence and promote capillary formation 

      Pedersen, Torbjørn Østvik; Blois, Anna L; Xue, Ying; Xing, Zhe; Sun, Yang; Finne-Wistrand, Anna; Lorens, James B.; Fristad, Inge; Leknes, Knut N.; Mustafa, Kamal Babikeir Eln (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-17)
      Introduction: Rapid establishment of functional blood vessels is a prerequisite for successful tissue engineering. During vascular development, endothelial cells (ECs) and perivascular cells assemble into a complex regulating ...
