Absorption rate governs cell transduction in dry macroporous scaffolds

VanBlunk, M., Srikanth, V., Pandit, S. S., Kuznetsov, A. V., & Brudno, Y. (2023, January 1). Biomaterials Science, Vol. 1.

By: M. VanBlunk n, V. Srikanth n, S. Pandit n, A. Kuznetsov n & Y. Brudno n 

MeSH headings : Tissue Scaffolds; Biocompatible Materials; Cell Differentiation; Porosity; Tissue Engineering / methods
topics (OpenAlex): CAR-T cell therapy research; Microfluidic and Bio-sensing Technologies; Viral Infectious Diseases and Gene Expression in Insects; RNA Interference and Gene Delivery
TL;DR: The rate of liquid flow through the scaffolds, rather than pore size or stiffness, serves as a central regulator for efficient Drydux transduction, which provides a fast and inexpensive method for transducing cells for cellular therapy, including for the production of CAR T cells.

Fabrication and Use of Dry Macroporous Alginate Scaffolds for Viral Transduction of T Cells

VanBlunk, M., Agarwalla, P., Pandit, S., & Brudno, Y. (2022, September 9). Journal of Visualized Experiments, Vol. 9.

By: M. VanBlunk n, P. Agarwalla n, S. Pandit n & Y. Brudno n
