Fibroblasts, the principal cell type of connective tissue, secrete extracellular matrix
components during tissue development, homeostasis, repair and disease. Despite this …

Postoperative adhesion (POA) widely occurs in soft tissues and usually leads to chronic
pain, dysfunction of adjacent organs and some acute complications, seriously reducing …

Loss of skeletal integrity during ageing and disease is associated with an imbalance in the
opposing actions of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Here we show that intrinsic ageing of …

The inappropriate regenerated fibrous cartilage and subchondral bone of the injured
chondral defect ultimately cause degeneration of the regenerated cartilage, which …

Implantable meshes used in tension‐free repair operations facilitate treatment of internal soft‐
tissue defects. However, clinical meshes fail to achieve anti‐deformation, anti‐adhesion …

It is a great challenge to achieve robustly bonded, fully covered, and nanoscaled coating on
the surface of electrospun nanofibers. Herein, we develop a controllable, facile, and …

Postoperative abdominal adhesions are a common problem after surgery and can produce
serious complications. Current antiadhesive strategies focus mostly on physical barriers and …

After abdominopelvic surgery, there are 90–93% of patients who develop postoperative
adhesions. Post‐operative adhesions can occur after various surgical procedures, which not …

Schwann cell precursors (SCPs) are nerve‐associated progenitors that can generate
myelinating and non‐myelinating Schwann cells but also are multipotent like the neural …

After cardiac surgery, tissue damage to the heart may cause adhesion between heart and its
surrounding tissues. Post‐operative cardiac adhesion may lead to limited normal cardiac …
