Tissue Engineering Paper: 3D astrocyte alignment increases neuron growth

Alignment of astrocytes increases neuronal growth in 3D collagen gels and is maintained following plastic compression to form a spinal cord repair conduit We have published a paper showing that alignment of astrocytes in 3D culture makes them more permissive for neuron growth than unaligned cells. Astrocytes in the damaged central nervous system surround a […]
