In biofabrication processes, cells are positioned at defined coordinates in three-dimensional space using automated and computer controlled techniques (Moroni et al 2018 Trends Biotechnol. 36 384-402), usually with the aid of biomaterials that are either (i) directly processed with the cells as suspensions/dispersions, (ii) deposited simultaneously in a separate printing process, or (iii) used as a transient support material. Materials that are suited for biofabrication are often referred to as bioinks and have become an important area of research within the field. In view of this special issue on bioinks, we aim herein to briefly summarize the historic evolution of this term within the field of biofabrication. Furthermore, we propose a simple but general definition of bioinks, and clarify its distinction from biomaterial inks.}, language = {en} } @article{KirchnerStopperPappetal.1993, author = {Kirchner, S. and Stopper, Helga and Papp, T. and Eckert, I. and Yoo, H.

Suchchromosomes (K- Chromosomes) may constitute a novel mechanism for the genesis of aneuploidy. Wehave analyzed primary~ immortalized and malignant marnmalian cells for the presence of kinetochore proteins and micronuclei. Our resuJts suggest a correlation of the K- chromosome and micronucleus frequency with the variability in chromosome number. Upon in situ hybridization with the minor satellite and alpha satellite sequences some Kchromosomes showed a signal. This indicates that the observed lack of kinetocbores is not necessarily due to a lack of centromeric DNA. We conclude that dislocated K- chromosomes may become incorporated into micronuclei which are prone to loss. Such events would be associated with the generation of aneuploidy.}, subject = {Toxikologie}, language = {en} } @article{OrtizAbioseBichetetal.2016, author = {Ortiz, Alberto and Abiose, Ademola and Bichet, Daniel G. and Cabrera, Gustavo and Charrow, Joel and Germain, Dominique P. and Hopkin, Robert J. and Jovanovic, Ana and Linhart, Aleš and Maruti, Sonia S. and Mauer, Michael and Oliveira, Jo{\~a}o P. and Patel, Manesh R. and Politei, Juan and Waldek, Stephen and Wanner, Christoph and Yoo, Han-Wook and Warnock, David G.}, title = {Time to treatment benefit for adult patients with Fabry disease receiving agalsidase beta: data from the Fabry Registry}, series = {Journal of Medical Genetics}, volume = {53}, journal = {Journal of Medical Genetics}, number = {7}, doi = {10.1136/jmedgenet-2015-103486}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-188241}, pages = {495-502}, year = {2016}, abstract = {Background Agalsidase beta is a form of enzyme replacement therapy for Fabry disease, a genetic disorder characterised by low alpha-galactosidase A activity, accumulation of glycosphingolipids and life-threatening cardiovascular, renal and cerebrovascular events. In clinical trials, agalsidase beta cleared glycolipid deposits from endothelial cells within 6 months; clearance from other cell types required sustained treatment. We hypothesised that there might be a 'lag time' to clinical benefit after initiating agalsidase beta treatment, and analysed the incidence of severe clinical events over time in patients receiving agalsidase beta. Methods The incidence of severe clinical events (renal failure, cardiac events, stroke, death) was studied in 1044 adult patients (641 men, 403 women) enrolled in the Fabry Registry who received agalsidase beta (average dose 1 mg/kg every 2 weeks) for up to 5 years. Results The incidence of all severe clinical events was 111 per 1000 person-years (95\% CI 84 to 145) during the first 6 months. After 6 months, the incidence decreased and remained stable within the range of 40-58 events per 1000 patient-years. The largest decrease in incidence rates was among male patients and those aged >= 40 years when agalsidase beta was initiated. Conclusions Contrary to the expected increased incidence of severe clinical events with time, adult patients with Fabry disease had decreased incidence of severe clinical events after 6 months treatment with agalsidase beta 1 mg/kg every 2 weeks.}, language = {en} }
