First and Last Name: Ksenia Menshikh Student/PhD/Postdoc: PhD Candidate Institute: Università del Piemonte Orientale Department: Department of Health Sciences Group leader: Prof. Lia Rimondini (INNOVATION Lab) Matrix Marvel: Stem Cells Thriving on Bone-Mimicking Scaffolds Short description of image: In our studies, I am searching for a synthetic scaffold suitable for the use as a bone-like environment in 3D models of skeletal diseases in vitro. This scanning electron microscopy image shows extracellular matrix (pink) produced by primary mesenchymal stem cells seeded on the 3D-printed tricalcium phosphate scaffold (its granules are in blue). * The fact that the cells produced abundant amounts of matrix and integrated in the scaffold’s microstructure indicates that the tricalcium phosphate scaffold is cytocompatible and can potentially play role of a bone-like environment - at least, from the point of observations in vitro. Instrument used to produce the image: Scanning Electron Microscope JSM-IT500 by Leica.
