Synthesis and Characterization of Silk Ionomers for Layer-By-Layer Electrostatic Deposition on Individual Mammalian Cells

Through the optimization of material properties and composition of incubation buffers, silk ionomers could be electrostatically assembled on the surface of murine fibroblasts and human mesenchymal stem cells to form nanoscale multilayers without significantly impairing cell viability.

Skull Base Chordomas and Chondrosarcomas

Chordomas and chondrosarcomas are not sensitive to chemotherapy and there are no approved drugs for their treatment. The present treatment concept is a combination of surgical resection with a maximal excision and preserving patients’ quality of life by adjuvant radiotherapy for both, chordomas and chondrosarcomas.
