Other activities.
Biomedical research, regenerative medicine and tissue engineering on osteo-articular tissue . In particular, I studied new strategies to promote musculoskeletal tissue healing by stimulating intrinsic properties of MSC , including growth factors and cytokines release, that is a major research issue, recognizing that the regenerative potential of mesenchymal stromal cells is modulated by microenvironment .
I studied MSCs behavior in different pathophysiological settings using both static and dynamic culture conditions, different external stimuli (hypoxia, inflammation,etc.) and different 3D models (pellet, scaffold, 3D bioprinting).
