Dense carbon-nanotube coating scaffolds stimulate osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
Mori, Hideki; Ogura, Yuko; Enomoto, Kenta; Hara, Masayuki; Maurstad, Gjertrud; Stokke, Bjørn Torger; Kitamura, Shinichi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have desirable mechanical properties for use as biomaterials in orthopedic and dental area such as bone- and tooth- substitutes. Here, we demonstrate that a glass surface densely coated with ... -
Direct Determination of Chitosan–Mucin Interactions Using a Single-Molecule Strategy: Comparison to Alginate–Mucin Interactions
Haugstad, Kristin Elisabeth; Håti, Armend Gazmeno; Nordgård, Catherine Taylor; Adl, Patricia S.; Maurstad, Gjertrud; Sletmoen, Marit; Draget, Kurt Ingar; Dias, Rita de Sousa; Stokke, Bjørn Torger (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Aqueous chitosan possesses attractive interaction capacities with various molecular groups that can be involved in hydrogen bonds and electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. In the present paper, we report on the direct ... -
Polyelectrolyte complexes and multilayers assembled from biopolymers : electrostatically driven formation of mesoscale structures
Maurstad, Gjertrud (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2004:127, Doctoral thesis, 2004)Oppositely charged polyelectrolytes interact spontaneously upon mixing. This interaction can be exploited to form polyelectrolyte complexes and polyelectrolyte multilayers. In the latter case the interaction takes place ... -
The breast cancer-associated glycoforms of MUC1, MUC1-Tn and sialyl-Tn, are expressed in COSMC wild-type cells and bind the C-type lectin MGL
Beatson, Richard; Maurstad, Gjertrud; Picco, Gianfranco; Arulappu, Appitha; Coleman, Julia; Wandell, Hans H; Clausen, Henrik; Mandel, Ulla; Taylor-Papadimitriou, Joyce; Sletmoen, Marit; Burchell, Joy (Journal article, 2015)Aberrant glycosylation occurs in the majority of human cancers and changes in mucin-type O-glycosylation are key events that play a role in the induction of invasion and metastases. These changes generate novel cancer-specific ...
