Usage of polymer brushes as substrates of bone cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Materials Science in China, 2009
Implant medical research and tissue engineering both target the design of novel biomaterials for the improvement of human health and clinical applications. In order to develop improved surface coatings for hard tissue (bone) replacement materials and implant devices, we are developing micropatterned coatings consisting of polymer brushes.

Confinement of two-dimensional rods in slit pores and square cavities

open access: yes, 2015
Using Monte Carlo simulation, we analyse the behaviour of two-dimensional hard rods in four different types of geometric confinement: (i) a slit pore where the particles are confined between two parallel walls with homeotropic anchoring; (ii) a hybrid ...

Injectable hydrogels of newly designed brush biopolymers as sustained drug-delivery vehicle for melanoma treatment

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2021
Novel biocompatible and brush copolymers have been developed for cancer treatment using its controlled drug-release potential. Polyurethane graft on linear dextrin has been synthesized to control the hydrophilic–hydrophobic balance for regulated drug ...

Perineuronal nets restrict transport near the neuron surface: A coarse-grained molecular dynamics study

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2022
Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are mesh-like extracellular matrix structures that wrap around certain neurons in the central nervous system. They are hypothesized to stabilize memories in the brain and act as a barrier between cell and extracellular space.

Evaluation of pressure-stiffness coupling in brush seals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Brush seals are comprised of fine diameter fibers densely packed between retaining and backing plates. To achieve seal compliance bristles are arranged to contact rotor with some lay angle.

How the projection domains of NF-L and alpha-internexin determine the conformations of NF-M and NF-H in neurofilaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Making use of a numerical self-consistent field method and polymer brush concepts, we model the solvated corona of neurofilaments (NF) composed of projection domains (unstructured tails) of constituent proteins.

Clinical comparison of liquid-based and conventional cytology of oral brush biopsies: a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2018
Background Exfoliative cytology performed on oral brush samples can help dentists to decide, whether a given oral lesion is (pre-) malignant. The use of non-invasive brush biopsies as an auxiliary tool in the diagnosis of oral mucosal lesions has gained ...

Factors Associated with Malignant Biliary Strictures in Patients with Atypical or Suspicious Cells on Brush Cytology [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Endoscopy, 2019
Background/Aims Pathological diagnosis of biliary strictures with atypical or suspicious cells on endoscopic retrograde brush cytology and indeterminate strictures on imaging is challenging.

Utility of indigenous cytology technique in the diagnosis of oral cavity lesions using normal saline as a processing fluid: A comparative study

open access: yesJournal of Cytology, 2023
Background: Oral cancer is a major health problem in developing countries. Cytology has been widely accepted as a tool in the early diagnosis of cancer.
