Chamber‐Specific Decellularized Extracellular Matrices Differentially Modulate Cardiomyocyte Subtypes to Drive Engineered Heart Tissue Development and Function

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Chamber‐specific decellularized extracellular matrices (ECMs) were developed, preserving native proteomic profiles of ventricular and atrial myocardium. These innate biochemical cues differentially modulate cardiomyocyte subtypes to drive engineered heart tissue development and function, highlighting the importance of incorporating regional ECM cues in

Memristor property of an amorphous Sn–Ga–O thin-film device deposited using mist chemical-vapor-deposition method

AIP Advances, 2020
A memristor property of an amorphous Sn–Ga–O (α-TGO) thin-film device deposited using a mist chemical-vapor-deposition (mist-CVD) method has been found. The α-TGO device can be manufactured at a low cost because it does not include rare metals such as In.

Genetic screening of KCNJ8 in Japanese patients with J-wave syndromes or idiopathic ventricular fibrillation

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2013
Background: J-point elevation has been demonstrated to be associated with ventricular fibrillation (VF) and has been proposed as a cause of the J-wave syndrome (JWS). A mutation of KCNJ8, S422L, was reported as a culprit gene.

Cooperative torus mode emission of O-ring lasers

AIP Advances, 2020
Deformable ring lasers were fabricated by dispersing fluorescent dye (rhodamine 6G) in silicone rubber rings, i.e., the so-called O-rings. When excited with a pulsed green laser, an O-ring of 750 µm diameter exhibited a stimulated emission with a ...

O-GlcNAc modification in endothelial cells modulates adiposity via fat absorption from the intestine in mice

Heliyon
Introduction: Endothelial cells have a crucial function in transporting and exchanging various nutrients. O-GlcNAcylation, mediated by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT), involves the addition of N-acetylglucosamine to proteins and serves as an intracellular ...

Counterintuitive Fluorescence Blue Shift in Symmetry Breaking Dicationic Bis(indolium) with Two‐Photon Absorption Properties for NIR Living Cell Imaging

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Highly water‐soluble dicationic bis(indolium) dyes have been prepared, showing excellent two‐photon absorption and light emission. Their fluorescence behavior discloses an unusual increasing blue shift with increasing solvent polarity, which, in parallel, is beneficial for enhanced detection in biological media.
