NADPH Oxidase Isoforms and Anti-hypertensive Effects of Atorvastatin Demonstrated in Two Animal Models

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
Beneficial effects of statins on cardiovascular diseases have been attributed to decreased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). We tested the hypothesis that atorvastatin protects against the development of hypertension by reducing levels of ...

Sphingosylphosphorylcholine induces proliferation of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells via activation of JNK

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) has been implicated in a variety of cellular responses, including proliferation and differentiation. In this study, we demonstrate that d-erythro-SPC, but not l-threo-SPC, stereoselectively stimulated the proliferation ...

Ordered Pt3Mn Intermetallic Nanoparticles Supported on Atomically Dispersed Mn–N–C as Electrocatalysts for Fuel Cells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Ordered L12‐Pt3Mn intermetallic alloys are uniformly deposited onto atomically dispersed Mn–N–C supports. The synergistic effect between MnN4 sites and Pt3Mn elevates interfacial binding strength and dissolution barriers while favorably weakening *OH adsorption. It delivers exceptional catalytic activity and stability in fuel cells, serving as an ideal

Atomic Layer Deposition Processes: Versatile Platforms for Engineering ZnO‐Chitosan Biointerfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Vapour phase metalation (VPM), multiplied pulsed vapour phase infiltration (MPI), and O2 plasma‑enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) tailor Zn–chitosan (Zn‑CS) films. PEALD improves wettability and biocompatibility. MPI enhances semiconductor behavior. Antiseptic selectivity: VPM → E. coli; MPI → H. pylori.

π‐Extended COUPY Fluorophores for Targeted Near‐Infrared Fluorescence and Lifetime Imaging in Live Cells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
π‐Extended COUPY dyes, obtained by vinylogation of coumarin‐based COUPY scaffolds, shift absorption, and emission deep into the NIR region while preserving compactness and synthetic accessibility. These bright, photostable dyes enable live‐cell imaging, FLIM, and site‐specific peptide conjugation, offering a modular platform for targeted bioimaging and

Controlling Photochromism of Donor‐Acceptor Stenhouse Adducts on Micro‐Dot Arrays Beyond Human‐Eyes Resolution for Dynamic Light Encryption

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a micro‐dot array strategy for dynamic light encryption, utilizing DASA‐based photochromism with resolution beyond human‐eye capacity. By precisely controlling isomerization kinetics, the method reveals multi‐layered encrypted information under specific light irradiation, enhancing information security and anti‐counterfeiting ...

CD177 Deficiency Defines a Stable Subtype of Human Neutrophil Granulocytes with Tumor Promoting Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Human neutrophils exist as two epigenetically imprinted subtypes defined by stable CD177 expression or absence — a ratio that persists across time, circadian rhythms, and inflammation. CD177− neutrophils display a distinct molecular landscape enriched in arginase 1 and lipid metabolism markers, accumulate in head‐and‐neck tumors, and associate with ...

Advancing Fruit Bioimpedance Monitoring With Sustainable, Soft, And Bio‐Based Electrodes Beyond ECG

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance spectroscopy enables non‐destructive fruit quality monitoring, but conventional ECG and needle electrodes compromise signal stability, fruit physiology, and sustainability. This perspective highlights the transition toward soft, biocompatible, and biodegradable electrode interfaces based on natural substrates, bio‐derived ...
