Cigarette smoke extract-induced injury in alveolar cells in model systems.

open access: yes
Cigarette smoke contributes to many diseases. The actions of second and third hand smoke, which have implications for non-smokers and the very young, are just beginning to be appreciated. The overarching hypothesis of this project is that cigarette smoke

Self‐Feeding Living Materials Enabled by Cell Responsive Glycogen Nanoparticles as Metabolic Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Glycogen is introduced as a metabolic battery that offers local and cell‐triggered release of glucose. Glycogen can be stably encapsulated into hydrogel (Dex‐TA) microcapsules that allow for diffusion of glycogen‐degrading enzymes and nutrients.

Alveolar macrophages provide an early Mycobacterium tuberculosis niche and initiate dissemination

open access: yesCell Host and Microbe, 2018
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is initiated in the distal airways, but the bacteria ultimately disseminate to the lung interstitium. Although various cell types, including alveolar macrophages (AM), neutrophils, and permissive monocytes, are ...

Structural aspects of postnatal lung development - alveolar formation and growth

open access: yes, 2006
The human lung is born with a fraction of the adult complement of alveoli. The postnatal stages of human lung development comprise an alveolar stage, a stage of microvascular maturation, and very likely a stage of late alveolarization. The characteristic

Probing the Architecture of Organic Heterojunctions Based on Zn(Salen)‐Type/Lu(Bis‐phthalocyanine) Complexes and Their Potential Application as Gas Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Planar bilayer heterojunctions are fabricated from two molecular materials and compared to solution‐processed bulk heterojunctions. Raman spectroscopy and conductive AFM studies reveal the formation of conductive pillar‐like structures within a poorly conductive matrix.

Crossed hemifacial hyperplasia: A diagnostic dilemma

open access: yesJournal of Indian Society of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry, 2007
Crossed hemifacial hyperplasia is a rare condition producing facial asymmetry and overgrowth of the extremities of the opposite side. Very few cases are reported in literature.

Local lung responses following endobronchial elastase and lipopolysaccharide instillation in sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Chronic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure may contribute to the pathogenesis of a number of lung diseases including COPD and emphysema. We sought to develop a large-animal model of emphysema using repeated LPS administration into sheep lung segments.

Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.

Hierarchical Multi‐Material Architectures With Gradient Design for Dynamic‐Range Flexible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchical multi‐material TPMS lattices are engineered as flexible tactile sensors by combining soft and stiff elastomeric layers with a conformal conductive coating. The bilayer architecture delivers sensitivity at low pressures while maintaining a broad detectable range under large loads, enabling reliable pressure and vibration monitoring for ...
