Does oxidative stress shorten telomeres in vivo? A review [PDF]
, 2017 The length of telomeres, the protective caps of chromosomes, is increasingly used as a biomarker of individual health state because it has been shown to predict chances of survival in a range of endothermic species including humans.

Functional Hydrogel for Modulating Lipid Droplets and Neuroinflammation in Head Injury
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.After TBI, elevated cholesterol levels in activated microglia lead to the accumulation of cholesterol esters in lipid droplets, exacerbating neuroinflammation. A β‐cyclodextrin‐conjugated GelMA (βCD‐GelMA) hydrogel is developed to promotes cholesterol efflux and reduces LDL influx, thereby alleviating intracellular cholesterol and lipid droplet buildup.
