Droplet Microfluidics for Tumor Drug‐Related Studies and Programmable Artificial Cells
Anticancer drug development is a crucial step toward cancer treatment, that requires realistic predictions of malignant tissue development and sophisticated drug delivery. Tumors often acquire drug resistance and drug efficacy, hence cannot be accurately

FERROMAGNETIC ARTIFICIAL CELLS FOR ARTIFICIAL CIRCULATION
It is known that deoxygenated blood is paramagnetic. A ferrofluidic actuator for an implantable artificial heart has been studied. The magnetic fluid consists of ferromagnetic magnetite particles (10 nm). If artificial cells encapsulating ferromagnetic particles are mixed in blood, the circulation is maintained by applying a magnetic field to the blood.

Recognition of viral glycoproteins by influenza A-specific cross- reactive cytolytic T lymphocytes [PDF]
Two populations of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated after influenza A virus infection can be distinguished into one with specificity for the sensitizing hemagglutinin type and a second with cross-reactivity for antigens induced by other type-A ...

An Immune Inspired Approach to Anomaly Detection [PDF]
The immune system provides a rich metaphor for computer security: anomaly detection that works in nature should work for machines. However, early artificial immune system approaches for computer security had only limited success.

Formation of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles Assisted by Fluorinated Nanoparticles
In the quest to produce artificial cells, one key challenge that remains to be solved is the recreation of a complex cellular membrane. Among the existing models, giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are particularly interesting due to their intrinsic ...

Communication and quorum sensing in non-living mimics of eukaryotic cells. [PDF]
Cells in tissues or biofilms communicate with one another through chemical and mechanical signals to coordinate collective behaviors. Non-living cell mimics provide simplified models of natural systems; however, it has remained challenging to implement ...
