Imine Crosslinked, Injectable, and Self‐Healing Fucoidan Hydrogel with Immunomodulatory Properties
This study develops an injectable fucoidan‐based hydrogel with tunable properties for tissue engineering. By oxidizing fucoidan (OFu) to introduce aldehydes, imine crosslinks are formed with amine‐containing polymers, enabling self‐healing, injectability, and long‐term stability (≥28 days). The OFu‐gelatin hydrogel demonstrated biocompatibility, immune‐

Influence of Hypoxia on a Biomaterial Model of the Bone Marrow Perivascular Niche
Hypoxia is a key factor in bone marrow physiology and hematopoietic stem cell behavior. Lower oxygen tension influences the secretion of vasculature‐derived hematopoietic regulatory factors and alters hematopoietic cell behavior in a conditioned medium hydrogel model of bone marrow. Cyclosporin A is used to mitigate normoxic stress during hematopoietic

Wavelet analysis of corneal endothelial electrical potential difference reveals cyclic operation of the secretory mechanism [PDF]
There is evidence that the electrical potential difference of corneal endothelium (TEPD) is related electro-osmotically to fluid transport. Hence, determination of the TEPD would serve as a measure of the fluid movement. The oscillatory nature of the TEPD has been recognized recently using the Fourier transform; the oscillations of the highest ...

Stem cell spheroids, produced via a high‐throughput microfabrication technique, are transported within a vortex generated at the outlet channels of a cross‐slot millifluidic chip. For Reynolds number exceeding 170–200, intermittent high shear stresses applied to each spheroid within the vortex trigger a massive release of biologically active ...

Temperature‐ and pH‐Responsive Polymeric Photocatalysts for Enhanced Control and Recovery
Stimuli‐responsive photocatalytic materials have emerged that are not only able to efficiently catalyze reactions but can use external stimuli to modulate their physical properties. This technique has been used to control the reactivity of a photocatalytic material turning it on/off. Moreover, photocatalytic materials have been synthesized which can be

Ceria‐Supported Cobalt Catalyst for Low‐Temperature Methanation at Low Partial Pressures of CO2
Co/CeO2 is an efficient low‐temperature methanation catalyst at CO2 partial pressures down to atmospheric concentrations. Advanced spectroscopic investigations unveiled that the combination of a higher concentration and higher intrinsic activity of active intermediates (formates and carbonyls) explains the high activity, emphasizing the role of the ...
