Comparative assessment of several automatic CPAP devices' responses: a bench test study

ERJ Open Research, 2015
Automatic continuous positive airway pressure (APAP) devices adjust the delivered pressure based on the breathing patterns of the patient and, accordingly, they may be more suitable for patients who have a variety of pressure demands during sleep based ...

Opposing roles for ADAMTS2 and ADAMTS14 in myofibroblast differentiation and function. [PDF]

J Pathol
Abstract Crosstalk between cancer and stellate cells is pivotal in pancreatic cancer, resulting in differentiation of stellate cells into myofibroblasts that drives tumour progression. To assess cooperative mechanisms in a 3D context, we generated chimeric spheroids using human and mouse cancer and stellate cells. Species‐specific deconvolution of bulk‐

Optical control of endogenous receptors and cellular excitability using targeted covalent photoswitches

Nature Communications, 2016
Biological activity can be photoswitched by light-regulated drugs, but so far only diffusible ligands have been shown to work on endogenous receptors.

A Mouse Model Suggests That Heart Failure and Its Common Comorbidity Sleep Fragmentation Have No Synergistic Impacts on the Gut Microbiome

Microorganisms, 2021
Heart failure (HF) is a common condition associated with a high rate of hospitalizations and adverse outcomes. HF is characterized by impairments of either the cardiac ventricular filling, ejection of blood capacity or both.

Biomechanical Response of Lung Epithelial Cells to Iron Oxide and Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Increasing evidence shows that lungs can be damaged by inhalation of nanoparticles (NPs) at environmental and occupational settings. Recent findings have associated the exposure to iron oxide (Fe2O3) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) – NPs widely used in ...

Ultra‐Small Fatty Acid‐Stabilized Magnetite Nanocolloids Synthesized by In Situ Hydrolytic Precipitation

Journal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Simple, fast, large‐scale, and cost‐effective preparation of uniform controlled magnetic nanoparticles remains a major hurdle on the way towards magnetically targeted applications at realistic technical conditions. Herein, we present a unique one‐pot approach that relies on simple basic hydrolytic in situ coprecipitation of inexpensive metal salts (Fe2+

Differential Oxygenation in Tumor Microenvironment Modulates Macrophage and Cancer Cell Crosstalk: Novel Experimental Setting and Proof of Concept

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
Hypoxia is a common characteristic of many solid tumors that has been associated with tumor aggressiveness. Limited diffusion of oxygen generates a gradient of oxygen availability from the blood vessel to the interstitial space and may underlie the ...

Cluster and Kill: the Use of Clustering‐Triggered Emission Materials for Singlet Oxygen Photosensitization in Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 3, January 24, 2025.
Photosensitizers are one of the agents, together with oxygen and light, necessary for performing antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. Aggregation of those polymers is usually undesirable, however taking advantage of aggregated induced emission occurring in Clustering‐Triggered Emission (CTE) materials, hampers singlet oxygen formation which can be aimed
