Mechanical Interactions Impact the Functions of Immune Cells and Their Application in Immunoengineering

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This review covers the mechanical forces experienced by immune cells through cell–cell and cell–extracellular matrix interactions and how these forces influence their receptors and functions. These relationships between forces and cellular functions can be exploited using engineering techniques to modify the physical properties of materials for novel ...

Medical Materials and Device Innovation: Choosing the Right and Relevant Biological Models

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Choosing the right disease model is key to safe, effective medical innovation. When models reflect human biology and clinical needs, they improve translation, reduce risk, and accelerate progress. Advances in 3D tissues, organ‐on‐chip, and humanized systems offer exciting opportunities. With thoughtful selection and clinician input, biomedical research

Microphysiological Systems in Cancer Research: Advancing Immunotherapy through Tumor Microenvironment‐Integrated Organ‐On‐Chip Models

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Emerging microphysiological systems reproduce the spatial, biochemical, and cellular complexity of the tumor microenvironment, surpassing 2D cultures and murine models. By integrating patient‐derived tumors, perfusable vasculature, and immune trafficking, these organ‐on‐chip platforms reveal mechanisms of immune evasion, predict therapeutic responses ...

Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

An Injectable BMP‐2‐Releasing Porous Hydrogel Regulating the Paracrine Effects of ADSCs Promotes Tendon‐to‐Bone Healing in Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study designs an injectable porous hydrogel (HMs/MBs/ADSCs) integrating hollow microspheres for sustained BMP‐2 release to enhance adipose‐derived stem cells' paracrine effect. It accelerates tendon‐bone healing in rat rotator cuff injuries via spatiotemporal regulation: early AMPK‐mediated mitochondrial protection and late TGF‐β/Smad2/3‐driven ...
