A Novel 3D Model Co‐Culturing Breast Cancer Cells in Direct Contact with Patient‐Derived Mature Adipocytes Demonstrates Cell‐Type Specific Alterations in Phenotype and Chemosensitivity

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel 3D GelMA co‐culture model enabled sustained direct contact between patient‐derived mature adipocytes and breast cancer cells, revealing subtype‐specific interactions. MDA‐MB‐231 co‐culture caused adipocyte perilipin‐1 loss and reduced chemotherapy responsiveness, while MCF7 cells showed partial epithelial‐mesenchymal transition; both cell lines

Bioinspired and Biomimetic Materials/Architecture in Skin Regeneration [PDF]

Albert Einstein once said: “Everything you can imagine, nature has already created”. With almost four-billion-year evolution, from single-celled organisms to humankind, natural systems have been perfected and thus their functioning principle, design, and

Artemisinin‐Loaded Core‐Shell Microspheres Modulate Histone Lactylation to Remodel the Microenvironment for Cartilage Protection in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ART@PLGA@GH‐A microspheres are developed via microfluidic technology for intra‐articular delivery of artemisinin. The system remodels rheumatoid arthritis microenvironments by regulating metabolic and inflammatory disorders, reducing lactate‐driven histone lactylation and cellular senescence, while restoring cartilage homeostasis and protecting joint ...

Intrinsic Disorder as a Biomimetic Design Paradigm

Molecular engineering has traditionally followed a structure–function paradigm based on well-defined, folded architectures. However, intrinsically disordered proteins and regions (IDPs/IDRs) reveal that nature also exploits disorder as a functional ...
