Conditioned Media from Mechanically Stimulated Macrophages Upregulate Osteogenic Genes in Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone fracture healing is a complex, timely orchestrated scenario involving multiple cell types and a plethora of cytokines and regulatory factors. To gain further insight, an in vitro model to a) study macrophage polarization under mechanical load in a fibrin hydrogel and b) subsequently assess the effect of conditioned media derived from macrophages ...

Protocol for adeno-associated virus-mediated optogenetic activation of olfactory output neurons in neonatal mice

STAR Protocols
Summary: Optogenetic manipulation has proven a powerful tool for investigating the mechanisms underlying the function of neuronal networks, but implementing the technique on mammals during early development remains challenging.

Cell Surface Thiol Engineering Mechanoregulates Myogenic Differentiation via the FAK–PI3K–AKT Axis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram illustrating how cell surface modification of skeletal muscle progenitor cells through TCEP treatment reveals enhanced cell adhesion, intracellular tension, and myogenesis at 19.66 kPa stiffness, leading to optimal cell fusion. In contrast, no significant changes are observed in the softer (10.61 kPa) or stiffer (49.4 kPa) matrices ...

Bone‐Derived dECM Hydrogels Support Tunable Microenvironments for In Vitro Osteogenic Differentiation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A tunable methacrylated decellularized bone matrix hydrogel (dECM‐MA) is developed to support 3D culture of human osteoblasts. The hydrogel preserves bone‐specific ECM cues and allows precise control over mechanical properties. This system provides a customizable platform for studying osteogenic differentiation and modeling bone tissue environments for

A Novel Brain Penetrable Nanocarrier Delivers Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor to Treat Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel blood‐brain barrier‐penetrating terpolymer nanoparticle to deliver brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is designed. The BDNF‐TPN significantly enhances BDNF accumulation in the brain following intravenous injection, reduces apoptosis and neuroinflammation, thus promoting neuronal survival and ...
