Abstract Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) occurs when the protein‐folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is overwhelmed, triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore homeostasis. However, severe or persistent ERS can shift the UPR toward pro‐inflammatory, apoptotic, and fibrotic signaling, thereby exacerbating tissue injury ...

In Vitro Reconstruction of Axonal Heat Sensing with a Photothermal Nerve‐on‐a‐Chip
A photothermal nerve‐on‐a‐chip platform is presented that enables precise, localized heating of sensory axons with simultaneous electrical recording. The system reveals millisecond‐scale dynamics of heat‐evoked neural activity and provides a new approach to study how temperature‐dependent ion channel behavior is translated into axonal firing.

This study shows that human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells acquire a functional blood–brain barrier phenotype when co‐cultured with brain pericytes and stimulated with CHIR‐99021, a Wnt/β‐catenin activator. This model recapitulates key barrier properties, inflammatory responses, and transcriptomic features of the native human BBB, offering new ...

Liminal Bioethics for Liminal Statuses: A New Method for Analysing Novel Biological Entities
ABSTRACT Novel biological entities such as cell lines and organoids do not typically fit into established conceptual categories, such as ‘human’ or ‘nonhuman’, ‘gift’ or ‘property’. This makes developing robust ethical principles or policy solutions difficult.
