Electrochemically Driven Dissipative Growth of Affinity Hydrogels for Bioresponsive Interfaces
Voltage pulses drive the growth and reinforcement of hydrogel films under dissipative conditions. This biocompatible strategy enables efficient integration of affinity ligands into the hydrogel matrix, enhancing the selective capture of growth factors and allowing precise temporal control over their release, making them well‐suited as adaptive ...

Tumor‐tropic human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were used as delivery vehicles for magnetotheranostic gold–iron oxide nanoflowers. Magnetic particle imaging of the iron component demonstrated widespread intratumoral distribution and sustained retention in contrast to injection of naked nanoflowers.

Biochemical Marker for Menkes Disease
Plasma and CSF levels of catechols in 10 patients with Menkes disease, ranging in age from 9 days to 27 months, were compared with control groups and patients with congenital absence of dopamine-B-hydroxylase (DBH) at the National Institutes of Health ...

Proteins, Processing, and Properties of Adhesive Fluid Condensates Purified from Mussels
Mussels exhibit an unmatched proficiency for adhering to wet surfaces in salty environments—a remarkable ability that could inspire new biomedical and technical glues. The fluid protein condensates used to form the underwater mussel glue are extracted, reconstituted and characterized with advanced spectroscopy and nanomechanical analysis, revealing ...

Adsorption mechanism and valency of catechol-functionalized hyperbranched polyglycerols
Nature often serves as a model system for developing new adhesives. In aqueous environments, mussel-inspired adhesives are promising candidates. Understanding the mechanism of the extraordinarily strong adhesive bonds of the catechol group will likely ...

A high-capacity catechol-based cathode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries
Using facile acetylene trimerization as a key step, six catechols were congregated on one benzene core to develop a star-shaped redox-active molecule, namely, 3',4',5',6'-tetrakis(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-[1,1':2',1”-terphenyl]-3,3”,4,4”-tetraol, which was ...
