The unusual microtubule polarity in teleost retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]

, 1988
In cells of the teleost retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), melanin granules disperse into the RPE cells long apical projections in response to light onset, and aggregate toward the base of the RPE cell in response to dark onset.

Normalized Polarization Ratios for the Analysis of Cell Polarity

PLoS ONE, 2014
The quantification and analysis of molecular localization in living cells is increasingly important for elucidating biological pathways, and new methods are rapidly emerging. The quantification of cell polarity has generated much interest recently, and ratiometric analysis of fluorescence microscopy images provides one means to quantify cell polarity ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Rapid Disruption of Dishevelled Activity Uncovers an Intercellular Role in Maintenance of Prickle in Core Planar Polarity Protein Complexes

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Planar polarity, the coordinated polarization of cells in the plane of a tissue, is important for normal tissue development and function. Proteins of the core planar polarity pathway become asymmetrically localized at the junctions between cells

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.

From polarity to pathology: Decoding the role of cell orientation in osteoarthritis

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation
Cell polarity refers to the orientation of tissue and organelles within a cell and the direction of its function. It is one of the most critical characteristics of metazoans. The development, growth, and functional tissue distribution are closely related

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

Development of fluorescence lifetime biosensors for ATP, cAMP, citrate, and glucose using the mTurquoise2-based platform

Cell Reports: Methods
Summary: Single-fluorescent protein (FP)-based FLIM (fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy) biosensors can visualize intracellular processes quantitatively. They require a single wavelength for detection, which facilitates multi-color imaging. However,
