Autonomous Cargo Transport with Biohybrid Microswimmers Enabled by Light‐Mediated Bacteria‐Cargo Communication

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biohybrid microswimmers, which integrate the unique mobility and taxis of living cells with the versatility of synthetic cargo, offer exciting opportunities for targeted delivery. However, current biohybrids lack autonomous decision‐making capabilities due to the absence of communication between living and synthetic components. Here, we report

Role of Oxidants in Interstitial Lung Diseases: Pneumoconioses, Constrictive Bronchiolitis, and Chronic Tropical Pulmonary Eosinophilia

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2011
Oxidants such as superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, and myeloperoxidase from activated inflammatory cells in the lower respiratory tract contribute to inflammation and injury. Etiologic agents include inorganic particulates such as asbestos, silica, or

From lymphatic endothelial cell migration to formation of tubular lymphatic vascular network

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
During development, lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC) progenitors differentiate from venous endothelial cells only in limited regions of the body. Thus, LEC migration and subsequent tube formation are essential processes for the development of tubular ...

Feeding ducks, bacterial chemotaxis, and the Gini index

open access: yes, 2015
Classic experiments on the distribution of ducks around separated food sources found consistency with the `ideal free' distribution in which the local population is proportional to the local supply rate.

High‐Throughput 3D Matrigel‐based Droplet Microfluidics for Single‐Cell Function‐to‐Omics Analysis of Cytotoxic Immune Cells in Solid Tumor Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A 3D Matrigel‐based droplet microfluidics platform that allows physiologically relevant analysis of single immune‐tumor interactions in solid tumors. By integrating real‐time functional imaging with fluorescence‐activated droplet sorting and RNA sequencing, the system links immune cytotoxic behavior to transcriptomic profiles, providing a scalable ...

Heterogeneous chemotactic response of eosinophils in patients with bronchial asthma: Its association with disease severity

open access: yesAllergology International, 1997
We examined the chemotactic response of eosinophils to five eosinophil chemotactic factors (ECF; ECF-PI5, −PI6, −PI7, −PI8 and -PI9) from an established T cell line (ST02) in 31 patients with bronchial asthma (BA).

A Chemotactic Factor for Mononuclear Leukocytes

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1971
SummaryChemotactic activity for mononuclear leukocytes was produced when highly purified guinea pig C5 was cleaved by trypsin or by the earlier acting complement components. This chemotactic activity was mediated by C5a, a fragmentation product of the fifth component of complement.

Differentiated cell behavior: a multiscale approach using measure theory

open access: yes, 2014
This paper deals with the derivation of a collective model of cell populations out of an individual-based description of the underlying physical particle system.

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Chemotactic factor produced by Candida albicans [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1977
Candida albicans was found to produce a substance that was chemotactically active for guinea pig polymorphonuclear neutrophils. The chemotactic factor was detected in culture filtrates of organisms grown under aeration and incubated at 37 degrees C for at least 12 h.
