Tumor growth instability and the onset of invasion
, 2005 Motivated by experimental observations, we develop a mathematical model of chemotactically directed tumor growth. We present an analytical study of the model as well as a numerical one.

Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses: A Powerful Tool in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work is a comprehensive revision of bioactive glasses (BGs), pioneered by Prof. L.L. Hench, which are key in bone repair and regenerative medicine. Sol–gel methods and mesoporous designs enhanced their bioactivity, ions, and drug delivery. BGs now support gene therapy and 3D‐printed scaffolds, enabling personalized, multifunctional treatments in ...

Adaptation kinetics in bacterial chemotaxis [PDF]
, 1983 Cells of Escherichia coli, tethered to glass by a single flagellum, were subjected to constant flow of a medium containing the attractant alpha-methyl-DL-aspartate. The concentration of this chemical was varied with a programmable mixing apparatus over a

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A bone substitute with gentamicin physically precipitated onto the surface of carbonate apatite exhibits prompt drug release, high bactericidal activity, and osteogenic capacity. Efficient antibacterial activity mitigates early postoperative neutrophil accumulation, the status of which may serve as a potential parameter for evaluating the antibacterial

Lupus serum induces inflammatory interaction with neutrophils in human glomerular endothelial cells
Lupus Science and Medicine, 2020 Objectives SLE is associated with endothelial cell dysfunction (ECD). Understanding how ECD leads to neutrophil infiltration into glomeruli is essential to finding therapeutic targets for SLE. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of SLE serum

PLoS Biology, 2016 Chemotaxis is fundamentally important, but the sources of gradients in vivo are rarely well understood. Here, we analyse self-generated chemotaxis, in which cells respond to gradients they have made themselves by breaking down globally available ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Microarchitecture sculpting via phase separation programs hydrogel mechanics by creating globular, inverse globular, and spinodal structures. Spinodal architectures deliver superior toughness and energy dissipation, while ionic modulation through single polymer phase separation offers a simple, scalable route to tune mechanical properties ...

Microbial BiotechnologyBacteria use chemotaxis to move to favourable ecological niches. For many pathogenic bacteria, chemotaxis is required for full virulence, particularly for the initiation of host colonisation. There do not appear to be limits to the type of compounds that

Exosome secretion promotes chemotaxis of cancer cells
Cell Adhesion & Migration, 2017 Migration of cells toward chemical cues, or chemotaxis, is important for many biologic processes such as immune defense, wound healing and cancer metastasis.
