C1q acts in the tumour microenvironment as a cancer-promoting factor independently of complement activation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
C1q is known to initiate the activation of the complement classical pathway. Here, the authors show the C1q is expressed in the tumour microenvironment and can promote cancer cell migration and adhesion in a complement activation-independent manner.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Additive‐Driven Phase Control for Stable and Efficient CsPbI₃ Solar Cells Via Ambient Low‐Temperature Processing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
CsPbI₃ perovskite solar cells face stability issues due to high annealing temperatures and moisture. Butylammonium acetate (BAAc) enables stable phase formation at 160°C in ambient laboratory conditions, enhancing efficiency and stability, achieving 18.6% PCE, and maintaining over 81% efficiency after 1,000 hours of maximum power point tracking under 1

The Complement System of Agnathans

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Agnathans (lamprey and hagfish) are a group of primitive jawless fish. Jawed vertebrates possess adaptive immunity including immunoglobulins, while agnathans lack immunoglobulins but have alternative adaptive immunity in which variable lymphocyte ...

Anti‐Swelling Textile Power Generator with 1D Nanoscale Channel Alignment in Nanofiber/Graphene Hybrid Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanofiber/graphene hybrid yarn with 1D oriented nanoscale channel is constructed via bath electrospinning followed by a functionalization process, yielding exceptional anti‐swelling and weaving abilities. When configured into a waterproof fabric through series‐parallel connection of 62‐cm yarns, an output power of 31.96 µW is achieved, which could ...
