Exploring Dipolar Dynamics and Ionic Transport in Metal‐Organic Frameworks: Experimental and Theoretical Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, the interplay of dipolar dynamics and ionic charge transport in MOF compounds is investigated. Synthesizing the novel structure CFA‐25 with integrated freely rotating dipolar groups, local and macroscopic effects, including interactions with Cs cations are explored.

Comparing Classical Pathways and Modern Networks: Towards the Development of an Edge Ontology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
Pathways are integral to systems biology. Their classical representation has proven useful but is inconsistent in the meaning assigned to each arrow (or edge) and inadvertently implies the isolation of one pathway from another. Conversely, modern high-throughput experiments give rise to standardized networks facilitating topological calculations ...

Direct Ink Writing of Conductive Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the use of direct ink writing (DIW) for fabricating conductive hydrogels with customizable 3D structures. It outlines the rheological requirements for successful DIW, followed by an exploration of the materials and ink formulations used to impart electronic and/or ionic conductivity to hydrogels while maintaining printability ...

Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Covalent On‐Cell Conjugation of Biomaterials Through Oxidative Phenolic Coupling Regulates Stem Cell Fate via Intracellular Biophysical Programming

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
On‐cell covalent crosslinking of hydrogel matrix to the membrane of a single cell using droplet microfluidics enables mechanotransduction and influences stem cell fate. This newly established approach influences stem cell fate, independent of YAP/TAZ mechanotransduction and non‐covalent reversible binding ligands yet by various intracellular ...

Mesenchymal Stem Cells‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Mimetics as Osteoinductive Mediators for Bone Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived nanoghosts (MSC‐NGs) mimic naturally secreted extracellular vesicles (MSC‐EVs) in structure and physicochemical properties but can be synthesized at more translatable yields. As osteogenic agents, MSC‐NGs demonstrate superior outcomes compared to MSC‐EVs.

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.

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 ...
