Bioengineered Models of Nerve Regeneration
Bioengineered nerve regeneration platforms ranging from patterned cell cultures and hydrogels to fibrous scaffolds and microfluidic systems are reviewed, highlighting the complex cellular and biochemical environments essential for nerve repair. Challenges associated with these platforms, such as balancing complexity with throughput and the need for ...

Possible origins of macroscopic left-right asymmetry in organisms
I consider the microscopic mechanisms by which a particular left-right (L/R) asymmetry is generated at the organism level from the microscopic handedness of cytoskeletal molecules.

Chromosomal Deficiencies and the Embryonic Development of Drosophila Melanogaster [PDF]
Chromosome aberrations have marked effects upon the development of an organism. Many such aberrations are lethal. In Drosophila this is particularly true of chromosomal deficiencies, as first described by Bridges [2]. A more detailed study of the effects

Polarization Management on Anisotropic Thin‐Film Lithium Niobate Platform
This review focuses on x‐cut thin‐film lithium niobate (TFLN), exploring strategies to mitigate anisotropy and mode hybridization. It covers polarization beam splitters, rotators, splitter‐rotators, polarizers, and polarization‐insensitive components. Key applications include polarization‐division multiplexing, polarization‐insensitive modulation, and ...

Ect2/Pbl Acts via Rho and Polarity Proteins to Direct the Assembly of an Isotropic Actomyosin Cortex upon Mitotic Entry. [PDF]
Entry into mitosis is accompanied by profound changes in cortical actomyosin organization. Here, we delineate a pathway downstream of the RhoGEF Pbl/Ect2 that directs this process in a model epithelium.

Apoptotic Bodies Restore NAD and Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Fibroblasts
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived apoptotic bodies (MSC‐ABs) target keloid fibroblasts (KFs), restoring nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) metabolism and mitochondrial function, suppressing collagen overproduction, and rebalancing tissue homeostasis, offering a novel therapy for keloid.

The septin cytoskeleton facilitates membrane retraction during motility and blebbing. [PDF]
Increasing evidence supports a critical role for the septin cytoskeleton at the plasma membrane during physiological processes including motility, formation of dendritic spines or cilia, and phagocytosis.

The Molecular Basis of Amino Acids Sensing
Amino acids are essential as protein building blocks and signaling molecules, enabling metabolic regulation. Cells sense amino acid levels to control protein synthesis, maintain homeostasis, and adapt to nutritional changes. This review explores recent advances in amino acid sensing mechanisms across organisms, highlighting their roles in cellular ...

The premature aging‐related progerin leads to defective nuclear morphology and is associated with disrupted molecular coupling between the extranuclear cytoskeleton and lamin‐associated nuclear envelope. It is discovered that progerin expression reduces nuclear tension, forms nuclear wrinkling, and enhances chromatin dynamics, thereby regulating ...
