Controlling stem cell fate using cold atmospheric plasma [PDF]

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2020
AbstractThe stem cell is the foundation of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Regulating specific stem cell fate, such as cell attachment, proliferation, differentiation, and even death, undergoes continuous development. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP), the core technology of plasma medicine, is attracting tremendous attention due to its ...

DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW DEVICE FOR APPLYING ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE COLD PLASMA ON FOODS

Food and Environment Safety, 2022
The studies on cold plasma, a non-thermal food processing technology, have been recently focused on extending the shelf life of foods and controlling pathogenic microorganisms since its antimicrobial activities were recognized.

Exploring the Use of Cold Atmospheric Plasma to Overcome Drug Resistance in Cancer

Biomedicines, 2023
Drug resistance is a major problem in cancer treatment, as it limits the effectiveness of pharmacological agents and can lead to disease progression. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a technology that uses ionized gas (plasma) to generate reactive oxygen

Cell‐cycle‐specific lesion evolution rather than inhibition of double‐strand‐break repair underpins cisplatin radiosensitization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We analyze cisplatin–DNA adducts (CDAs) and double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell‐cycle‐dependent manner. We find that CDAs form similarly across all cell cycle phases. DSBs arise only in S‐phase. CDAs might not directly impair DSB repair, but S‐phase DSB lesions evolve in the presence of CDAs and disrupt repair in G2, also causing radiosensitization ...

YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.

Cold atmospheric plasma for SARS-CoV-2 inactivation [PDF]

Physics of Fluids, 2020
Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infectious virions are viable on various surfaces (e.g., plastic, metals, and cardboard) for several hours. This presents a transmission cycle for human infection that can be broken by developing new inactivation approaches. We employed an efficient cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) with argon feed gas to inactivate SARS-

Innovative Processing of Compacted Waste Aluminum Alloy Powders via Controlled Remelting and Solidification

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

Application of cold atmospheric plasma for decontamination of toxigenic fungi and mycotoxins: a systematic review

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionMicrobial contamination remains a vital challenge across the food production chain, particularly due to mycotoxins—secondary metabolites produced by several genera of fungi such as Aspergillus, Fusarium, Alternaria, and Penicillium.
