Effects of Ti6Al4V Surfaces Manufactured through Precision Centrifugal Casting and Modified by Calcium and Phosphorus Ion Implantation on Human Osteoblasts

open access: yesMetals, 2020
(1) In order to enable a more widespread use of uncemented titanium-based endoprostheses to replace cobalt-containing cemented endoprostheses for joint replacement, it is essential to achieve optimal osseointegrative properties and develop economic ...

Origin of yield stress and mechanical plasticity in model biological tissues [PDF]

open access: yes
During development and under normal physiological conditions, biological tissues are continuously subjected to substantial mechanical stresses. In response to large deformations cells in a tissue must undergo multicellular rearrangements in order to maintain integrity and robustness.

Nitric oxide modulates expression of extracellular matrix genes linked to fibrosis in kidney mesangial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Mesangial cells are thought to be important mediators of glomerular inflammation and fibrosis. Studies have established a direct role for nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of gene expression in mesangial cells.

miRNA‐29 regulates epidermal and mesenchymal functions in skin repair

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
miRNA‐29 inhibits cell‐to‐cell and cell‐to‐matrix adhesion by silencing mRNA targets. Adhesion is controlled by complex interactions between many types of molecules coded by mRNAs. This is crucial for keeping together the layers of the skin and for regenerating the skin after wounding.

Study of Non-Altered Colorectal Tissue by FT-Raman Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
FT-Raman spectroscopy was employed to study (in-vitro) non-altered human colorectal tissues aiming evaluate their spectral differences. The samples were collected from 39 patients, adding 144 spectra. The results enable one estabilish 3 well defined spectroscopic groups of what was consistently checked by statistical (clustering) and biological ...

Connecting continuum poroelasticity with discrete synthetic vascular trees for modeling liver tissue [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Computational simulations have the potential to assist in liver resection surgeries by facilitating surgical planning, optimizing resection strategies, and predicting postoperative outcomes. The modeling of liver tissue across multiple length scales constitutes a significant challenge, primarily due to the multiphysics coupling of mechanical response ...

Spot‐14 and its paralog Spot‐14R regulate expression of metabolic and thermogenic pathway genes in murine brown and beige adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Spot‐14 and Spot‐14R play distinct roles in regulating metabolism in brown and beige adipocytes. While both influence lipid and glucose pathways, Spot‐14 uniquely controls thermogenic gene expression. This dual regulation balances energy storage and heat production, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for obesity and metabolic disorders. Spot 14
