Different pathways involved in the stimulatory effects of homocysteine on rat duodenal smooth muscle
Recent studies have confirmed that hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with gastrointestinal diseases; however, the direct effect of homocysteine on gastrointestinal reactivity still remains unknown.

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

BackgroundPigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF), which belongs to the noninhibitory serpin family, has shown the ability to stimulate several physiological processes, such as antiangiogenesis, anti‐inflammation, and antioxidation. In the present study,

Using a bottom‐up approach, we engineered a human neuromuscular microchip to investigate distinct adaptive responses to neural stimulation and metabolic stress. Further integration of endothelial cells revealed their critical role in modulating neuromuscular excitability, establishing a comprehensive neurovascular‐muscular model.

Assembly and positioning of actomyosin rings by contractility and planar cell polarity
The actomyosin cytoskeleton is a primary force-generating mechanism in morphogenesis, thus a robust spatial control of cytoskeletal positioning is essential.

Contribution of myocardial contractility to myocardial perfusion
Myocardial contractility in open-chest anesthetized (sodium pentobarbital) dogs was varied while ventricular pressure, coronary perfusion pressure, and coronary tone were held constant.

We introduce a novel method combining microfluidics, optogenetics, and human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology to encapsulate single iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC‐CMs) in an optimal environment for functional characterization. This method enables direct genotype‐phenotype correlation for genetic studies and high‐throughput screening ...

Effects of neuropeptide Y on electrical activity and myocardial contractility
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and agonist Leu(31)Pro(34)NPY were used to determine the type of NPY receptors involved in electrical activity and myocardial contraction.
