Time-of-day effects on muscle mitochondria following short-term ablation of satellite cells
Frontiers in PhysiologyIntroductionEndurance exercise capacity fluctuates by time-of-day due, in part, to molecular clock effects on muscle physiology. As endurance-based exercise relies predominantly on mitochondria for the conversion of cellular energy, fluctuations observed

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this research article, Mansoor and coworkers present a novel device that applies controlled mechanical stimuli to cardiomyocytes using pressure‐driven membrane deformation. By exposing cells to physiologically and pathologically relevant loading conditions, the platform reproduces distinct structural, functional and molecular responses associated ...

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1990 Let f be a k-colouring of a graph G, \(1\leq i\neq j\leq k\), and H a connected component of the subgraph induced in G by \(f^{-1}(i)\cup f^{-1}(j)\). A new k-colouring g of G, which is said to be obtained from f by a k-switching, is defined by \(g(x)=f(x)\), if \(x\not\in H\); \(g(x)=i\), if \(x\in H\) and \(f(x)=j\); \(g(x)=j\), if \(x\in H\) and \(f(

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydrogels are indispensable for the development of next‐generation bioelectronics, soft robotics, and biomedical devices, where their mechanical properties determine performance and reliability. Among strategies to enhance hydrogel mechanics, phase separation enables controlled heterogeneity resulting in gel networks that are reinforced by ...
