Ionizable Lipid‐Dependent Optimization of Steroid Lipid Nanoparticles With Tunable Immunomodulatory Properties

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel engineering strategy that establishes material design principles for incorporating anti‐inflammatory steroids into lipid nanoparticles to reduce LNP‐induced inflammation while retaining mRNA delivery. Results are validated in vitro and in three animal models of inflammation and autoimmunity in vivo.

Ultrathin Hydrogel Membranes Inspired by Soap Films Enable Physiologically Relevant Breathing Lung Models

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A soap‐film inspired strategy enables the fabrication of ultrathin yet robust GelMA‐PAAm membranes for breathing lung culture. The hydrogel membrane supports long‐term cyclic deformation under air‐liquid interface conditions, enabling physiologically relevant breathing motions of engineered lung tissue culture. ABSTRACT Breathing continuously stretches

The Value of Adrenal Androgens for Correcting Cortisol Lateralization in Adrenal Venous Sampling in Patients with Normal Cortisol Secretion

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2019
The management of patients with adrenocorticotropic hormone-independent Cushing’s syndrome and bilateral adrenal masses is challenging. Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) has been used to identify functional lesions in previous studies, but it is not always ...

Conjugated Metal‐Organic Frameworks on Laser‐Induced‐Graphene Scaffold Enable Picomolar Sensitivity in Electrical Biosensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A controlled layer‐by‐layer growth process integrates conjugated metal‐organic framework thin films onto a hierarchical 3D laser‐induced graphene scaffold. When incorporated into an extended‐gate field‐effect transistor configuration, this synergistic hybrid platform achieves robust aptamer immobilization, driving highly selective, picomolar‐level ...

A Method for Assessing Week-Long Cortisol Output Using a Continuously Worn Sweat Patch

Methods and Protocols
Although sample matrices are available for assessing cortisol output over hours/days (serum, saliva, or urine) or months (hair or nails), there is no current method for measuring integrated cortisol output over a period of 1 week.

Electroactive 3D Porous Graphene Foam Impedimetric Biosensor for Ultrasensitive Detection of MCF‐7‐Cells‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Human Serum

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A label‐free impedimetric biosensor based on electroactive 3D porous graphene foam enables ultrasensitive and selective detection of CD81 protein and MCF‐7 cell‐derived extracellular vesicles in human serum. Detection limits of 0.048 fg/mL for CD81 and ∼24 EVs/mL are achieved, demonstrating a robust platform for selective, label‐free, and ...

Cortisol

Les hormones corticoesteroides són essencials per a la regulació d'una gran varietat de processos fisiològics. El cortisol és el principal corticoesteroide en peixos teleostis, amb funcions glucocorticoides i mineralocorticoides. És el principal indicador de la resposta a l'estrès, i la principal hormona en el control de l'osmorregulació en peixos ...

Comparative analysis of salivary cortisol measurements using different assay methods in relation to serum-free cortisol measurement

Practical Laboratory Medicine
Objectives: Salivary cortisol reflects the biologically active form of serum cortisol, offering a noninvasive evaluation method for the diurnal rhythm of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. While liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (
