Vorticity‐Facilitated Platelet Aggregation: a High Expansion‐Ratio Stenotic Microfluidic Platform Unravels the Role of Complex Flow Dynamics in Arterial Thrombosis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals how vorticity—a swirling flow pattern—enhances platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in high‐shear conditions. Using a custom microfluidic model, it is shows that vorticity promotes vWF–GPIbα interactions and calcium signaling, providing new insights into thrombosis mechanobiology and informing safer blood‐contacting medical ...

Dendrimer Conjugates with PD‐L1‐Binding Peptides Enhance In Vivo Antitumor Immune Response

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this paper, a novel nanoparticle scaffold composed of dendrimers conjugated with peptide‐based immune checkpoint inhibitors, enhancing drug delivery efficacy is introduced. By conjugating PD‐L1‐binding peptides to dendrimers, multivalent binding effects are harnessed, resulting in enhanced binding affinity, prolonged half‐life, and improved ...

Decoding Hydrogel Porosity: Advancing the Structural Analysis of Hydrogels for Biomedical Applications

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Porosity governs transport mechanics in hydrogels, yet characterization in its native state remains challenging. This work harnesses particle tracking to uncover three‐dimensional pore geometric features in polyethylene glycol hydrogels. Measurements in the native state reveal pores characteristics are comparable to those obtained by cryogenic scanning

Effect of Nanoparticle Rigidity on the Interaction of Stromal Membrane Particles with Leukemia Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Cell membrane nanoparticles made with stromal cells are prepared and used to target leukemia cells. Deposition of the cell membrane onto rigid silica cores leads to increased uptake both in leukemia cell lines and primary cells from patients. These results show that nanoparticle rigidity affects the interaction between cell membrane nanoparticles and ...
