Application of Tannic Acid and Fe3+ Crosslinking-Enhanced Pectin Films for Passion Fruit Preservation

open access: yesFoods, 2023
In this work, the role of tannic acid (TA) and Fe3+ in crosslinking pectin (PE) to enhance its physicochemical properties was investigated. Specifically, PE/TA/Fe3+ composite films were prepared using the solution casting method, and the UV-blocking ...

Exploring Extracellular Matrix Crosslinking as a Therapeutic Approach to Fibrosis

open access: yesCells
The extracellular matrix (ECM) provides structural support for tissues and regulatory signals for resident cells. ECM requires a careful balance between protein accumulation and degradation for homeostasis.

The Effects of Citric Acid Crosslinking on Fabrication and Characterization of Gelatin/Curcumin-Based Electrospun Antioxidant Nanofibers

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Nanofibers, produced through the novel method of electrospinning, have a high ratio of surface area to volume, which allows them to have different optical, electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties than macroscale materials.

Repair of DNA interstrand crosslinks as a mechanism of clinical resistance to melphalan in multiple myeloma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Melphalan is widely used as a preparative agent in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT). Although disease relapse is the major cause of death after a melphalan-conditioned autograft, the mechanism ...

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.

Optical Correction of Keratoconus with a Scleral Gas-Permeable Lenses

open access: yesOftalʹmologiâ, 2019
The optical properties of the cornea are determined by its ability to refract and transmit light. Keratoconus changes cornea’s shape, the surface of the cornea becomes irregular, which leads to a violation of light refraction and the occurrence of ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Tough Materials Through Ionic Interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
This article introduces butyl acrylate-based materials that are toughened with dynamic crosslinkers. These dynamic crosslinkers are salts where both the anion and cation polymerize.
