Dehydration affects drug transport over nasal mucosa
Formulations for nasal drug delivery often rely on water sorption to adhere to the mucosa, which also causes a higher water gradient over the tissue and subsequent dehydration.

Hydration phase diagram for sodium cobalt oxide Na0.3CoO2*yH2O [PDF]
The hydration phase diagram for sodium cobalt oxyhydrate, Na0.3CoO2*yH2O (y=0, 0.6, 1.3), was determined as a function of relative humidity at 298K. It is found that greater than 75% relative humidity is needed for complete hydration of anhydrous Na0.3CoO2 to the superconducting phase Na0.3CoO2*1.3H2O.

Light‐Triggered Protease‐Mediated Release of Actin‐Bound Cargo from Synthetic Cells
TEV Prtoease‐mediated Releasable Actin‐binding Protein (TRAP) is a protein‐based platform consisting of a cargo tightly bound to reconstituted actin networks in synthetic cells which can be proteolyticly released from the bound actin, followed by its secretion through membrane translocation mediated by a cell‐penetrating peptide.

Hypoxia promotes the epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells via the SIRT1‐FoxO1‐FoxO3‐autophagy pathway, thereby resulting in the fibrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Activation of SIRT1 or induction of autophagy inhibits this process, alleviating hypoxia‐induced fibrosis.

Interstitial cells and neurons respond to variations in hydration [PDF]
Dehydration and brain interstitial fluid alterations associate to cognitive dysfunction. We now explore whether changes in matrix hydration are a possible common signal for modulation of water-transfer rates and neuron function.

RhoA and Rac1 as Mechanotransduction Mediators in Colorectal Cancer
Analysing RhoA and Rac1 protein levels in Colorectal cancer (CRC) samples under mechanical strain highlights their potential as diagnostic markers. Monitoring their activity could offer valuable insights into how cancer spreads, paving the way for new approaches to better understand and diagnose colorectal cancer.

Toward Design Principles for Biomolecular Condensates for Metabolic Pathways
Biomolecular condensates are membrane‐less compartments found through‐out nature which can serve as reaction crucibles for biochemical processes. This review explores the design strategies underlying how condensates can be used in biotechnology to enhance multistep enzyme cascades including enhancement by mass action and substrate channeling, and ...
