Microtubule Depolymerization and Tau Phosphorylation

open access: yesJournal of Alzheimer's Disease, 2013
Inge Grundke-Iqbal and Khalid Iqbal found a connection between microtubule associated tau and Alzheimer's disease. They described that abnormally phosphorylated tau is a component of the paired helical filaments found in the disease. Afterwards they described that tau hyperphosphorylation prevents microtubule assembly.

Multifunctional Bio‐Based Packaging for Perishable Foods: Structural Design, Scalable Fabrication, and Versatile Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An overview of design principles and scalable fabrication strategies for multifunctional bio‐based packaging. Radiative cooling films, modified‐atmosphere films/membranes, active antimicrobial/antioxidant platforms, intelligent optical/electrochemical labels, and superhydrophobic surfaces are co‐engineered from material chemistry to mesoscale structure

Actuation of Cell Layers in Three Dimensions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The alignment of fibers and cells in living tissues affect their mechanical properties and functionality. In this context, one can draw an analogy between tissues and nematic liquid crystal elastomers. We explore this analogy by growing fibroblasts on 2D‐patterned substrates and observing the contraction of cell sheets upon detachment from the

Estudo cinético da reação heterogênea de despolimerização do PET pós-consumo em meio alcalino: influência da velocidade de agitação Kinetics study of the heterogeneous depolymerization of waste PET in alkaline medium: stirring rate effect

open access: yesPolímeros, 2006
Existe grande preocupação ambiental e econômica quanto à reutilização dos materiais poliméricos pós-consumo, devido ao grande volume de descarte destes nos lixos urbanos e ao valor agregado que esses materiais apresentam.

Sea Urchin‐Inspired Immuno‐Instructive Ionic Flow Drives MSCs‐Macrophage Communication to Promote Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bone tissue regeneration is a complex physiological process dependent on the spatiotemporal coordination of immune cells and stem cells. Conventional research primarily elucidates the mechanism through which materials facilitate bone formation by initially modulating macrophages and subsequently encouraging the osteogenic differentiation of ...

Normal-hexane treatment on PET-based waste fiber depolymerization process

open access: yese-Polymers
The global increase in polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-based waste fiber poses a persistent environmental risk. While efforts have been made to repurpose waste fibers into bags, clothing, and building materials, the depolymerization process to extract ...

Programmable Etherified‐Starch Networks Enable Tunable Humidity‐Responsive Soft Actuators for Smart Textiles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Programmable etherified‐starch networks enable humidity‐responsive soft actuators with tunable and reversible deformation. By tailoring crosslinking density and structural design, rapid response, controllable actuation, and long‐term stability are achieved.

Collective cargo hauling by a bundle of parallel microtubules: bi-directional motion caused by load-dependent polymerization and depolymerization

open access: yes, 2015
A microtubule (MT) is a hollow tube of approximately 25 nm diameter. The two ends of the tube are dissimilar and are designated as `plus' and `minus' ends. Motivated by the collective push and pull exerted by a bundle of MTs during chromosome segregation

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation. Kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.

Shaping Carbon Nitrides for Advanced Macrostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review examines how carbon nitride can be shaped through a range of printing and interfacial assembly methods. By bringing together additive manufacturing and liquid–liquid structuring concepts, carbon nitride is moving beyond its traditional powder‐based photocatalyst form toward digitally designed robust macroscale architectures with high design
