Notch Signaling Hydrogels Enable Rapid Vascularization and Promote Dental Pulp Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 35, September 18, 2024.
The study introduces a Notch signaling hydrogel designed to enable rapid dental tissue pulp revascularization. This approach orchestrates a proangiogenic microenvironment by inducing specific Notch signaling, promoting angiogenesis, and interacting with Wnt signaling to facilitate odontogenesis for pulp‐dentin complex regeneration.

A Photoredox Thiol‐yne Reaction for the Synthesis of Vinyl Sulfide‐Based Coumarins and its Effect on Fluorescence Properties

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 30, Issue 44, August 6, 2024.
A water‐compatible, photoredox‐based synthesis of fluorescent coumarins, bearing a vinyl sulfide as an electron‐donating group, was developed; subsequently, the photophysical properties of these derivatives were examined. Abstract Coumarins still remain one of the most widely explored fluorescent dyes, with a broad spectrum of applications spanning ...

Development of pH‐Sensitive Film for Detection of Implant Infection via Ultrasound Luminescent Chemical Imaging

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 3, Issue 6, June 2024.
To detect bacterial biofilm induced acidosis on the surface of implanted medical devices, an ultrasound luminescent chemical imaging (ULCI) technique is developed along with a pH‐sensitive device coating. A focused ultrasound beam excites luminescence from mechanoluminescent phosphors in the coating and pH‐sensitive bromothymol blue indicator modulates
