Hair Follicle Seedling Cryomicroneedles from Hierarchical Microfluidic Organoid on a Chip
Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this paper, a hierarchical microfluidic chip is developed to produce uniform hair follicle organoids (HFOs) in cryomicroneedles. Cryopreservation agents encapsulate HFOs, preserving viability and hair growth potential. The cryomicroneedles enable simple intradermal transplantation with good skin penetration.

Production of pili, hemolysin and siderophores in the urinary isolates of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2013 Introduction. Escherichia coli (E. coli) are the most frequent cause of the urinary tract infections. Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) produce virulence factors which enable them to survive in the urinary tract and cause an infection. Objective.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...

Human Urine Decreases Function and Expression of Type 1 Pili in Uropathogenic
mBio, 2015 Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the primary cause of community-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs). UPEC bind the bladder using type 1 pili, encoded by the fim operon in nearly all E. coli.
