A Daple-Akt feed-forward loop enhances noncanonical Wnt signals by compartmentalizing β-catenin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cellular proliferation is antagonistically regulated by canonical and noncanonical Wnt signals; their dysbalance triggers cancers. We previously showed that a multimodular signal transducer, Daple, enhances PI3-K→Akt signals within the noncanonical Wnt ...

Beyond Bioactive Glass Composition: Using Morphology to Improve in Vitro and in Vivo Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bioactive glasses can easily be shaped into granules, spheres, discs, fibers, or three‐dimensional scaffolds. The resulting morphology not only affects handling properties; it has a direct influence on various glass properties, including results of acellular immersion experiments or in vitro studies with cells or bacteria, but also on in vivo ...

An Ultra‐Flexible Neural Electrode with Bioelectromechanical Compatibility and Brain Micromotion Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Neural electrodes face a mechanical mismatch with brain tissue. This study proposes a bioelectromechanical coupling strategy using an ultra‐flexible electrode designed for synchronized motion. Optimized to match brain tissue stiffness, it achieves dual signal acquisition and micromotion sensing, with characterized interfacial forces and piezoresistive ...
