Advances in Microfluidic Cochlea‐On‐A‐Chip
This review systematically examines diverse cell sources for inner ear organoids and outlines stepwise induction protocols. Furthermore, it discusses current applications and prospective developments of cochlea‐on‐a‐chip technologies in areas such as deafness modeling, mechanistic studies, and drug evaluation, with particular focus on gene‐therapy drug

Microfluidics Development at Berkeley [PDF]
Richard A. Mathies is professor emeritus of Chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley. In this contribution he summarizes his journey through microfluidics over the past 30 years from the invention of Capillary Array Electrophoresis in the 1990s to recent attempts to launch a microfluidic system into space.

Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation
At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.

Polyelectrolytes in electric fields: Measuring the dynamical effective charge and effective friction [PDF]
We use a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model to study the electrophoretic behaviour of flexible polyelectrolyte chains. We first characterize the static properties of the model with respect to the chain length, the polyelectrolyte concentration, additional salt and the influence of an applied external field.

GABP Promotes Mesangial Cell Proliferation and Renal Fibrosis Through GLI1 in Diabetic Nephropathy
GABP is found to promote mesangial cell proliferation and ECM deposition through GLI1, while inhibiting GABP or GLI1 prevents the progression of DN by reducing ECM and fibrosis. The research results indicate that a potential therapeutic approach based on inhibiting mesangial cell proliferation and ECM accumulation can effectively treat DN, while GABP ...

Awkt: A Physicochemical Parameter Estimation Tool for Capillary Zone Electrophoresis [PDF]
We present a computational parameter estimation tool aimed at assisting molecule characterization applying nonlinear least-squares optimization to a specific closed-form solution of a capillary electrophoretic transport problem. Numerical estimates for the respective physicochemical parameters are generated.

AAVR Expression is Essential for AAV Vector Transduction in Sensory Hair Cells
Decreased sensitivity to AAV vector transduction in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of adult mice is primarily attributed to reduction of AAVR (Kiaa0319l; Au040320). Knockout of AAVR reduces AAV vector transduction efficiency in both inner hair cells (IHCs) and OHCs in neonatal mice.

Sweat chloride quantification using capillary electrophoresis
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the less rare and severe genetic disease among the European population. Biochemical diagnosis of CF is based on the demonstration of increased chloride concentration in sweat samples, obtained during the sweat test (ST)
