Post‐recanalization administration of rapamycin improves functional outcome and reduces infarct size in a rat model of ischemic stroke

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Experimental design and main findings of the study. Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced for 90 min in rats, followed by intravenous administration of rapamycin or vehicle at the time of recanalization. Functional outcome (Garcia scale and adhesive removal test), magnetic resonance imaging‐based infarct volume assessment, and cerebral

The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...
