An Anti‐Myd88 Peptide Synergistically Enhances the Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Extracellular Vesicles from Naïve Umbilical Cord MSC or HEK293F CD24 Overexpressing Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study confirms that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or HEK293F cells overexpressing CD24 have anti‐inflammatory effects in macrophages and monocytes. Further loading either of these EVs with an anti‐Myd88 peptide synergistically enhanced the anti‐inflammatory effects of the EVs.

Equity in the NHS [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1994
EDITOR, - Margaret Whitehead's picture of health services before the establishment of the NHS reminds us of the dangers of market forces operating in health care.1 She indicates clearly that we are now well along the road to requiring certain sections of the population to pay directly for the consequences of ill health. What causes the greatest concern,

A High‐Throughput AngioPlate Platform with Integrated AngioTEER for Modeling and Monitoring Renal Proximal Tubule Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Renal tubular injury is a major contributor to kidney disease, yet remains poorly understood due to the lack of predictive models. This study presents a high‐throughput 3D renal proximal tubule model on the AngioPlate platform integrated with automated TEER measurements (AngioTEER), enabling real‐time monitoring of drug‐induced nephrotoxicity ...

A Compartmentalized Joint‐on‐chip (JoC) Model to Unravel the Contribution of Cartilage and Synovium to Osteoarthritis Pathogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A compartmentalized joint‐on‐chip (JoC) platform is here developed, modelling the interactions between cartilage and synovium in osteoarthritis (OA). Using independent culture and mechanical/biochemical stimulation, the JoC revealed how inflammation and mechanical damage drive mutual tissue changes.
