Inflammation and Macular Oedema after Pars Plana Vitrectomy
Mediators of Inflammation, 2013 Cystoid macular oedema (CMO) is a major cause of reduced vision following intraocular surgery. Although the aetiology of CMO is not completely clarified, intraocular inflammation is known to play a major role in its development.

Modeling and Simulation of Thermo-Fluid-Electrochemical Ion Flow in Biological Channels [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 In this article we address the study of ion charge transport in the biological channels separating the intra and extracellular regions of a cell. The focus of the investigation is devoted to including thermal driving forces in the well-known velocity-extended Poisson-Nernst-Planck (vPNP) electrodiffusion model.

Epitope Mapping of Anti‐Neurofascin 155 Antibody in a Large Cohort of Autoimmune Nodopathy Patients
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune nodopathy (AN), a newly recognized disease entity, is an immune‐mediated polyneuropathy involving autoantibodies against cell adhesion molecules located in nodes of Ranvier and paranodal regions, such as neurofascin 186 (NF186) and neurofascin 155 (NF155). The present study aimed to identify the epitopes for autoantibodies

Artificial Receptor in Synthetic Cells Performs Transmembrane Activation of Proteolysis
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Transmembrane signaling is the hallmark of living cells and is among the highest challenges for the design of synthetic cells. Herein, an artificial receptor based on the chemistry of self‐immolative linkers is used to communicate information across the lipid bilayer, for transmembrane activation of enzymatic activity. Abstract The design of artificial,

Astrocytic Ion Dynamics: Implications for Potassium Buffering and Liquid Flow [PDF]
M. De Pitt\`a and H. Berry (eds.), Computational Glioscience,
Springer Series in Computational Neuroscience, Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019, 2016 We review modeling of astrocyte ion dynamics with a specific focus on the implications of so-called spatial potassium buffering, where excess potassium in the extracellular space (ECS) is transported away to prevent pathological neural spiking. The recently introduced Kirchoff-Nernst-Planck (KNP) scheme for modeling ion dynamics in astrocytes (and ...

Light‐Triggered Protease‐Mediated Release of Actin‐Bound Cargo from Synthetic Cells
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.TEV Prtoease‐mediated Releasable Actin‐binding Protein (TRAP) is a protein‐based platform consisting of a cargo tightly bound to reconstituted actin networks in synthetic cells which can be proteolyticly released from the bound actin, followed by its secretion through membrane translocation mediated by a cell‐penetrating peptide.
