Tuning the Morphological Properties of Granular Hydrogels to Control Lymphatic Capillary Formation
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Tuning the morphological properties of granular hydrogels is essential to generate robust lymphatic capillary networks that express key lymphatic gene and protein markers. The study demonstrates that 3D in vitro lymphatic tube formation is controlled not by the mechanical properties of the gel, but by the pore size and topology (periodicity) of the gel

GelMA/AgNWs Hydrogel Combined with Electrical Stimulation Effectively Promotes Skin Wound Healing
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The doped AgNWs in GelMA hydrogel prevent the wound from being infected and introduce the electrical field into the wound region. COMSOL simulation guides the introduced electric field to be conducive to promoting cell migration and proliferation. Thus, the GelMA/AgNWs hydrogel combined with ES effectively accelerated the healing process of skin wounds.

Aminopeptidases of Germinated and Non-Germinated Barley
Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2009 In processes of barley plant development, various endo- and exopeptidases are involved. To determine the type and number of aminopeptidases that could participate in barley seed germination and tissue growth, their activities in extracts of non-germinated and germinated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Angora) grains and young tissues have been examined,
