Hydrogel Adhesive Integrated‐Microstructured Electrodes for Cuff‐Free, Less‐Invasive, and Stable Interface for Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a cuff‐free, less‐invasive surgical approach for vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) by combining ultrathin Y‐shaped kirigami electrodes is developed with a chemically cross‐linked hydrogel adhesive (hydrogel‐kirigami). Unlike conventional cuff implantation, which may damage nerves and nearby critical vessels, this new technique minimizes ...

Biomimetic Glycosaminoglycan‐Analog Hydrogel for Improved Embolization of Aneurysms: Environment‐Selective Swelling

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic glycosaminoglycan analog hydrogels exhibit suitable and robust mechanical properties, as well as hemocompatibility and biocompatibility, making them ideal for the embolization of intracranial aneurysms. Notably, the hydrogel's environment‐selective swelling properties enable complete blockage of the aneurysm cavity while preventing ...

Motor‐Free Soft Robots for Cancer Detection, Surgery, and In Situ Bioprinting

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Novel motor‐free soft robots for cancer detection, surgery, and in situ bioprinting–are presented. This master‐slave system is constructed from soft fibrous syringe architectures, removing the need for electrical motors and complex control mechanisms, while reducing the physical tremors.

Enhanced PDMS Functionalization for Organ‐on‐a‐Chip Platforms Using Ozone and Sulfo‐SANPAH: A Simple Approach for Biomimetic Long‐Term Cell Cultures

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The use of organ‐on‐a‐chip (OOC) microfluidic platforms is expanding in biomedical research. While this emerging technology is becoming increasingly accessible, the stability of long‐term functional cultures remains a critical challenge to address. This study presents a straightforward, one‐step method for the functionalization of polydimethylsiloxane ...

Short‐Chain Fatty Acids Modulate Anti‐ROR1 CAR T‐Cell Function and Exhaustion in an Intestinal Adenocarcinoma‐on‐Chip Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Short‐chain fatty acids modulate anti‐ROR1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell function in an intestinal adenocarcinoma‐on‐chip model. Butyrate and propionate reduce cytotoxicity, cytokine release, and infiltration by inducing a regulatory T‐cell phenotype and T‐cell exhaustion via histone deacetylase inhibition.
