Bone mineral density and bone remodeling markers in chronic low back pain patients with active discopathy: A case-control exploratory study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
OBJECTIVE:We aimed to compare bone mineral density (BMD) and bone remodeling markers in chronic low back pain (cLBP) patients with and without active discopathy (Modic 1 changes). DESIGN:We conducted a single center case-control exploratory study. For 18

Provenance information recorded by mineral inclusions in detrital garnet [PDF]

open access: yesSedimentary Geology, 2018
Garnet single-grain analysis is an often used and well established tool in sedimentary provenance studies, especially when metamorphic source rocks are involved. So far, however, solely the geochemical composition of detrital garnets is considered to draw conclusions concerning probable source rocks.

Using a Supramolecular Approach to Engineer Modular Hydrogel Platforms for Culturing Protoplasts – from General Tissue Engineering to Cellular Agriculture

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Using supramolecular monomers, various hydrogel culture systems were formulated to culture protoplasts; including 2D, 2.5D, and 3D hydrogels. Depending on the culture platform, bioactive functionalization led to protoplast enlargement (2D and 2.5D) or plasmolysis (3D). This work shows the potential to modularly engineer synthetic platforms for cellular

Natural evidence for garnet-spinel transition (GST) in the Earth's mantle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This study based on compiled world-wide garnet peridotite data confirms the GST in high P and T conditions, which was obtained from Al-free experimental system (MgO-Cr~2~O~3~-SiO~2~) by Klemme (2004). A new spinel-phase peridotite zone, garnet peridotite

Novel Biologically Active Glass Fiber Functionalized Using Magnesium Phosphate Cement Promotes Bone and Vascular Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
In this study, a new type of bioactive glass fiber ‐based composite magnesium phosphate bone cement is prepared and verified that its mechanical strength and biological properties. In addition, the cement may have played a biologically active role in the Notch and HIF signaling pathways.

Gangue mineral textures and fluid inclusion characteristics of the Santa Margarita Vein in the Guanajuato Mining District, Mexico

open access: yes, 2012
Successful exploration for mineral deposits requires tools that the explorationist can use to distinguish between targets with high potential for mineralization and those with lower economic potential.

Retentivity of CO2 in fluid inclusions in mantle minerals

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mineralogy, 2011
To assess the capacity of fluid inclusions in mantle minerals for CO 2 retention, annealing experiments were conducted for two mantle xenoliths with CO 2 inclusions for 8 days at 1000 °C under atmospheric pressure and f O 2 of 10 −11 MPa. The results show no marked decrease in the CO 2 density of the CO 2 inclusions for any examined minerals ...

Early diagenetic vivianite [Fe-3(PO4)(2) center dot 8H(2)O] in a contaminated freshwater sediment and insights into zinc uptake: a mu-EXAFS, mu-XANES and Raman study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The sediments in the Salford Quays, a heavily-modified urban water body, contain high levels of organic matter, Fe, Zn and nutrients as a result of past contaminant inputs.

Modelling Atherosclerotic Plaque Cap Mechanics: Microcalcifications Reduce Mechanical Properties in Mesenchymal Stromal Cell‐Based Model

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study develops a tissue‐engineered model of the atherosclerotic cap using human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). After 2 weeks of culture to produce a collagenous matrix, a mineralizing medium induces microcalcifications over 4 weeks. These constructs, imaged with second harmonic generation microscopy, lead to reduced ultimate stress at rupture ...
