Transient growth calculations obtained directly from the Orr-Sommerfeld matrices [PDF]
We introduce and validate an algorithm to compute transient amplication factors for the Orr-Sommerfeld-Squire linear theory for parallel two-phase flow. We further introduce direct numerical simulation as a way of comparing the linear theory with early-stage wave growth in simulations.

Key Trends and Insights in Smart Polymeric Skin Wearable Patches
Intelligent polymers, which respond to various physical and biological stimuli, are explored for the development of skin wearable patches in biomedical applications. Smart polymers, also known as intelligent or stimuli‐responsive polymers, play a crucial role in the development of advanced wearable patches due to their versatility and softness.

On the theoretical prediction of microalgae growth for parallel flow [PDF]
The established microalgae growth models are semi-empirical or considerable fitting coefficients exist currently. Therefore, the ability of the model prediction is reduced by the numerous fitting coefficients. Furthermore, the predicted results of the established models are dependent on the size of the photobioreactor (PBR), light intensity, flow and ...

Insulin-like growth factor-1 in CNS and cerebrovascular aging [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is an important anabolic hormone that decreases with age. In the past two decades, extensive research has determined that the reduction in IGF-1 is an important component of the age-related decline in cognitive ...

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies
An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...

Insulin-like growth factor I is an independent coregulatory modulator of natural killer (NK) cell activity. [PDF]
We aimed to investigate the natural killer (NK) cell activity in hGH-deficient adults and to analyze the effect of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I in uivo and in vitro on NK cell activity.

Probing Receptor Specificity by Sampling the Conformational Space of the Insulin-like Growth Factor II C-domain [PDF]
Insulin and insulin-like growth factors I and II are closely related protein hormones. Their distinct evolution has resulted in different yet overlapping biological functions with insulin becoming a key regulator of metabolism, whereas insulin-like ...
