Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Graves’ Disease [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2003 It was recently suggested that genetic factors could play a major role in the development of Graves' disease (GD). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of the c.721G-->A polymorphism and the c.1405A-->G polymorphism of the intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) gene in subjects with GD compared with that in healthy controls ...

Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Contributes to Ischemia- and Reperfusion-Induced Endothelial Activation in Isolated Hearts [PDF]
, 1999 During myocardial reperfusion, polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) adhesion involving the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) may lead to aggravation and prolongation of reperfusion injury.

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in patients with peripheral arterial disease does not affect circulating monocyte subpopulations [PDF]
, 2016 Monocytes are mononuclear cells characterized by distinct morphology and expression of CD14 and CD16 surface receptors. Classical, quiescent monocytes are positive for CD14 (lipopolysaccharide receptor) but do not express Fc gamma receptor III (CD16 ...

Mechanoregulatory Effects of Cell‐Scale Microwells on Epithelial Cell Phenotype
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In small polycaprolactone microwells, A549 epithelial cells span well edges, in contrast to cells growing on flat substrates. Focal adhesion sites (yellow) concentrate at topographic boundaries, while cytoskeletal tension (magenta stress fibers) is transmitted to the nucleus (blue), reducing nuclear sphericity.
