Chronic intestinal immune activation reveals separable impacts of inflammation and barrier loss on hallmarks of ageing.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Inflammaging is considered a driver of age-associated pathology across tissues. Similarly, intestinal permeability is a feature of ageing and underlies a range of inflammatory and age-related diseases. Increased intestinal permeability has been described

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Functional Blood‐Brain Barrier Crossing by Biomimetic M13 Phage Vectors for Targeted Neuronal Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the M13 bacteriophage as a biomimetic nanovector capable of crossing in vitro models of the blood–brain barrier. By exploiting peculiar transcellular pathways, M13 avoids lysosomal degradation and preserves its structural integrity and functionality.

Recapitulating Endochondral Ossification for Bone Repair: From Development to Engineering Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the developmental basis of endochondral ossification (ECO) and its applications in bone tissue engineering (BTE). It first outlines the key biological processes and signaling pathways underlying ECO, then discusses biomaterial‐based engineering strategies derived from these principles, and finally highlights future directions for

Fully Wireless and Flexible Valves for Multiplexed and Prolonged Intravesical Liquid Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A fundamental mechanism for the simultaneous control of multiple magnetic valves is reported in a miniature soft robotic patch for intravesical drug delivery, enabling fully wireless and programmable liquid release. Integrated with a bioadhesive interface and induction‐coupling‐based liquid volume sensing, the soft robotic patch is promising to enable ...

Intestinal Permeability in Dermatitis Herpetiformis

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1988
Differential absorption of D-xylose and 3-0-methyl-D-glucose, and unmediated intestinal permeation (simple diffusion) of lactulose and L-rhamnose, have been investigated in 20 patients with dermatitis herpetiformis. Both iso-osmolar and hyperosmolar test solutions were employed and the results were compared with those obtained from a group of healthy ...

A Versatile Microfluidic Extrusion‐Based Hydrogel Platform for Self‐Organization and Long‐Term Maintenance of Engineered 3D Lymphatic Endothelium

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Microfluidic coaxial extrusion generates size‐controlled 3D lymphatic tubes from primary human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells in a defined four‐component matrix. These engineered vessels self‐organize into stable lymphatic endothelium, maintain selective macromolecular permeability for 30 days, and enable direct comparison with blood endothelial ...

Hyperuricemia drives intestinal barrier dysfunction by regulating gut microbiota

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: Hyperuricemia elevates gut permeability; however, the risk of its influence on the compromised intestinal barrier is poorly understood. Aims: This study was carried out, aiming to elucidate the orchestrators and disruptors of intestinal ...

Intestinal permeability and contractility in murine colitis

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1998
We developed an in vitro organ bath method to measure permeability and contractility simultaneously in murine intestinal segments. To investigate whether permeability and contractility are correlated and influenced by mucosal damage owing to inflammation,
