Mucosal correlates of protection after influenza viral challenge of vaccinated and unvaccinated healthy volunteers

mBio
The induction of systemic antibody titers against hemagglutinin has long been the main focus of influenza vaccination strategies, but mucosal immunity has also been shown to play a key role in the protection against respiratory viruses.

Electronics‐Free Visual Monitoring of Dry Eye Disease‐Related Tear Biomarkers Using Smart Scleral Lenses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An electronics‐free smart scleral lens passively monitors dry eye disease‐related tear biomarkers through colorimetric sensing of chloride, pH, and ocular surface temperature. Smartphone‐assisted image analysis enables quantitative interpretation, providing a simple, non‐invasive strategy for ocular health monitoring without integrated electronics ...

Lid-driven cavity flow of viscoelastic liquids

, 2016
The lid-driven cavity flow is a well-known benchmark problem for the validation of new numerical methods and techniques. In experimental and numerical studies with viscoelastic fluids in such lid-driven flows, purely-elastic instabilities have been shown

Niche‐Mediated Neural Priming Enables Robust and Scalable Generation of Human Choroid Plexus Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to E8, mTeSR1 culture downregulated WNT and TGF‑β signaling, and upregulated neural differentiation pathways, enhancing neural priming. Under skin organoid induction conditions, mTeSR1‑cultured hESCs generated organoids with significantly higher neuroepithelial differentiation.

Lid massage and symptoms of dryness in soft contact lens wearers

, 1992
We have compared the efficacy of an in-eye lubricant and lid massage (gently massaging the surface of the lens through the upper lid) in a group of 13 soft lens wearers who regularly suffer from symptoms of dryness.

Single‐Molecule Imaging of Endogenous RNA Using a Miniaturized and Circularly Permuted CRISPR‐Cas13 Degron‐Masking System CDegSR

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CDegSR, a new tool for imaging RNA at single molecule level in living cells was developed by researchers. Background noise was eliminated by protein engineering and making it degrade when not bound to its target. This allowed individual RNA molecules to be clearly imaged and tracked.

Mechanically Robust, Self‐Healable, and Cryotolerant GelMA Hydrogel for Wearable Tactile Sensors with Enhanced Durability, Lifetime, and Environmental Stability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically robust, self‐healable, moisturizing, cryotolerant and adhesive GelMA hydrogel is developed by incorporating polyvinyl alcohol, acrylic acid, sodium tetraborate, and glycerol into GelMA matrix via a photoinitiated polymerization process. The hydrogel‐derived omni‐healable ionotronic pressure sensor can sensitively and consistently monitor

TNAP and PHOSPHO1 Function Synergistically to Afford Critical Control Over the Mineralization of the Postnatal Murine Skeleton

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Biomineralization underpins skeletal development, yet its molecular control remains incompletely understood. Using a novel murine knockout model, this study reveals the essential and complementary roles of PHOSPHO1 and TNAP in postnatal skeletal development.

Flipping your lid

, 2000
For a simple polygon \(P\) a flipturn is a reflection of a pocket \(p\) of the convex hull of \(P\) through the midpoint of the convex hull edge which defines \(p\). There are two questions that arise. How many flipturns are required to convexify any polygon, provided that the flips are chosen to minimize this quantity?
