The polygenic nature of telomere length and the anti-ageing properties of lithium

Neuropsychopharmacology, 2018
Telomere length is a promising biomarker for age-related disease and a potential anti-ageing drug target. Here, we study the genetic architecture of telomere length and the repositioning potential of lithium as an anti-ageing medication.

Microscale Tin–Bismuth Alloy Prepared via Cooling Rate Control as Anode Material for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
To investigate the mechanisms about the enhanced buffering effect and morphological retention in fully lithiated Sn–Bi alloys, this study introduces a new bulk bimetallic Sn–Bi alloy with fine grains of uniformly distributed Sn and Bi alloys (≈50 nm) via cooling rate control. This design effectively relieves internal energy buildup and suppresses crack

Generalizing Gelatin Methacryloyl Granular Hydrogel Fabrication Using Stable Microgels with Predictable Stiffness

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) granular hydrogel scaffolds (GHS) are fabricated using a generalized two‐step photocrosslinking approach to yield stable (non‐dissolving) microgels suitable for in situ covalent assembly under physiological conditions. A phase diagram is developed to define the interplay between individual microgel stability and scaffold ...

A Low-Therapeutic Dose of Lithium Inhibits GSK3 and Enhances Myoblast Fusion in C2C12 Cells

Cells, 2019
Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) slows myogenic differentiation and myoblast fusion partly by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Lithium, a common medication for bipolar disorder, inhibits GSK3 via Mg+ competition and increased Ser21 (GSK3α)
