Dynamic Enhancer–promoter Communication Beyond Loop Extrusion

Shengwu huaxue yu shengwu wuli jinzhan
Enhancer-promoter communication is fundamental to the spatial and temporal control of gene expression. Cohesin-mediated loop extrusion has long been considered a major structural mechanism that brings distal regulatory elements into proximity with their ...

XTRUDE: A Process‐Informed Framework for High‐Fidelity Analysis of Hydrogel Extrusion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Extrusion performance emerges from the interplay between material properties and processing conditions. XTRUDE (eXTrusion Rheology for Understanding and Defining Extrudability) recreates the extrusion environment with in situ pressure and temperature sensing, enabling characteristic pressure signatures to quantify extrusion‐specific phenomena and ...

An extrinsic motor directs chromatin loop formation by cohesin

The EMBO Journal
The ring-shaped cohesin complex topologically entraps two DNA molecules to establish sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesin also shapes the interphase chromatin landscape with wide-ranging implications for gene regulation, and cohesin is thought to achieve ...

ESCO1 and CTCF enable formation of long chromatin loops by protecting cohesinSTAG1 from WAPL

eLife, 2020
Eukaryotic genomes are folded into loops. It is thought that these are formed by cohesin complexes via extrusion, either until loop expansion is arrested by CTCF or until cohesin is removed from DNA by WAPL.

Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

Macrophage–Fibroblast Crosstalk Governs Tumor Mechanics, as Revealed by Spatiotemporal Force Mapping in 3D Spheroids

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows crosstalk among tumor cells, fibroblasts, and macrophages alters the physical forces inside 3D tumor spheroids. Incorporating deformable microparticles in 3D tumor spheroids, the researchers mapped mechanical stresses spatially and with respect to tumor growth (temporally).

The effect of pressure and temperature variations on the FEM prediction of deformation during extrusion [PDF]

, 2005
The extrusion process is complex, involving interaction between the process variables and the material’s high temperature properties and is typically conducted at relatively high temperatures because the lower flow stress of the material permits larger ...
