Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

An Unusual Case of Chronic Relapsing Tetanus Associated with Mandibular Osteomyelitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A 55-year-old man underwent radiation therapy due to malignant lymphoma of the neck. Eight years after the therapy he developed tetanus. It appears that the radiation therapy resulted in mandibular necrosis, and that this lesion may have been the ...

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Adaptive plasticity in the mouse mandible

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2014
Plasticity, i.e. non-heritable morphological variation, enables organisms to modify the shape of their skeletal tissues in response to varying environmental stimuli. Plastic variation may also allow individuals to survive in the face of new environmental

Multiscale 3D Whole Joint Cellular and Molecular Mapping Reveals Disease‐Specific Neurovascular Plasticity Underlying the Structure‐Pain Relationship

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents MUSIC, a novel immunostaining and clearing method coupled with large‐field light sheet microscopy, enabling 3D high‐resolution cellular and molecular mapping of intact musculoskeletal joints across species and joint types. Using joint degenerative and injury models, disease‐specific neurovascular alterations are uncovered, revealing

Ionic–Bionic Interfaces: Advancing Iontronic Strategies for Bioelectronic Sensing and Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ionic–bionic interfaces for bioelectronics leverage ions as multifunctional mediators that combine mechanical compliance, ionic and electronic functionalities, and therapeutic effects. These systems offer real‐time biosignal transduction, effective wound dressing, responsive drug delivery, and seamless interaction between soft tissues and electronic ...

Morphological evolution of the mammalian jaw adductor complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The evolution of the mammalian jaw during the transition from non-mammalian synapsids to crown mammals is a key event in vertebrate history and characterised by the gradual reduction of its individual bones into a single element and the concomitant ...

Osteoclast‐Derived SLIT3 Mediates Osteoarthritis Pain and Degenerative Changes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In TMJ‐OA, osteoclasts play a significant role in promoting the growth of sensory nerves at the osteochondral interface. In early OA, TRAP+ osteoclast‐derived SLIT3 induces sensory nerve growth into the condylar cartilage. This nerve growth facilitates the development of pain associated with OA.
