A Dynamic 3D Human Liver Sinusoid Model for Mechanistic Interrogation of Fontan‐Associated Liver Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a perfusable 3D bioengineered liver sinusoid platform that integrates biofabrication, 3D cell culture, controlled hemodynamics, and multiparametric characterization to model Fontan‐associated liver disease. By decoupling pressure and hypoxia effects, the system reveals early mechanobiological and profibrotic responses under ...

Functional Disorder at the Neural Interface: How Disordered Nanostructures Promote Proper Growth and Differentiation in In Vitro Neural Cultures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work provides a practical guide for neuroengineers to design advanced neural interfaces, embracing and tailoring the concept of functional disorder. By bridging 2D and 3D in vitro models, this work highlights how non‐periodic, spatially heterogeneous, multiscale nanotopography can enable more physiologically relevant platforms for studying neural ...

Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are indispensable for the development of next‐generation bioelectronics, soft robotics, and biomedical devices, where their mechanical properties determine performance and reliability. Among strategies to enhance hydrogel mechanics, phase separation enables controlled heterogeneity resulting in gel networks that are reinforced by ...

Aligned Fibronectin Microenvironment Temporally Facilitates Profibrotic Fibroblast Activation via Integrin α5β1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to a healthy random nanofibrous fibronectin microenvironment, a fibrotic aligned nanofibrous fibronectin microenvironment employs a specific integrin, α5β1 integrin, to activate early pro‐fibrotic fibroblast behaviors and later fibrotic fibroblast tissue formation with cell/F‐actin alignment, α‐SMA expression, and cell‐driven aligned ...

Remote Magnetomechanical Neuromodulation Uncovers Therapeutic Mechanisms for Alleviating Parkinsonian Symptoms in Freely Moving Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetomechanical neuromodulation using magnetic nanodiscs enables remote activation of neurons. In a hemiparkinsonian mouse model, alternating magnetic fields actuate the nanodiscs to generate torque that opens mechanosensitive ion channels within the subthalamic nucleus, thereby modulating basal ganglia motor circuitry.

Sono‐Mechanogenetics: Linking Ultrasound Physics With Cellular Mechanobiology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sono‐mechanogenetics links ultrasound physics with cellular mechanotransduction to enable noninvasive control of engineered biological systems. Acoustic forces generate distinct deformation modes that activate intracellular signaling pathways, which can be coupled to synthetic gene circuits to regulate diverse cellular functions, including gene ...
