A Clinical Study of Decellularized Tissue Engineering Hyaline Cartilage Graft (dLhCG) for Articular Cartilage Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current clinical approaches for knee cartilage repair are often limited by hypertrophy and fibrosis in the regenerated tissues. A decellularized tissue‐engineered hyaline cartilage graft (dLhCG), composed of a type II collagen‐based extracellular matrix, has been developed to overcome this limitation.

Biofilm‐Binding Phages Enhance Biofilm Eradication by Synergistic Photothermal and Photodynamic Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered phage‐based trifunctional nanofibers are developed for synergistic biofilm eradication. Biofilm‐binding phages, armed with AuNPs and TCPP, serve as both warheads and scaffolds, endowing the phototherapy agents with biofilm‐anchoring ability. Upon light irradiation, AuNPs induce photothermal therapy, while TCPP generates 1O2 for photodynamic ...

Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

The membrane attack complex

Seminars in Immunopathology, 1984
The “killer molecule” of complement is the membrane attack complex (MAC). It constitutes a supramolecular organization that is composed of approximately 20 protein molecules and has a molecular weight of about 1.7 million. The complex has five precursors, C5, C6, C7, C8, and C9, which are hydrophilic glycoproteins with molecular weights ranging from 70

Membrane permeability to macromolecules mediated by the membrane attack complex

Biochemistry, 1989
A simple and well-defined system of purified phospholipids and human complement proteins was used to study membrane permeability to macromolecules mediated by the membrane attack complex (MAC) of complement. Large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) of phosphatidylcholine (PC) or phosphatidylserine (PS) containing trapped macromolecules [bovine pancreatic ...

The Membrane Attack Complex of Complement

Annual Review of Immunology, 1986
Cell-killing mechanisms are essential components of host defense against infectious agents, parasites, and malignant cells. We distinguish humoral and cellular killing mechanisms. Complement utilizes specific proteins to assemble its killer molecule. Macrophages generate active oxygen radicals that injure target membranes. Lymphocytes, like complement,

Structural Biology of the Membrane Attack Complex

2014
The complement system is an intricate network of serum proteins that mediates humoral innate immunity through an amplification cascade that ultimately leads to recruitment of inflammatory cells or opsonisation or killing of pathogens. One effector arm of this network is the terminal pathway of complement, which leads to the formation of the membrane ...

The membrane attack complex ofXeopus laevis complement

Experientia, 1987
Rabbit erythrocyte membranes lyzed by Xenopus laevis serum exhibited a typical ultrastructural complement lesion with an inner diameter of 80 +/- 9 A. The protein pattern associated with lyzed membrane is compared to a similar human preparation.
