Monopolar Radiofrequency for Dermal Prejuvenation: Scientific Rationale and Mechanisms of Action
ABSTRACT Objectives To summarize the scientific rationale for the use of the monopolar radiofrequency tissue tightening system (monoRF) for the prevention of dermal aging (termed prejuvenation). Materials and Methods This narrative review summarizes the basic science of dermal aging and monoRF‐induced collagen remodeling and neocollagenesis.

Structure of Cellulose Microfibrils in Primary Cell Walls from Collenchyma1[C][W][OA]
In the primary walls of growing plant cells, the glucose polymer cellulose is assembled into long microfibrils a few nanometers in diameter. The rigidity and orientation of these microfibrils control cell expansion; therefore, cellulose synthesis is a ...

Uncoupling TGFβ1 signalling from collagen protein synthesis in Dupuytren's disease
Abstract Dupuytren's disease is a fibroproliferative disorder of the palmer fascia (PF) characterised by flexion contractures in the hand. Dupuytren's disease can be treated surgically, but disease recurrence rates are high, potentially due to continual production of matrisomal proteins.

Vertex-element models for anisotropic growth of elongated plant organs
New tools are required to address the challenge of relating plant hormone levels, hormone responses, wall biochemistry and wall mechanical properties to organ-scale growth. Current vertex-based models (applied in other contexts) can be unsuitable for

This study aims to optimise the application methods of a biobased suspension of micro/nano cellulose fibrils from agro‐biomass subjected to high‐pressure homogenisation. Two methods were selected, bar coating (BC) and spray coating (SC), and were tested using an LF factorial design with 3 levels and 2 factors.

The 3D formability of paperboard was examined using full and localised microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) coatings in thermoforming, hydroforming and deep drawing, and the results were linked to bulge‐test strain behaviour. Full‐surface fluidised MFC coatings consistently improved strain capacity and 3D formability, achieving performance comparable to ...

ABSTRACT Rationale Hemicelluloses are abundant carbohydrate components in plant cell walls. They play a crucial structural role in binding cellulose microfibrils, in addition to other biological functions. Their high structural variability directly influences their biological properties, making it important to establish a structure–function ...
