Advanced Science, EarlyView.We demonstrate the covalent bonds strategy to enhance the mechanical property of PBIA fiber by using interfacial MXene‐NH2 nanosheets. The MXene‐NH2 nanosheets with reactive amino sites that can serve as nucleating agents and chain anchors to enhance orientation, crystallinity and interchain interaction of PBIA fiber via strong interfacial amido ...

Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Extracellular matrices contain fibril-like polymers often organized in parallel arrays. Although their role in morphogenesis has been long recognized, it remains unclear how the subcellular control of fibril synthesis translates into organ shape.

The structure of the α-keratin microfibril
Bioscience Reports, 1983 Quantitative measurements of the intensity of the meridional reflections in the X-ray-diffraction pattern of α-keratin are shown to be consistent with a microfibril structure in which a surface lattice with an axially projected period around 200 Å is subject to a periodic interruption with an axially projected period of 470 Å. Taken in conjunction with

Unraveling Cellulose Microfibrils: A Twisted Tale [PDF]
Biopolymers, 2013 ABSTRACTMolecular dynamics (MD) simulations of cellulose microfibrils are pertinent to the paper, textile, and biofuels industries for their unique capacity to characterize dynamic behavior and atomic‐level interactions with solvent molecules and cellulase enzymes.

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

P10.05 REDUCED MOLECULAR FLEXIBILITY IN THE LARGE ARTERIES OF DIABETIC RATS
Artery Research, 2009 In Type 1 and 2 diabetes tissue stiffening is evident from measurements of the gross mechanical properties of the vasculature. In general, pathological glycosylation of extracellular matrix proteins may play an important role in increasing stiffness in ...

Fibrillin-rich microfibrils: Elastic biopolymers of the extracellular matrix
, 2002 Fibrillin-rich microfibrils are evolutionarily ancient macromolecular assemblies of the extracellular matrix. They have unique extensible properties that endow vascular and other tissues with long-range elasticity.
