Electrochemically Produced pH Change Triggering Doxorubicin Release from Cystamine Cross‐Linked Microgels Covalently Immobilized on the Gold Interface

ChemElectroChem
Herein, the usage of polyacrylic acid (AA) based and N,N′‐bis(acryloyl)cystamine (BAC) cross‐linked microgel (AA‐BAC) as a doxorubicin (DOX) carrier and stimuli‐responsive material for the controllable drug release is described.

High-Internal-Phase Pickering Emulsions Stabilized Solely by Peanut-Protein-Isolate Microgel Particles with Multiple Potential Applications.

Angewandte Chemie, 2018
High-internal-phase Pickering emulsions have various applications in materials science. However, the biocompatibility and biodegradability of inorganic or synthetic stabilizers limit their applications.

Conjugate microgel-stabilized Pickering emulsions: Role in delaying gastric digestion

Food Hydrocolloids, 2020
In this study, a new class of microgels called ‘conjugate microgels’ was designed, where whey protein isolate (WPI) was conjugated with dextran (Dx, 500 kDa) (WPI-Dx) via Maillard reaction before fabricating the microgel particles.

Mineral Deposition From Liquid Precursors Triggered by Complementary Polyelectrolytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polyelectrolyte additives can delay or prevent crystal nucleation in supersaturated solutions of insoluble mineral salts such as calcium carbonate. This work reports that adding a second, oppositely‐charged polyelectrolyte leads to immediate mineral crystallization from such metastable solutions.

Flash Assembloids: A Rapid Biofabrication of a Platform for Modeling Early Glioblastoma Invasion at the Glioblastoma–Brain Organoid Interfaces

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a bioengineered assembloid (ASM) system combining glioblastoma (GBM) cells in oxidized alginate (OA) microgels with dorsal organoids (DOs). This model simulates brain tumor‐host interactions, revealing enhanced GBM invasion, altered gene expression, and aggressive infiltration patterns, demonstrating ASM as a valuable platform for ...

Multidimensional Cellular Micro‐Compartments to Model Invasive Lobular Carcinoma Dormancy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is an understudied subtype of breast cancer that is susceptible to late recurrences. In this study, micro‐compartmentalization techniques spanning multiple dimensions, including 2D, pseudo‐3D, and 3D, are integrated to uncover the mechanisms underlying ILC dormancy, revealing the central role of p27Kip1.
