Stable Protein‐Based G‐Quadruplex‐Derived Supramolecular Bioinks as Tunable ECM‐Mimetic Constructs Assembled by Combining Non‐Covalent and Covalent Strategies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing the synergistic interplay of supramolecular self‐assembly, under macromolecular crowding conditions, and enzymatic‐mediated covalent crosslinking toward a stable protein‐based G‐quadruplex‐derived supramolecular bioink. This bioinspired strategy enables the biofabrication of complex and tunable ECM‐mimetic constructs, providing a platform ...

Adhesive-tape soft lithography for patterning mammalian cells: application to wound-healing assays

BioTechniques, 2012
This paper introduces a benchtop method for patterning mammalian cells—i.e., for culturing cells at specific locations—on planar substrates. Compared with standard cell culture techniques, which do not allow the control of what areas of a monolayer are ...

Acute effects of coffee on skin blood flow and microvascular function

, 2017
Objective Studies on the acute effects of coffee on the microcirculation have shown contradicting results. This study aimed to investigate if intake of caffeine-containing coffee changes blood flow and microvascular reactivity in the skin.

ADAMTS13 and microvascular thrombosis [PDF]

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2006
Interaction between platelet and von Willebrand factor, a circulating adhesive glycoprotein, is essential for hemostasis under the high shear environments of arterioles and capillaries. If unregulated, this interaction may lead to unwarranted platelet thrombosis.

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.
