Incorporating chemical signalling factors into cell-based models of growing epithelial tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we present a comprehensive computational framework within which the effects of chemical signalling factors on growing epithelial tissues can be studied. The method incorporates a vertex-based cell model, in conjunction with a solver for the

Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18: A New Generation Radioprotector Protecting Human Erythrocytes Against Multiple Biochemical Damage Modes Upon Gamma Irradiation, Identifying It as a Scavenger of Short‐ and Long‐Lived Radicals

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18 demonstrates strong radioprotective properties as a scavenger of both short‐ and long‐lived radicals. The study reveals protection of human erythrocytes from γ‐radiation–induced biochemical damage via post‐irradiation removal of primary and secondary reactive oxidants, supported by pulse radiolysis kinetics.

Spatial signals link exit from mitosis to spindle position

open access: yeseLife, 2016
In budding yeast, if the spindle becomes mispositioned, cells prevent exit from mitosis by inhibiting the mitotic exit network (MEN). The MEN is a signaling cascade that localizes to spindle pole bodies (SPBs) and activates the phosphatase Cdc14.

Delivery of Multifunctional Microspheres via Intravesical Instillation for Bladder Carcinoma: Therapeutic Potential and Mechanistic Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
PCTM microspheres were successfully synthesized using microfluidic and click chemistry techniques.In Vivo and in vitro experiments have shown that PCTM microspheres have obvious targeting, adhesion, membrane penetration and anti‐tumor properties for bladder tumors.The antitumor mechanism of PCTM microspheres is to indirectly induce S‐stage blockage of ...

Addressing a weakness of anticancer therapy with mitosis inhibitors: Mitotic slippage

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017
Mitosis inhibitors, which include antimicrotubule drugs, are chemotherapy agents that induce the arrest and apoptosis of mitotic cells. Mitotic slippage, in which mitotically arrested cells exit mitosis, limits the effectiveness of mitosis inhibitors. We

Somatic Pairing in Drosophila virilis Mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
In neuroblast cells homologous chromosomes tend to pair during prophase of mitosis. Heterochromatic elements of homologous chromosomes are widely separated in very early prophase, at which time the euchromatin is poorly stained.

Characterization of Microplastics in Human Gastric Cancer and Control Tissues and Analysis of Associated Genetic Features

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the presence of microplastics in human normal gastric, para‐tumor, and gastric tumor tissue and confirms the association between microplastic exposure and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. This study explores the transcriptomic changes induced by microplastic exposure, laying the foundation for further investigation into

Cellular aspect ratio and cell division mechanics underlie the patterning of cell progeny in diverse mammalian epithelia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cell division is essential to expand, shape, and replenish epithelia. In the adult small intestine, cells from a common progenitor intermix with other lineages, whereas cell progeny in many other epithelia form contiguous patches.

Two‐Photon 3D Printing of Functional Microstructures Inside Living Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates 3D printing inside living cells by using two‐photon photo‐lithography. A bio‐compatible photoresist is injected into cells and selectively polymerized with a femtosecond laser, creating custom‐shaped intracellular structures with submicron resolution.

Proliferative index using Ki-67 index in reactive mesothelial versus metastatic adenocarcinoma cells in serous fluid

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2012
Background: The cytological diagnoses of serous effusions are usually made by routine cytomorphology with certainty. However, overlapping cases sometimes exist between reactive mesothelial and adenocarcinoma cells.
