Metabolomic and microbiome analysis of cervicovaginal mucus in in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer: Toward predicting pregnancy success

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology
Purpose In the context of in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer (IVF–ET), factors other than egg quality may be key determinants of treatment success, in particular, maternal factors related to uterine endometrial receptivity and unidentified factors ...

A new role for exhaled nitric oxide as a functional marker of peripheral airway caliber changes: a theoretical study

open access: yes, 2017
Though considered as an inflammation marker, exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) was shown to be sensitive to airway caliber changes to such an extent that it might be considered as a marker of them. It is thus important to understand how these changes and their

Toward Wireless Implantable Robotic Systems Driven by Magnetic Field for Personalized Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic materials are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling sensing and actuation at small scales. This perspective highlights recent advances in magnetic materials and magnetically actuated devices for wireless sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting toward implantable robotic systems for closed‐loop therapy.

Dual‐Functional Ingestible Passive Capsules for High‐Throughput Intestinal Sampling with Sealed Containment and Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To address challenges in high‐throughput intestinal sampling with sealed containment and target drug delivery, we developed a dual‐functional ingestible passive capsule with a dual‐triggered control system based on pH‐response and mechanical actuation.

Birth of mucus

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2010
the birth of mucus is one of the most dramatic events in physiology. Fetal mucin develops inside its intracellular membrane-bound womb by polymerization of subunits of protein cores densely decorated with negatively charged oligosaccharides into polymers of as much as 108 Daltons. During gestation,

CD207‐Positive Dendritic Cells Promote Emphysema Through CD8+ T Cell Pathway in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.
