The role of the coactivators PGC-1α and PGC-1β in retina and skeletal muscle [PDF]

, 2011
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator- 1 (PGC-1) designates a family of coactivators consisting of PGC-1α, PGC-1β and PRC. By associating with transcription factors like nuclear receptors, they induce transcription of target genes that

Regulation of skeletal muscle plasticity by the transcriptional coregulators PGC-1α and NCoR1 [PDF]

, 2013
Skeletal muscle plasticity is regulated by a wide range of factors, among which environmental stimuli such as exercise play a central role. Importantly, changes in skeletal muscle phenotype exert a direct impact on health and risk to premature death.

A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.

A sandwich-like nanofibrous scaffold with macrophage phenotype transformation and myogenic differentiation for skeletal muscle regeneration

Bioactive Materials
Skeletal muscle injuries caused by trauma, infections, or sports tear are common clinical diseases. Currently, the regeneration and repair of muscle tissue, which is highly heterogeneous, remains a significant challenge.
