Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Differential developmental characteristics of myofibers in the leg muscles of fast- and slow-growing Bian chicken lines

Italian Journal of Animal Science
In this study, we aimed to compare muscle fibre characteristics between fast- and slow-growing Bian chicken lines at three key developmental stages: late embryonic stage, early postnatal stage, and market ages.

The analyisis of some skeletal muscles in lambs of different genotype by the distribution frequency of muscle fibres diameter

Czech journal of animal science, 2000
Samples of m. gluteobiceps, m. longissimus lumborum, m. psoas major, m. semitendinous, m. semimembranosus, m. quadriceps femoris (m. rectus femoris) and m. triceps brachii (caput longum) of 9 male lambs 71 days old, originating from the ewes crossbreds between the Istrian Pramenka breed and Sardinian rams and Sardinian (S), domestic Merino-Wurtemberg ...

Mechanoactive Biomaterials for Cell–Matrix Mechanotransduction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how individual triggers (force, light, or temperature) and combined optothermal or receptor‐targeted actuation induce material responses at the tissue, cellular, and receptor scales. Their spatial (global or focused) and temporal (continuous or cyclic) modulation determines the resulting mechanical output.

“Activation‐Resistance Elimination” Regulation by Lanthanide/Transition Metal Ion‐Coordinated Nanostructures Intensifies Cuproptosis and Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The lanthanide/transition metal ion coordination nanoparticles, La‐Cu@Lap/IWR‐1, with optimized coordination, have been proven to achieve remarkable results in realizing comprehensive tumor cuproptosis through efficient cuproptosis activation and multidimensional resistance elimination, thereby synchronously realizing the synergistic antitumor effects ...

A Noninvasive Approach to Study Localized Forces in 3D Epithelia

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Epithelial morphogenesis depends on dynamic mechanical coupling between adhesion complexes and the cytoskeleton, yet its regulation in polarized 3D tissues remains elusive. We developed a noninvasive strategy using cell‐like elastic microbeads to quantify local forces in intact epithelia.

Muscle fibre types and muscle spindles in the jaw musculature of the rat

, 1984
The fibre composition and occurrence of muscle spindles was studied in the masticatory, the suprahyoid and the infrahyoid muscles of the rat. Muscle fibres were typed as fast-white, fast-intermediate, fast-red and slow-red according to their ATPase and ...

A Critical Review on the Evolution of Chitosan‐Based Injectable Hydrogels in Bone Regeneration

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The graphical illustration depicts hydrogel formulation using chitosan and biocompatible cross‐linkers, major advantages, and incorporation of cells, osteoinductive factors, and therapeutic drugs. Following injection, pH‐responsive gelation enables controlled drug release, promotes cell recruitment and osteogenic differentiation, enhances extracellular
