Microenvironmental Reprogramming by 3D Anisotropic Cardiac Extracellular Matrix Induces Nuclear Remodeling and Epigenetic Maturation of Chemically Induced Cardiomyocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D anisotropic hydrogel derived from heart extracellular matrix guides cytoskeletal alignment and nuclear remodeling in reprogrammed cardiomyocyte‐like cells. This study reveals how matrix alignment modulates nuclear envelope dynamics and chromatin state, triggering transcriptional and functional maturation.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Orthodontics for Determining Skeletal Age Based on Cervical Vertebra Maturation Degree: A Comprehensive Review

Health Science Reports
Background and Aims Dentofacial orthopedic treatment planning highly depends on the estimation of skeletal growth peak. In most cases, chronological age and biological age differ, some techniques estimate skeletal age by analyzing cervical vertebrae ...

THE USE OF LATEX AGGLUTINATION TEST AS A RAPID METHOD FOR DETECTION OF ANTIBODIES TO MYCOPLASMA BOVIS IN COMPARISON WITH ELISA

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2009
  Mycoplasma bovis (M. bovis) induces various clinical manifestations in cattle, such as mastitis, arthritis, and pneumonia. A latex agglutination test (LAT) has been developed to detect antibodies in bovine sera as a field test.

Myogenic Fusogen‐Engineered Lipid Nanoparticles Enhance mRNA Delivery in Skeletal Muscle

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a biomimetic strategy of engineering full‐length Myomaker, a muscle‐specific fusogen, into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to harness the native myoblast fusion capability for skeletal muscle mRNA delivery. The resulting Mymk‐LNPs enhance transfection in differentiating myocytes and enable Cre‐mediated reporter activation in injured ...

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Effect of perinatal risk factors on neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) level in umbilical and peripheral blood in neonates [PDF]

, 2017
Introduction: Acute kidney injury biomarkers are opening a new era in diagnosing kidney failure. The requirement for a specific and sensitive marker of kidney function is highly desirable in neonates because the diagnostic possibilities in this age ...

Patient‐Derived 3D Heart‐On‐a‐Chip Model of Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Embedded Bead‐Based Mapping of Tissue Contractility

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A heart‐on‐a‐chip model of dilated cardiomyopathy is developed from patient‐derived induced pluripotent stem cells. The model recapitulates key disease phenotypes and enables functional assessment through integrated bead‐based tracking and pillar deflection measurements.
