Ocular Risk Factors for Choroidal Neovascularization in Pathologic Myopia

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2010
PURPOSE. To identify the risk factors for development of myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV), a major cause of visual impairment. METHODS. Enrolled in the study were 23 consecutive patients with bilateral high myopia (axial length, > or =26.5 mm or refractive error, < or =8 D) and unilateral newly developed mCNV who presented to the Myopia ...

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Microglia in pathological neovascularization in the retina

open access: yes, 2017
INTRODUCTION. Mononuclear phagocytes (e.g. microglia, macrophages) have been characterized as potential mediators of retinal neovascularization and degeneration. In vivo assessments of mononuclear phagocyte behavior in animals provides an important insight into disease that improves the understanding of pathological mechanisms and helps to approach new

A Pseudo‐Mytilus Edulis Foot Protein‐Based Hydrogel Adhesive with Osteo‐Vascular‐Immune Coupling Effects for Osteoporotic Bone‐Implant Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by mussel proteins, YDC‐Gel‐Zn is a smart bone glue designed for osteoporotic implants. It adheres strongly to both metal implants and bone for initial fixation. In osteoporosis's inflammatory environment, it sequentially releases zinc ions and therapeutic peptides: the zinc modulates immune cells to reduce inflammation, while the peptides ...

Mitochondria‐Targeted Nanomotor: H2S‐Driven Cascade Therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A mitochondrial‐targeted nanomotor integrates photodynamic therapy, mild photothermal therapy, and enzyme dynamic therapy into a self‐amplifying cascade through H2S‐driven metabolic reprogramming. Abstract Despite advances in combination therapies for cancer treatment, most strategies rely on modular‐additive designs that lack dynamic molecular cues to

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Inspired Microneedle Platform for NIR‐responsive Immunomodulation and Accelerated Chronic Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The research demonstrates a Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐inspired microneedle platform (MSCi@MN) that addresses chronic diabetic wounds by combining MSC‐derived extracellular nanovesicles (NV)–DNA conjugates in microneedle tips with photothermal MXene in the patch layer.

Multiplexed Luminal Tissue Constructs with Reconfigurable Barriers for Dynamic Modeling of Multi‐Tissue Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study describes the fabrication of arrays of luminal tissue constructs for 3D luminal tissue modeling. An oil or media‐filled reservoir between constructs serves as a liquid barrier or bridge to regulate communication between lumens within the array for modeling multi‐tissue interactions in vitro. Abstract Cell‐lined luminal structures are crucial
