Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...

"In silico" prediction of drug transport across physiological barriers [PDF]
, 2011 Physiological barriers maintain and safeguard homeostasis of certain body compartments by an increased resistance against free diffusion. Distribution and pharmacokinetics of drugs can be altered as well, if they have to cross these barriers in order to ...

Optimization of Movement: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Movement Systems as Emergent Phenomena.
Physical Therapy, 2018 The term "movement system" has been defined as "represent(ing) the collection of systems (cardiovascular, pulmonary, endocrine, integumentary, nervous, and musculoskeletal) that interact to move the body or its component parts."5 Although we do not ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review examines how in vitro electrical and mechanical stimulation modulates wound healing in fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Analyzing over 560 experimental data points, we relate stimulation parameters to proliferation and migration outcomes, evaluate platform designs, and highlight the need for multi‐parameter optimization to advance targeted ...

A systemic analysis of the ideas immanent in neuromodulation
, 2008 This thesis focuses on the phenomena of neuromodulation — these are a set of diffuse chemical pathways that modify the properties of neurons and act in concert with the more traditional pathways mediated by synapses (neurotransmission).

Embracing cancer complexity: Hallmarks of systemic disease
CellSUMMARY The last 50 years have witnessed extraordinary developments in understanding mechanisms of carcinogenesis, synthesized as the hallmarks of cancer. Despite this logical framework, our understanding of the molecular basis of systemic manifestations

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study relies on the development of a new sensor that can detect two closely related proteins involved in Alzheimer's disease at the same time. Unlike traditional methods, it works in natural conditions and does not require sample pretreatment. The device is highly sensitive and was successfully tested on patient samples, offering promises for ...

Thermal signatures of human pheromones in sexual and reproductive behaviour
, 2010 Chemically mediated sexual communication in humans has been largely neglected due to its non-conscious and relatively concealed nature. However, menstrual cycle synchronisation, puberty onset in young pre-pubertal girls exposed to their stepfather, and ...
