Folic acid modifies the shape of epithelial cells during morphogenesis via a Folr1 and MLCK dependent mechanism

open access: yesBiology Open, 2019
Folic acid supplementation can prevent neural tube defects, but the specific molecular mechanisms by which it does have not been elucidated. During neural plate morphogenesis, epithelial cell apical constriction cooperates with other events to drive ...

Prevention of Neural Tube Defects in Ireland

open access: yes, 2017
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are a group of serious congenital malformations, including encephalocoele and spina bifida (SB) which are associated with failure of closure of the neural tube during early embryonic development.

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.
