Does NETosis Contribute to the Bacterial Pathoadaptation in Cystic Fibrosis? [PDF]

, 2014
Significant advances in our understanding of neutrophil biology were made in the past several years. The exciting discovery that neutrophils deploy neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to catch pathogens paved the way for a series of additional studies ...

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Visualization of ex vivo Neutrophil Extracellular Traps by Fluorescence Microscopy

Bio-Protocol, 2015
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are extracellular DNAs decorated with nuclear and granular proteins such as histones, neutrophil elastase or myeloperoxidase. They exhibit fibrous mesh-like, web-like, or string-like structures. Here, we describe our

Airborne 1O2 Delivery via a Superhydrophobic Dressing as a Pathway to Next‐Generation Wound Therapies, an in Vivo Murine Burn Model Study

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the SH bandage placed on an infected burn wound and its role in wound healing. A superhydrophobic PDMS membrane coated with the PS verteporfin is placed over the wound area and illuminated with a red laser at 690 nm, generating airborne 1O2 above the tissue.

Elevated plasma neutrophil elastase concentration is associated with disease activity in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. [PDF]

, 2015
INTRODUCTION: Genetic and autoimmune risk factors contribute to the development of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) but triggers are needed to bring about acute disease.

Mitochondrial Transplantation via Magnetically Responsive Artificial Cells Promotes Intracerebral Hemorrhage Recovery by Supporting Microglia Immunological Homeostasis

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.
A type of magnetically responsive artificial cells (ACs) has been developed, demonstrating the loading of mitochondria and self‐enclosure processes to ensure the protection of mitochondrial transport via the bloodstream. The treatment with ACs effectively transplanted mitochondria around the lesion, thereby improving neurological recovery by supporting

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Initiate Gallstone Formation [PDF]

Immunity, 2019
The presence of gallstones (cholelithiasis) is a highly prevalent and severe disease and one of the leading causes of hospital admissions worldwide. Due to its substantial health impact, we investigated the biological mechanisms that lead to the formation and growth of gallstones.

Hydrogel Confinement Strategies for 3D Cell Culture in Microfluidic Systems

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hydrogel confinement structures are key to organizing 3D cell cultures in microfluidic devices. This review classifies five structural strategies (micropillar, phaseguide, porous membrane, stepped‐height, and support‐free) and examines their trade‐offs alongside fabrication methods.
