Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

Multidimensional Cellular Micro‐Compartments to Model Invasive Lobular Carcinoma Dormancy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is an understudied subtype of breast cancer that is susceptible to late recurrences. In this study, micro‐compartmentalization techniques spanning multiple dimensions, including 2D, pseudo‐3D, and 3D, are integrated to uncover the mechanisms underlying ILC dormancy, revealing the central role of p27Kip1.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in the Second Decade [PDF]

Journal of Innate Immunity, 2018
Nearly 15 years after the first description of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), our knowledge concerning this structure has expanded considerably. Initially, NETs were considered solely an elaborate function of the innate immune system to combat invading microorganisms.

How Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Become Visible

Journal of Immunology Research, 2016
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been identified as a fundamental innate immune defense mechanism against different pathogens. NETs are characterized as released nuclear DNA associated with histones and granule proteins, which form an ...

Nanomaterial Strategies for Pulmonary Delivery of Immunotherapeutics in Lung Cancer Treatment

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Inhalable immunotherapeutic nanomedicines enable organ‐selective immune modulation by overcoming pulmonary delivery barriers and concentrating therapy within lung tumors. This Review defines how nanomaterial properties govern airway deposition, retention, cellular partitioning, and immune activation across vaccines, checkpoint blockade, STING agonists,

Neutrophil extracellular traps in tissue pathology.

Histology and histopathology, 2016
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are innate immune systems against invading pathogens. NETs are characterized as released DNA mixed with cytoplasmic antimicrobial proteins such as myeloperoxidase, proteinase3 and neutrophil elastase. While NETs are thought to have an important role in host defense, recent work has suggested that NETs contribute to

Reprogramming the Immunosuppressive Microenvironment in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer via FAP‐Targeted Nanoprobes for Multimodal Imaging and Photothermal Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) with fibroblast activation protein (FAP)‐directed nanoprobes for multimodal imaging and photothermal remodeling of the immunosuppressive microenvironment to enhance immunotherapy in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Tissue Cytometry Assay with Nuclear Segmentation for Quantifying NETotic Cells in Neutrophils Stimulated by Spermatozoa in Veterinary Species

Animals
Upon activation, neutrophils perform three distinct functions: phagocytosis, degranulation of antimicrobial substances into the extracellular medium, and release of neutrophil extracellular traps.
