Imine Crosslinked, Injectable, and Self‐Healing Fucoidan Hydrogel with Immunomodulatory Properties
This study develops an injectable fucoidan‐based hydrogel with tunable properties for tissue engineering. By oxidizing fucoidan (OFu) to introduce aldehydes, imine crosslinks are formed with amine‐containing polymers, enabling self‐healing, injectability, and long‐term stability (≥28 days). The OFu‐gelatin hydrogel demonstrated biocompatibility, immune‐

IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL EXPRESSION OF NGF/TrkA AND BDNF/TrkB IN TUMOR PARIENCHYMA AND PERIPROSTATIC ADIPOSE TISSUE, DEPENDING ON THE PATHOANATOMIC STAGE OF PROSTATE CANCER [PDF]
Introduction: For more than 30 years, the idea of inhibiting growth factors has taken over the minds of different generations of scientists since the progression of the neoplastic process is determined by uncontrolled proliferation differentiation and ...

Characterisation of ERK distribution and activity in rat pheochromocytoma cells : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Molecular Biology at Massey University [PDF]
Nerve growth factor (NGF) binds to the NGF receptor, TrkA, at the tips of nerve cell axons, sending a signal that prevents programmed cell death and causes survival, growth, and differentiation of the nerve cell.

Diffraction-free beam propagation at the exceptional point of non-Hermitian Glauber Fock lattices [PDF]
We construct localized beams that are located at the edge of a non-Hermitian Glauber Fock (NGF) lattice made of coupled waveguides and can propagate for a long distance without almost no diffraction. Specifically, we calculate the closed-form of the eigenstates at the exceptional point of a semi-infinite NGF lattice composed of waveguides which are ...

Insights on Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration
Peripheral nerve injury is a common condition due to trauma that significantly impacts the life of the affected individual. This review explores the anatomy, classification, and pathophysiology of peripheral nerve injuries. It also discusses various types of nerve conduits and presents a detailed review of 3D bioprinted nerve conduits used in both in ...

APP regulates NGF receptor trafficking and NGF-mediated neuronal differentiation and survival. [PDF]
β-Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD) but its physiological function is largely undetermined. APP has been found to regulate retrograde transport of nerve growth factor (NGF), which plays a crucial role in ...

Unveiling a Rich System of Faint Dwarf Galaxies in the Next Generation Fornax Survey [PDF]
We report the discovery of 158 previously undetected dwarf galaxies in the Fornax cluster central regions using a deep coadded $u, g$ and $i$-band image obtained with the DECam wide-field camera mounted on the 4-meter Blanco telescope at the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory as part of the {\it Next Generation Fornax Survey} (NGFS).
