Nucleosomes indicate the in vitro radiosensitivity of irradiated bronchoepithelial and lung cancer cells [PDF]
Nucleosomes, which are typical cell death products, are elevated in the serum of cancer patients and are known to rapidly increase during radiotherapy.

Organoids in concert: engineering in vitro models toward enhanced fidelity
Organoids have emerged as a powerful platform for studying complex biological processes and diseases in vitro. However, most studies have focused on individual organoids, overlooking the inter‐organ interactions in vivo and limiting the physiological ...

Designing stem cell niches for differentiation and self-renewal [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cells, characterized by their ability to differentiate into skeletal tissues and self-renew, hold great promise for both regenerative medicine and novel therapeutic discovery. However, their regenerative capacity is retained only when in

This study presents the development and characterization of injectable nanocomposite hydrogels based on N‐succinyl chitosan, oxidized guar gum, and bacterial cellulose nanofibers. Emphasizing enhanced mechanical properties and biocompatibility, the hydrogels exhibit fast gelation, improved structural integrity, and reduced swelling. Their potential for

Dissociated Neuronal Cultures as Model Systems for Self-Organized Prediction [PDF]
Dissociated neuronal cultures provide a simplified yet effective model system for investigating self-organized prediction and information processing in neural networks. This review consolidates current research demonstrating that these in vitro networks display fundamental computational capabilities, including predictive coding, adaptive learning, goal-

Paul Alsberg (1883-1965) et le transfert adaptatif du biologique au technique : un précurseur de la "cultural niche construction" ? [PDF]
We propose, in this paper, both a presentation and a discussion of Paul Alsberg's thesis on the supposed specificity principle of human evolution. The author maintains a difference of nature between Man and Animal relying on an opposition between "body-adaptation" - that of the Animal - and "extrabodily-adaptation" - that of Man in which the means of ...

Laboratory protocols for producing thin‐film pH electrodes for sterilized single‐use technologies have been successfully developed into a semiautomated workflow, with higher throughput and precision of membrane thickness. Accuracies are within 0.05 pH units versus ground truth, and uncertainty analysis reveals the largest sources of error to be derived

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies
An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...

Towards Measuring and Modeling "Culture" in LLMs: A Survey [PDF]
We present a survey of more than 90 recent papers that aim to study cultural representation and inclusion in large language models (LLMs). We observe that none of the studies explicitly define "culture, which is a complex, multifaceted concept; instead, they probe the models on some specially designed datasets which represent certain aspects of ...
