Mapping the amplitude and phase of dissolved ¹²⁹Xe red blood cell signal oscillations with keyhole spectroscopic lung imaging

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
AbstractPurposeTo assess the regional amplitude and phase of dissolved 129Xe red blood cell (RBC) signal oscillations in the lung vasculature with keyhole spectroscopic imaging and to compare with previous methodology, which does not account for oscillation phase.Methods129Xe gas transfer was measured with a four‐echo 3D radial spectroscopic imaging ...

A Systematic Study of GelMA‐Carbopol Bioinks for High‐Fidelity Extrusion 3D Bioprinting at Physiological Temperatures

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gonzalez Martinez and collaborators develop a strategy to formulate high performance GelMA‐based bioinks with low solids contents. The resulting bioinks enable 3D bioprinting at 37 °C of high‐fidelity structures with tunable mechanical properties that support high cell viability and function.

Calcium oscillations in mesenchymal stem cells, a control on cell cycle progression to influence cell fate towards proliferation or differentiation?

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Under regular culture conditions, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit cytosolic calcium concentration oscillations (Ca2+ oscillations), that change, especially in frequency, after the differentiation of the MSCs.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

mTORC1 activity oscillates throughout the cell cycle, promoting mitotic entry and differentially influencing autophagy induction

Cell Reports
Summary: Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1) is a master metabolic regulator that is active in nearly all proliferating eukaryotic cells; however, it is unclear whether mTORC1 activity changes throughout the cell cycle. We find that mTORC1

Visualization of Notch signaling oscillation in cells and tissues.

Visualization of Notch signaling oscillation in cells and tissues.
The Notch signaling effectors Hes1 and Hes7 exhibit oscillatory expression with a period of about 2-3 h during embryogenesis. Hes1 oscillation is important for proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells, whereas Hes7 oscillation regulates periodic formation of somites.

Resolving the Structural Duality of Graphene Grain Boundaries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Cantilever ncAFM resolves the atomic structure of grain boundaries in graphene, revealing coexisting stable and metastable types. Both contain pentagon/heptagon defects, but metastable GBs show irregular geometries. Modeling shows metastable GBs form under compression, exhibiting vertical corrugation, while stable GBs are flat.

Origins of Ultrasensitivity and Complex Signaling Dynamics of Cellular Hydrogen Peroxide and Peroxiredoxin

Antioxidants
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a crucial role in cell signaling in response to physiological and environmental perturbations. H2O2 can oxidize typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (PRX) first into a sulfenic acid, which resolves into a disulfide that can be ...

Tuning Amorphous‐Crystalline Catalytic Interfaces by Mechanochemistry: Cu‐Based Metallic Glasses Coupled with Ceria for CO Oxidation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ball‐milling Cu‐based metallic glasses with ceria creates a unique nanostructure where metallic glass particles are wrapped by CeO2 nanoparticles. The intimate integration triggers copper state reorganization during reaction and aging, boosting CO oxidation and COPrOx activity.
