ABSTRACT The avian eggshell is a sophisticated, multi‐functional biocomposite and, more importantly, an autonomous life‐support system evolved to safeguard embryonic development across dynamic and hostile environments. Discussing eggshell‐inspired biomaterials beyond simple structural imitation, this review translates these evolutionary survival ...

Synergistic Regulation of Biomaterials and Macrophages: A Novel Paradigm in Immunotherapy
Bioengineered materials mediating the modulation of macrophage plasticity and inflammatory signals in the tumor microenvironment effectively remodel immunoregulatory states, boost antitumor immunity, and promote tissue repair, achieving synergistic therapeutic outcomes.

ABSTRACT Apatite‐based bone graft materials are widely used for bone repair; however, their limited bioactivity and slow remodeling often hinder replacement by newly formed bone. Electrical surface polarization has emerged as a promising strategy for modifying the surface properties of apatite‐based biomaterials without altering their chemical ...

Efferocytosis is a key process for macrophages to clear apoptotic cells, which undergoes the “ Find Me” chemotaxis signal stage, the “eat me” phagocytosis recognition stage and the “digest me” digestion stage in turn. During the aforementioned three stages, various signaling molecules released by apoptotic cells can promote the phenotypic polarization ...

The overall graphical diagram to summarize the pathological characteristics, pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, preclinical animal models, diagnostic methods, and intervention strategies for neointimal hyperplasia. Neointimal hyperplasia results from excessive proliferation and intimal migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the ...

In age‐associated calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), human valve tissues and calcifying human valvular interstitial cells (hVICs) exhibit senescence‐associated features, while calcifying hVICs hypersecrete mitochondrial‐derived vesicles (MDVs). Donut‐shaped mitochondria serve as physical platforms for MDV budding, whereas Gas6 promotes Ca2+–CaMKII ...

ABSTRACT Background Pulp calcification (PC) is a common imaging finding traditionally attributed to local factors or ageing. However, increasing evidence suggests that it may be associated with broader systemic biological disturbances. Clarifying this association may help determine whether dental pulp findings contribute to the interpretation of ...
