Electronic jelly: Engineering the mechanics of hydrogels for flexible electronics

FlexMat, EarlyView.
By unifying mechanical reinforcement strategies—double networks, structural ordering, and dynamic interactions—this review demonstrates how engineered hydrogels can transcend their fragility to achieve the strength, toughness, and reliability required for flexible electronics, including wearable sensors, energy devices, and soft robotic systems ...

Amino Acid Sequence of Bacterial Microbe-Associated Molecular Pattern flg22 Is Required for Virulence

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2008
Flagellin proteins derived from Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 6605 and flg22Pa (QRLSTGSRINSAKDDAAGLQIA), one of the microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMP) in bacterial flagellin, induce cell death and growth inhibition in Arabidopsis thaliana. To

HIV provides ample PAMPs for innate immune sensing [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013
Viral genomes comprise either RNA or DNA, and sometimes both, as can happen with retroviruses at different stages of their life cycle. Viral nucleic acids are pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that are detected by a variety of pathogen-recognition receptors (PPRs), key components of the innate immune system.

Circadian Immunity and Vascular Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease Chronotherapy Windows: Time for a Re‐Assessment

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): A Comprehensive Overview From Basic Biology to Clinical Prevention and Control

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

Optimal Site of the Reference Electrode for Recording the Compound Muscle Action Potential of the Deltoid Muscle

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.

Cognitive Dysfunction Is Associated With an Underestimation of Respiratory Function in ALS

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The association between low forced vital capacity (FVC) and cognitive impairment in ALS is ambiguous; it could be due to respiratory dysfunction and/or poor effort from cognitive deficits. We used the objective, non‐volitional phrenic nerve motor response amplitude (PAmp) to clarify how cognitive status affects the ...
