Role of Membrane GM1 on Early Neuronal Membrane Actions of Aβ During Onset of Alzheimer\u27s Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ability of beta-amyloid peptide (Aβ) to disrupt the plasma membrane through formation of pores and membrane breakage has been previously described. However, the molecular determinants for these effects are largely unknown.

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

3D‐Printed Macroporous Resin Anode in Microbial Fuel Cell‐Based Biosensors for Efficient Biodegradable Organic Carbon Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D‐printed gyroid resin anode for microbial fuel cell biosensors. Compared with carbon felt, it enables either a broader dynamic range or higher sensitivity, depending on the operation mode. By improving real‐time monitoring of organic load, these biosensors support more efficient process control and contribute to the goal of ...

Reducing the PFAS‐Content in Fuel Cells: Novel Fluorine‐Free Gas Diffusion Layers for Hydrocarbon‐based Catalyst Coated Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Fluorine‐free microporous layers (MPLs) are optimized for hydrocarbon‐based proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) using vapor‐grown carbon fibers (VGCF), carbon black (CB), and a silane treatment. The effects of MPL composition on wetting behavior, permeability, electrical resistance, and electrochemical performance are investigated ...

Calhm6 Governs Macrophage Polarization Through Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 Axis and Ectosomal Delivery in Inflammatory Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Calhm6 drives M2 macrophage polarization via the Chp1‐Camk4‐Creb1 axis, suppressing inflammation through calcium‐dependent ectosomal delivery. Calhm6 deficiency enhances M1 responses, boosting bactericidal activity but exacerbating tissue damage. LPS/IFNγ upregulate Calhm6 via Irf1, while IL‐4/Stat6 inhibits it, balancing immune outcomes.
