Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

WHAT IS THE BEST METHOD TO EVALUATE RETINAL MICROCIRCULATION?
The microvasculature of retinal ganglion cell layer, which is the part of central nervous system, can be investigated non-invasively in human. For clinical routine the fluorescence angiography is used to test patency and leak of retinal or choroid ...

Facile Deep Brain Electrode Coating with MXene for Improved Electrode Performance
Facile dip‐coating of commercial carbon fiber electrodes with Ti3C2Tx MXene improves electrical conductivity, reduces impedance, and enables single‐neuron recordings in the rat hippocampus over four weeks. The coating maintains biocompatibility, minimizes inflammation, and remains MRI‐compatible.

A novel blood‐brain barrier‐penetrating terpolymer nanoparticle to deliver brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is designed. The BDNF‐TPN significantly enhances BDNF accumulation in the brain following intravenous injection, reduces apoptosis and neuroinflammation, thus promoting neuronal survival and ...
