Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

Mechanical and Electrical Phenotype of hiPSC‐Cardiomyocytes on Fibronectin‐Based Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce fibronectin‐based PEG hydrogels with controlled rigidity to enable the culture of iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes. These substrates offer an alternative to the current culture of these cells on fibronectin‐coated glass, providing enhanced structural and functional behavior. The system provides a more physiologically relevant platform to assess

Study of Seed Dormancy in Seven Medicinal Species from Apiaceae

open access: yesپژوهش‌های بذر ایران, 2015
Seeds of seven species of medicinal plants collected from the natural habitat in Lorestan province in summer 2011. Germination test carried out in a completely randomized design with four replications of 25 seeds in H2O. Species of Smyrnium cordifrolium,

Effect of GA3 on ribonuclease activity in the embryos and endosperm of spring barley grain in the post-harvest dormancy period

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2015
The effect of GA3 on ribonuclease activity in the embryos and endosperm of barley seeds was investigated during dormancy and after its end. Incubation of dormancy grain with GA3 stimulated its germination, increased the dry weight of the embryos and ...

Models of Microbial Dormancy in Biofilms and Planktonic Cultures

open access: yes, 2010
We present models of dormancy in a planktonic culture and in biofilm, and examine the relative advantage of short dormancy versus long dormancy times in each case.

Optimal allocation patterns and optimal seed mass of a perennial plant

open access: yes, 2013
We present a novel optimal allocation model for perennial plants, in which assimilates are not allocated directly to vegetative or reproductive parts but instead go first to a storage compartment from where they are then optimally redistributed.

Paracrine Factor Local Gradient‐Generating System for Engineering Perfusable Vascularized Hepatocyte Tissues with Perfusion‐Induced Proliferation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A paracrine factor local gradient (PFLG)‐generating system enables microvessel penetration across 3D hepatocyte tissues. The resulting vascularized constructs recapitulate hepatic sinusoidal hepatocyte—endothelial contact architecture and enhance hepatic functions in vitro.

Seed morphoanatomy may confer restraints against the germination of Pouteria glomerata (Sapotaceae) in a Neotropical wetland

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences
The tree-shrub species Pouteria glomerata (Miq.) Radlk. (Sapotaceae) occurs in periodically flooded areas marked by periods of drought. It has the potential for use in the ecological restoration of riparian forests; however, seed germination strategies ...

The bacillary and macrophage response to hypoxia in tuberculosis and the consequences for T cell antigen recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
M. tuberculosis is a facultative anaerobe and its characteristic pathological hallmark, the granuloma, exhibits hypoxia in humans and in most experimental models. Thus the host and bacillary adaptation to hypoxia is of central importance in understanding
