From Fiber Bundles to Architected Membranes: Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Architectures for Biohybrid Artificial Lungs

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 55, 1 October 2026.
Additively manufactured triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) membranes offer an architecture‐driven alternative to hollow fiber bundles in artificial lungs. Multiphysics simulations and endothelialized prototypes show that the 3D‐printable membrane architecture improves gas exchange, blood flow distribution, and hemocompatibility, enabling ...

Development of Paquinimod‐Loaded Implants to Modulate the Foreign Body Response

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The foreign body response (FBR) is an immune reaction from the host to any foreign material that makes it beyond barrier tissues, resulting in the recruitment of immune cells and fibroblasts. The FBR to medical implants can lead to degradation and encapsulation, affecting their efficacy, lifespan, and safety.

Identification and Discrimination of Sulfated and Unsulfated Gut‐Hormone Biomarkers in Human Serum by Nanopore

Small, Volume 22, Issue 55, 1 October 2026.
This study discriminates between sulfated and unsulfated cholecystokinin‐8 gut‐hormone forms at single‐molecule‐level resolution. Using an aerolysin nanopore embedded in a hybrid lipid‐polymer membrane, the system produces distinct electrical signatures enabling highly sensitive detection, even in 20% human serum.
