Investigation of the anti-pseudorabies virus activity of interferon lambda 3 in cultured porcine kidney epithelial cells. [PDF]
IFN‐λ3 had antiviral activity against PRV and the upregulation of ISGs and IFN‐λ mRNA expression may be the mechanism of IFN‐λ3's antiviral activities. Thus, IFN‐λ3 has a decisive function that greatly limits PRV replication in PK‐15 cells. Abstract Background It has been reported Interferon‐λ (IFN‐λ) has stronger antiviral effect than other ...

Illuminating Satellite Cells: Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy for 3D Imaging of Murine Skeletal Muscles Damaged by Ex Vivo Forced Eccentric Contraction. [PDF]
This study presents the light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) as a tool for 3D‐imaging of whole skeletal muscle to reveal satellite cells (SCs), the muscle stem cells that activate following damage to repair injured tissue. After tissue clearing and whole‐mount staining process aimed to enable optical access and specific cell labeling (1), murine ...

Cartilage biomechanics: From the basic facts to the challenges of tissue engineering
Abstract Articular cartilage (AC) is the thin tissue that covers the long bone ends in the joints and that ensures the transmission of forces between adjacent bones while allowing nearly frictionless movements between them. AC repair is a technologic and scientific challenge that has been addressed with numerous approaches.

Abstract Objective Tape stripping is an often‐used non‐invasive destructive method to investigate the skin penetration of a substance. In recent years, however, the suitability of confocal Raman spectroscopy (CRS) as a non‐invasive method of non‐destructive examination of the skin has become increasingly apparent.

Porous Silicon Microneedles for Enhanced Transdermal Drug Delivery
The use of high‐density porous silicon microneedle arrays with tunable porosity for delivering drugs via the transdermal route with minimal invasiveness, allows for controlled degradation rate, high payload capacity, and mechanical stability compared to other reported microneedle systems. It shows significant potential for biomedical and pharmaceutical

A surface adsorption strategy is developed to engineer microcomposites, which feature with ultrahigh loading capacity (up to 78.9%) and precise ratiometric control of co‐encapsulated peptides. The developed strategy sets a new paradigm to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacological performance of water‐soluble therapeutics, especially for the ...

Anti‐obesity effects of Chenpi: an artificial gastrointestinal system study
This study investigated how the microbial community changes during treatment with Chenpi using the Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME) and two preparations of Chenpi extract were tested: Chenpi suspended in oil only and Chenpi in a viscoelastic emulsion. Short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were measured during treatment to monitor

Abstract Background Microbial colonisation of piglets’ intestines starts at birth, especially from contact with sow's faeces. Piglet microbiota could therefore be influenced by the sow's diet. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the microbiological flora of liquid feed for sows can be associated with the development of neonatal ...
