Double Sided Traction Force Microscopy: A Method to Confine Cells for Physiologically Relevant Force Measurements

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper we describe a technique to make a confined environment of variable stiffness that is suitable for high‐resolution live‐cell imaging. This versatile and adaptable technique enables cell confinement between soft elastic surfaces made from polyacrylamide gels.

Proteomic Profiling of Xenobiotic and Nutrient Transporters in Human Placenta of Different Gestational Ages

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The placenta serves a critical role in nutrient uptake and waste elimination for the developing fetus. The placenta is also responsible for the uptake and/or exchange of xenobiotics, including medications, between the maternal and fetal bloodstreams. An estimated 40–80% of women take medications or drugs during pregnancy.

Seismic analysis and design of tunnels within fault ground: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The research methods of seismic response of tunnels within fault ground, including field investigations, analytical solutions, physical experiments, and numerical simulations, and seismic countermeasures are discussed. The present study examines the shortcomings and limitations of the current research and design, and puts forward proposals for future ...

Multi‐factor coupling effects in hydraulic fracturing of laminated shale: Experimental insights and physics‐informed neural network‐driven optimization

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study establishes a multi‐factor coupling framework for predicting breakdown pressure in laminated shale by integrating experimental hydraulic fracturing tests, physics‐informed neural networks (PINNs), and Sobol sensitivity analysis. It reveals how differential stress, the bedding dip angle, and the injection rate interact to influence fracture ...

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common
