4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

Evaluation of Cell‐Extracellular Vesicle Interaction Using a Microfluidic Microsystem (CellExoChip)

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A new microfluidic platform, the CellExoChip, reveals how cancer cells interact with exosomes to influence metastasis. This device isolates cancer cells and tracks their uptake exosomes and secretion of their exosomes in response to other exosomes. Lung cancer cells are showed preferentially absorb and respond to their own exosomes—hinting at a hidden ...

Label‐Free Characterization of Lipid Interfaces Using Plasmonic Gold Nanorods as Optically Active Nanosensors

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A label‐free plasmonic nanosensor platform is presented based on single gold nanorods for the nanometric characterization of lipid interfaces. By correlating optical scattering signals with membrane packing and refractive index, this approach enables the detection of gel‐to‐fluid transitions in lipid interfaces, offering a robust, high‐resolution ...

Minimally Invasive Chemical Biopsy Needle with Self‐Wettable Extraction Phase For In Vivo Tissue Sampling During Medical Procedures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new tissue sampling device using an acupuncture needle with bio‐compatible extraction sorbents in the recessed section is developed. The coating material using self‐wettable particles doesn't require solvent activation after sterilization. This device is applied for the anti‐cancer drug concentration monitoring during the in vivo lung perfusion ...

Onion‐Mitochondria Inhibit Lipopolysaccharide‐Induced Acute Lung Injury by Shaping Lung Macrophage Mitochondrial Function

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Proposed model of orally administered onion mitochondria (O‐Mit) uptake by lung macrophages and fuse with macrophage mitochondria (M‐Mit). This fusion reprograms the metabolism of dysfunctional M‐Mit in lipopolysaccharide‐induced murine acute lung injury by modulating dynamin‐related protein 1 (DRP1) phosphorylation and cardiolipin peroxidation ...
