A Soft Matrix Microenvironment Promotes Laterally Spreading Tumors via Oxidative Phosphorylation‐Dependent Cell Adhesion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...

Morphotropic Phase Boundary in Graft Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride‐co‐Tetrafluoroethylene) With High Curie Temperature

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The first TrFE‐free ferroelectric polymers exhibiting concurrently a morphotropic phase boundary and high Curie temperature are reported through a grafting strategy, which is completely different from previous methods to design MPB by composition and irradiation. This finding offers a cost‐effective solution to decode the long‐standing inverse relation

Bio‐Inspired Mechanical Amplification Block on Implantable Tactile Sensors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Implantable strain sensors offer opportunities for continuous biomechanical monitoring, but their performance deteriorates severely once embedded in soft tissue due to mechanical shielding that suppresses strain transmission to the sensing layer.

Mechanisms of Mitochondrial Toxicity and Cytotoxicity Caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa Pyocyanin in Human Nasal Epithelial Cells

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis‐related chronic rhinosinusitis (CF‐CRS) that produces phenazine metabolites pyocyanin and 1‐hydroxyphenazine (1‐HP), which may have detrimental effects on mitochondria, reactive oxygen species (ROS), Ca2+ signaling, and apoptosis.
