A Human Neural Tube Model Using 4D Self‐Folding Smart Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) exhibit features comparable to the inner cell mass of the human embryo. iPSCs are applied to a novel self‐folding 4D‐Neural Tube (4D‐NT) structure that mimics the neurulation process. This 4D‐NT model recapitulates early events of human neural development and represents a platform to explore neurodevelopmental ...

Screen-printed platinum electrodes for the detection of cupric and ferric ions in high chloride backgrounds

open access: yes, 2010
Screen-printed platinum electrodes developed for use in corrosion monitoring applications have been used to detect cupric and ferric ions both individually and as mixtures in a background of 3.5% by weight sodium chloride and in the presence of dissolved

RGS14 (414)-mediated prevention of an episodic memory loss: a study of molecular mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A large proportion of human populations suffer memory impairments either caused by normal aging or afflicted by diverse neurological and neurodegenerative diseases. Memory enhancers and other drugs tested so far against memory loss have failed to produce

Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Scaffolds to Engineer the Dormant Landscape of Microscopic Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Decellularized liver extracellular matrix scaffolds provide a platform to study dormant liver‐metastatic colorectal cancer. They induce reversible dormancy, in combination with nutrient depletion and low dose chemotherapy, through cell cycle arrest and chemotherapy resistance.

Rapid diagnosis of meningitis using reagent strips.

open access: yesIndian journal of medical sciences, 2004
Identification of causative agent with estimation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) glucose, protein, cells is necessary for accurate diagnosis of meningitis. Unfortunately, even these facilities are not available in many areas. Reagent strips that measure glucose and protein in blood and urine can serve this task but have been used with varying results in ...

A Novel Microfluidic System for 3D Epidermis and Full‐Thickness Skin Growth for Nanoparticle Safety Assessment

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a novel, dynamically perfused, configurable microfluidic system for epidermis‐only (E and full‐thickness skin (FT SoC) growth, emulating human skin structure and barrier function. Upon TiO2 nanoparticle exposure, the system reveals compromised barrier integrity, reduced metabolic activity, increased permeability, and chemokine‐driven

Injectable Dual‐Crosslinked Poly(oligo(Ethylene Glycol) Methacrylate) Hydrogels Inspired by Mussel Adhesion for Cutaneous Wound Healing and Functional Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Injectable POEGMA‐DA hydrogels, dual‐crosslinked via dopamine self‐polymerization and dynamic hydrazone bonds, provide a safer alternative to invasive wound closure methods and toxic bioadhesives. Mimicking skin‐like mechanics, they achieve effective tissue adhesion for acute dermal wounds, supporting improved healing outcomes, including reducing ...

Metronidazole‐Loaded Cyclodextrin Nanogels for Antibacterial Therapy and Microbiota Regulation in Periodontitis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A methacrylamide β‐cyclodextrin‐based nanogel (MACD nGel) is developed to load the antimicrobial drug Metronidazole (MNZ) for topical delivery for the treatment of periodontitis. It is demonstrated that cyclodextrin nanogel (nGel) loaded with metronidazole provides an efficient drug delivery route but also has potential clinical applications and offers

Urine Test Strips to Exclude Cerebral Spinal Fluid Blood

open access: yesWestern Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2011
Introduction: Determining the presence or absence of red blood cells (RBC) or their breakdown products in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is essential for the evaluation of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in headache patients.
