Advances in the Use of Biologics and Biomaterials toward the Improvement of Pancreatic Islet Graft Survival in Type 1 Diabetes

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 4, Issue 3, March 2024.
Although islet transplantation has the potential to serve as a curative treatment for type 1 diabetes, there are many hurdles to achieving long‐term islet graft survival. This review discusses the recent advances in strategies to improve islet survival function using exogenous compounds and conformal coatings as a promising tool for improving islet ...

The biophysical and compositional properties of human basement membranes

The FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 3, Page 477-488, February 2024.
Basement membranes are exceptionally adaptable materials with both extremely stiff and highly elastic properties. This article highlights these features on a selection of human membranes and links them to compositional, biomechanical, and structural profiles down to a molecular level. The role of water in modulating these attributes is also scrutinized

Quantification of insulin‐like growth factor‐I by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 38, Issue S1, January 2024.
We describe three methods of sample preparation for the liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometric measurement of insulin‐like growth factor‐I concentration in blood. One method involves trypsin digestion, the second involves intact protein quantification and the third method is a combination of the first two.

Molecular crosstalk between insulin‐like growth factors and follicle‐stimulating hormone in the regulation of granulosa cell function

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, Volume 23, Issue 1, January/December 2024.
Crosstalk between insulin‐like growth factors and follicle‐stimulating hormone in the regulation of ovarian antral follicles. Abstract Background The last phase of folliculogenesis is driven by follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) and locally produced insulin‐like growth factors (IGFs), both essential for forming preovulatory follicles.

Effects of diet and/or exercise in enhancing spinal cord sensorimotor learning. [PDF]

, 2012
Given that the spinal cord is capable of learning sensorimotor tasks and that dietary interventions can influence learning involving supraspinal centers, we asked whether the presence of omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the curry spice ...
