Perivascular Spaces as Determinants of Amyloid, Tau, and Vascular Biomarker Progression

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐visible enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) are markers of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and aging, processes implicated in both neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular pathologies. However, longitudinal positron emission tomography (PET) studies examining PVS as a mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease ...

Assembly of Bioactive Superstructures via Metal–Phenolic Complexation for Blood Purification

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Bioactive superstructures are assembled via metal–phenolic‐mediated assembly on agarose templates, followed by modification with human serum albumin. These superstructures demonstrate high bilirubin adsorption efficiency, strong antibacterial activity, and anticoagulant activity, providing a strategy for the rational design of multifunctional blood ...

Neurotransmitter‐Defined Degeneration Patterns in Sporadic and C9orf72‐Associated Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Predilection to GABAergic, Serotonergic, Opioid, Glutamatergic, Endocannabinoid, and Microglial Systems—Implications for Therapy Development

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has a markedly distinctive clinical and neuroradiological signature, with the preferential involvement of specific brain networks and the apparent sparing of others. The molecular underpinnings of the strikingly selective anatomical vulnerability have not been fully elucidated to date despite the potential ...

Piezoelectric Nanocomposite Hydrogel for Wireless Neural Stimulation and Tissue Augmentation

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A cell/tissue supporting piezoelectric hydrogel system (PZ‐gel) that incorporates ferroelectric, pyroelectric, and piezoelectric ceramic material barium titanate into an alginate/carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel. The PZ‐gel can be sonoactivated for wireless neural cell and tissue stimulation, with the potential to be used as a stimulatory cell substrate

Technologies for measuring red blood cell deformability.

Lab on a Chip, 2022
Human red blood cells (RBCs) are approximately 8 μm in diameter, but must repeatedly deform through capillaries as small as 2 μm in order to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body.

Microfluidic analysis of red blood cell deformability

Journal of Biomechanics, 2014
A common indicator of rheological dysfunction is a measurable decrease in the deformability of red blood cells (RBCs). Decreased RBC deformability is associated with cellular stress or pathology and can impede the transit of these cells through the microvasculature, where RBCs play a central role in the oxygenation of tissues.

Preparation of packed red blood cell units in the blood bank: Alteration in red blood cell deformability.

Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2020
BACKGROUND Donated blood is stored in the blood bank as packed red blood cell units. In the process of packed cells preparation, the red blood cells (RBCs) are subjectedto high level of shear stress, which can induce alterations in their properties.
