A Novel Core–Shell Hydrogel 3D Model for Studying Macrophage Mechanosensing and Foreign Body Giant Cell Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials is primarily driven by macrophages, which often fuse into destructive foreign body giant cells (FBGCs). To address the limited understanding of FBGC formation, a novel microscale core–shell hydrogel 3D model is developed using heterogeneous alginate‐collagen microcapsules with varying stiffness, offering ...

Revealing the Fate of Exoplanet Systems: Asteroseismic Identification of Host Star in the Red Clump or Red Giant Branch

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Determining the evolutionary stage of stars is crucial for understanding the evolution of exoplanetary systems. In this context, red giant branch (RGB) and red clump (RC) stars, which formed at stages in the later evolution of stars situated before and ...

A case of giant condyloma latum in vulvar and perianal areas [PDF]

open access: yesXin yixue
Condyloma latum is a typical lesion of secondary syphilis,which usually appears in the vicinity of the initial chancre. It is found that treponema pallidum load in condyloma latum is significantly higher than that in other secondary syphilis. We report a

Vibration‐Mediated Recovery of Irradiated Osteocytes and Their Regulatory Role in Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy damages bone and disrupts osteocyte function, yet mechanically mediated protection remains largely unexplored. This study demonstrates that low‐magnitude, high‐frequency (LMHF) vibration mitigates irradiated osteocyte apoptosis, restores their ability to regulate breast cancer extravasation, and acts synergistically with radiotherapy to ...

Testing the cores of first ascent red-giant stars using the period spacing of g modes

open access: yes, 2015
In the context of the determination of stellar properties using asteroseismology, we study the influence of rotation and convective-core overshooting on the properties of red-giant stars.

Functionalized Reduced Graphene Oxide‐Based Nanocomposite Hydrogels for Enhanced Osteogenesis in Bone Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Charge‐opposed reduced graphene oxide fillers are co‐integrated into biopolymeric nanocomposite scaffolds, synergistically enhance osteogenesis. Multiscale characterization reveals how surface chemistry and porosity dictate ectopic mineral architecture.

The Red Giant Branch Bump

open access: yes, 2003
We present a comparison between theoretical models and the observed magnitude difference between the horizontal branch and the red giant branch bump for a sample of 53 clusters. We find a general agreement, though some discrepancy is still present at the two extremes of the metallicity range of globular clusters.

Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses: A Powerful Tool in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work is a comprehensive revision of bioactive glasses (BGs), pioneered by Prof. L.L. Hench, which are key in bone repair and regenerative medicine. Sol–gel methods and mesoporous designs enhanced their bioactivity, ions, and drug delivery. BGs now support gene therapy and 3D‐printed scaffolds, enabling personalized, multifunctional treatments in ...

Proteus mirabilis from Captive Giant Pandas and Red Pandas Carries Diverse Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Virulence Genes Associated with Mobile Genetic Elements

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Proteus mirabilis is a zoonotic pathogen that poses a growing threat to both animal and human health due to rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR). It is widely found in animals, including China’s nationally protected captive giant and red pandas.
