Acacetin reduces endoplasmic reticulum stress through the P‐eNOS/PERK signaling pathway to attenuate MGO‐induced vascular endothelial cell dysfunction

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated a potential protective effect of acacetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, against methylglyoxal (MGO)‐induced endothelial dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and its mechanism of action. Acacetin can could inhibit MGO‐induced intracellular calcium ion influx, enhance the expression levels of phosphorylated ...

Chromatic Confocal Tomography [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Confocal microscopy is the backbone of cellular research labs across the world but unfortunately, the imaging is restricted to a single plane. Chromatic confocal microscopy offers the possibility to image multiple planes simultaneously thus providing a manifold increase in the imaging speed whereas eliminating the need for z-axis scanning.

Soman induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis of cerebral organoids via the GRP78‐ATF6‐CHOP signaling pathway

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids were employed as a novel model to explore the neurotoxicity of soman. Soman inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity, increased cell apoptosis and upregulated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers glucose‐regulated protein 78 (GRP78), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP).

Dark-field light scattering microscope with focus stabilization [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
We present detailed design and operation instructions for a single-objective inverted microscope. Our design is suitable for two dark-field modes of operation: 1- total internal reflection scattering, and 2- cross-polarization backscattering. The user can switch between the two modes by exchanging one mode-steering element, which is also adapted to the

Regulating Protein Immobilization During Cell‐Free Protein Synthesis in Hyaluronan Microgels

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Bifunctional microgels carrying a linear DNA template and Ni2+‐activated NTA moieties are used as platform for cell‐free protein synthesis and in situ protein immobilization. By varying the concentration of NTA moieties in the microgels, the amount of GFP‐His immobilized inside the microgel and released to the microgel environment can be regulated ...

Multiview Scattering Scanning Imaging Confocal Microscopy through a Multimode Fiber [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Confocal and multiphoton microscopy are effective techniques to obtain high-contrast images of 2-D sections within bulk tissue. However, scattering limits their application to depths only up to ~1 millimeter. Multimode fibers make excellent ultrathin endoscopes that can penetrate deep inside the tissue with minimal damage.

Novel Biologically Active Glass Fiber Functionalized Using Magnesium Phosphate Cement Promotes Bone and Vascular Regeneration

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
In this study, a new type of bioactive glass fiber ‐based composite magnesium phosphate bone cement is prepared and verified that its mechanical strength and biological properties. In addition, the cement may have played a biologically active role in the Notch and HIF signaling pathways.

Monitoring and Maintaining Laser Surface Texture Quality Based on Acoustic and Optical Process Emissions during Direct Laser Interference Patterning

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Acoustic emissions during direct laser interference patterning are shown to strongly correlate with surface texture depth. By implementing a closed‐loop control system utilizing acoustic feedback, consistent microstructures with uniform depth are achieved despite laser power fluctuations.

Twin-Photon Confocal Microscopy [PDF]

, 2010
A recently introduced two-channel confocal microscope with correlated detection promises up to 50% improvement in transverse spatial resolution [Simon, Sergienko, Optics Express {\bf 18}, 9765 (2010)] via the use of photon correlations. Here we achieve similar results in a different manner, introducing a triple-confocal correlated microscope which ...
