Impact of wet-dry cycling on the phase behavior and compartmentalization properties of complex coacervates

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Wet-dry cycling is thought to have enabled the production of molecular building blocks of life. Here, the authors investigate the impact of dehydration/rehydration on RNA-containing complex coacervates, which are membraneless compartments formed by phase

Spheroid‐On‐A‐Drop: A Modular Droplet Microfluidics Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The proposed Spheroid‐on‐a‐Drop platform represents a reproducible and tunable platform for the fabrication of biocompatible GelMA‐based microgels, able to support controlled 3D tumor spheroid culture. Its precise control over droplet dynamics and cell distribution paves the way for advanced applications in tissue modeling, drug screening, and ...

Reducing deaths from diarrhoea through oral rehydration therapy

open access: yesBulletin of the World Health Organization, 2000
In 1980, diarrhoea was the leading cause of child mortality, accounting for 4.6 million deaths annually. Efforts to control diarrhoea over the past decade have been based on multiple, potentially powerful interventions implemented more or less ...

Multifunctional Adhesive Hydrogel for Rapid Cardiac Hemostasis and Antibacterial Protection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A multifunctional polyacrylamide/gelatin/tannic acid hydrogel (PGT) is presented for rapid cardiac hemostasis under wet, dynamic conditions. Surface tannic acid coating enables instantaneous wet adhesion, accelerates coagulation, and confers antibacterial activity within a single platform.

The molecular basis for control of ETEC enterotoxin expression in response to environment and host. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) cause severe diarrhoea in humans and neonatal farm animals. Annually, 380,000 human deaths, and multi-million dollar losses in the farming industry, can be attributed to ETEC infections.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Genome‐Wide CRISPR Screen Identifies a microRNA Orchestrating Pleiotropic Resistance to Targeted Therapy and T Cell Immunity in Melanoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A genome‐wide microRNA CRISPR screen identifies miR‐18a as a master regulator of cross‐resistance in melanoma. Loss of miR‐18a activates the AJUBA–YAP/Hippo axis to confer BRAFi resistance and enhances THBS1–CD47 interaction to impair CD8+ T cell immunity. hnRNP A1 is identified as an upstream regulator of miR‐18a processing.
