Transmission electron microscopy characterisation of Spirulina bioplastics

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Plastic pollution is impacting global ecosystem health. Bioplastics made from unprocessed biomass, including whole or fragmented tissues, are one potential solution. They are biodegradable and exhibit competitive mechanical performance. Seaweed and microalgae have gained popularity over the last decade as bioplastic feedstocks due to their ...

Reconstruction of native cellular microanatomy in a novel bioengineered full thickness human nasal mucosal construct

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Bioengineered tissue constructs are vital technologies employed in in vitro testing of both fundamental biological principles and industrial screening practices. Current approaches to modelling the nasal mucosa in vitro are not representative and are associated with limitations that impact their reliability and predictive value.

Comprehensive and Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of the Cell Wall Stress Response in Bacillus subtilis

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Transcriptional profiling of the primary cell envelope stress response (CESR) of Bacillus subtilis exposed to a range of cell wall‐targeting antimicrobials, combining RNAseq and high‐resolution tiling arrays. We revealed the complexity of the CESR, the contribution of extracytoplasmic function sigma factors (ECFs) and two‐component signal transduction ...

Clinicopathological and Prognostic Features of Pleomorphic Adenoma, Recurrent Pleomorphic Adenoma, and Carcinoma ex Pleomorphic Adenoma: A 20‐Year Retrospective Analysis

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common salivary gland tumor, and a subset may recur as recurrent PA (RPA) or progress to carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA). However, comparative evaluations of their biological behavior and prognostic factors remain limited.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...
