Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Scaffolds to Engineer the Dormant Landscape of Microscopic Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Decellularized liver extracellular matrix scaffolds provide a platform to study dormant liver‐metastatic colorectal cancer. They induce reversible dormancy, in combination with nutrient depletion and low dose chemotherapy, through cell cycle arrest and chemotherapy resistance.

Seeing inside the Body Using Wearable Sensing and Imaging Technologies

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores wearable technologies for noninvasive internal health monitoring. It categorizes approaches into indirect sensing (e.g., bioelectrical and biochemical signals) and direct imaging (e.g., wearable ultrasound and EIT), highlighting multimodal integration and system‐level innovation toward personalized, continuous healthcare.

Viewpoints on apornictic and sexual reproduction in angiosperms

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Gametophytic apomixis implies different changes of the reproductive cycle of sexual plants. Each of these "elements of apomixis" occurs in sexual plants, which may even display functional diploid parthenogenesis.

Sexual Plant Reproduction [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2011
Flowering plants are the most successful group of land plants, containing over 90 % of species and dominating almost every terrestrial ecosystem. This evolutionary success is due, in part, to their sophisticated reproductive biology centred on the eponymous flower, where female gametophytes are hidden and protected by the sporophyte carpel/pistil ...

The optimal balance between sexual and asexual reproduction in variable environments: a systematic review

open access: yes, 2016
Many plant species have two modes of reproduction: sexual and asexual. Both modes of reproduction have often been viewed as adaptations to temporally or spatially variable environments.
