Functionalizing Calcium Phosphate Biomaterials with Antibacterial Silver Particles [PDF]

Advanced Materials, 2012
Implant-associated infections are among the most serious post-surgical complications of medical device implants, including prosthetic joints (e.g., hip, knee and shoulder) and fracture fixation hardware.[1,2] Infection rates related to orthopedic implants have been reduced to below 5% owing to strict hygienic protocols and intraoperative systemic ...

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Silver containing calcium phosphate bone cement with Ag/Ca atomic ratio equal to 0.05: synthesis and characterization

To Chemistry Journal, 2019
The introduction of silver into calcium phosphate bone cement (CPC) increases the strength and antimicrobial activity of the material. In this study, we synthesized silver-containing CPC by introducing silver phosphate salt Ag3PO4 in the cement powder ...

An optimized method for extraction and purification of inorganic phosphate from plant material for oxygen isotope ratio analysis

MethodsX
Compound-specific stable isotope ratio analysis of oxygen isotopes in inorganic phosphate can be used to study biological phosphorus cycling and the transformation processes controlling the fate of phosphorus. However, methods for extraction of inorganic

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

Photowritable Silver‐Containing Phosphate Glass Ribbon Fibers [PDF]

Advanced Optical Materials, 2015
Tailored silver‐containing zinc‐phosphate glasses possess excellent thermoviscous ability and optical properties. Beyond they have proven to form a favorable matrix for the direct laser writing of photoluminescent and nonlinear patterns. Here, bringing together the merits of these materials with fiber optic technology, the first photosensitive ...

Data on the femtosecond laser-induced formation of tracks in silver-containing zinc phosphate glass

Data in Brief, 2021
Direct femtosecond laser writing of tracks in the volume of silver-containing zinc phosphate glass is investigated. Tracks were written by the femtosecond laser irradiation with the wavelength of 1030 nm, the pulse duration of 180 fs and a scanning speed

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.
