Kidney disease impairs tendon function in rats
Abstract figure legend This study demonstrates for the first time that tendon strength is reduced in a rodent model of chronic kidney disease (8 weeks of 0.25% adenine feeding) and confirms concurrent dysfunction in muscle and bone. These findings provide novel characterization of multiple tissues, paving the way for future investigations into the ...

Multi‐Material 3D Printing of Soft Dielectric Actuators With Optimized Electrodes
Multi‐material fused filament fabrication is applied to fully 3D print dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs). Selected 3D printing parameters are varied to optimize the electrode yielding DEAs, which are able to undergo a maximum displacement of 91% with respect to the free length of the actuator.

The molecular architecture of the kidney slit diaphragm
Abstract Vertebrate life depends on renal function to filter excess fluid and remove low molecular-weight waste products. An essential component of the kidney filtration barrier is the slit diaphragm (SD), a specialized cell-cell junction between podocytes.
