Microfluidic Spinning of PEDOT:PSS Microfibers for Nerve Guidance Conduits
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This publication explores the fabrication of microfluidically spun PEDOT:PSS microfibers for conductive nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). It details the spinning process, fiber characterization, and biocompatibility assessment. The study highlights the fibers' mechanical and electrical properties, non‐cytotoxicity, and potential for nerve regeneration or

arXiv, 2014 In this paper, spindle starshaped sets are introduced and investigated, which apart from normalization form an everywhere dense subfamily within the family of starshaped sets. We focus on proving spindle starshaped analogues of recent theorems of Bobylev, Breen, Toranzos, and Zamfirescu on starshaped sets.

The mitotic spindle in the one-cell C. elegans embryo is positioned with high precision and stability [PDF]
, 2016 Precise positioning of the mitotic spindle is important for specifying the plane of cell division, which in turn determines how the cytoplasmic contents are partitioned into the daughter cells, and how the daughters are positioned within the tissue. During metaphase in the early C.

Mitotic cell death induction by targeting the mitotic spindle with tubulin-inhibitory indole derivative molecules [PDF]
, 2017 Tubulin-targeting molecules are widely used cancer therapeutic agents. They inhibit microtubule-based structures, including the mitotic spindle, ultimately preventing cell division.

Gap junction plasticity can lead to spindle oscillations [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Patterns of waxing and waning oscillations, called spindles, are observed in multiple brain regions during sleep. Spindle are thought to be involved in memory consolidation. The origin of spindle oscillations is ongoing work but experimental results point towards the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) as a likely candidate.

Mechanical stability of bipolar spindle assembly [PDF]
, 2016 Assembly and stability of mitotic spindle is governed by the interplay of various intra-cellular forces, e.g. the forces generated by motor proteins by sliding overlapping anti-parallel microtubules (MTs) polymerized from the opposite centrosomes, the interaction of kinetochores with MTs, and the interaction of MTs with the chromosomes arms.

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.
