Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

The effect of 12 weeks of intermittent aerobic exercise on endothelin-1 concentration of plasma in adult rats

فصلنامه دانشگاه علوم پزشکی جهرم, 2013
Introduction: Endothelin is a vasoconstrictor which is released from the endothelium. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of intermittent aerobic exercise on the endothelin-1 concentration of plasma as an important indicator of ...

Beacon-like immunoreactivity in the hypothalamus of Sprague–Dawley rats

, 2002
Distribution of the novel peptide beacon in the hypothalamus of Sprague-Dawley rats was examined by immunohistochemical methods. Beacon-immunoreactive (irBC) neurons were found in the paraventricular, supraoptic, and accessory neurosecretory nuclei, and ...

Combating Inflammation and Promoting Anabolism in Osteoarthritic Cartilage Defect With an MMP13‐Sensing Dual‐Drug Scaffold

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread degenerative joint condition marked by progressive cartilage breakdown, and a chronic inflammatory microenvironment, where conventional therapies largely fail to halt disease progression. To address this unmet need, an intra‐articularly implantable, disease‐responsive scaffold was developed for combinatorial

BAP31 Drives Cartilage Calcification through Disruption of Autophagosome–Lysosome Fusion in Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical stress activates BAP31 in chondrocytes. BAP31 competes with ATG14 for binding to STX17, disrupting the STX17–ATG14 complex required for autophagosome–lysosome fusion. The resultant autophagic flux blockade drives the generation of autophagy‐derived exosomes, which mediate pathological cartilage calcification in OA. Chondrocyte‐targeted BAP31

Agonistic Postures Elicited by Subdermal Shock in Sprague-Dawley and Long-Evans Rats

, 1975
Different agonistic postures were elicited by subdermal shock in Long-Evans and Sprague-Dawley rats. 0-, 1-, 2-, and 3-mA shocks were used. All postures were reliably identified by independent observers at greater than chance levels, although absolute ...

A Critical Time Window of Neocortex Modulation for Remote Fear Memory in Rats and Humans

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a delayed consolidation window around 18 h after fear learning in the mPFC essential for remote fear memory. VTA dopaminergic input during this window sustains remote memory in rats, while non‐invasive stimulation of homologous human mPFC at the corresponding time selectively weakens remote but not recent fear memory, revealing a ...
