Probiotic‐Based Mineralized Living Materials to Produce Antimicrobial Yogurts

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The self‐assembly and mineralization of collagen in the presence of probiotics produces hybrid living materials that hosts and protects the cells. Intra‐ and interfibrillar mineralization of collagen fibers, as occurring in bone, results, respectively, in a bulk and single‐cell protective layer of cells, that survive in simulated gastric conditions and,

Sterile Neutrino Production Through a Matter Effect Enhancement at Long Baselines [PDF]

open access: yesInt. J. Mod. Phys. A 28, 1350067 (2013), 2011
If sterile neutrinos have a neutral coupling to standard model fermions, matter effect resonant transitions to sterile neutrinos and excess neutral-current events could manifest at long baseline experiments. Assuming a single sterile neutrino with a neutral coupling to fermionic matter, we re-examine bounds on sterile neutrino production at long ...

Extracellular Matrix‐Mediated Crosslinking of Adhesive Hyaluronic Acid Patch for Treating Volumetric Muscle Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a novel strategy for preparing a biocompatible adhesive hydrogel crosslinked with a muscle tissue‐derived extracellular matrix (MEM) for in situ muscle regeneration. As a natural crosslinker, MEM not only mediates combinatorial polymer networks but also stimulates satellite cells to induce a cell‐free therapeutic solution.

Sterility and Reproductive Inhibition of Japanese Quail Induced by Mestranol Ingestion

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1970
Abstract THE sex of mammals has been altered by treating neonatal animals with several steroid sex hormones. There is one report that sexes of birds were altered during a similar stage of development after hatching (Wentworth, 1968). Mazer and Mazer (1939), Bradbury (1947), and Huffman (1941) observed that injection of prepubertal female rats with ...

Universal Hydrogel Carrier Enhances Bone Graft Success: Preclinical and Clinical Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
TX hydrogel improves the delivery of different types of particulate bone grafts, maintaining them at the implantation sites, and resulting in favorable bone regenerative outcomes. Abstract Orthopedic, maxillofacial, and complex dentoalveolar bone grafting procedures that require donor‐site bone harvesting can be associated with post‐surgical ...

Histopathological study on goldfish (Carassius auratus) gonads exposed to tobacco smoke [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Ornamental fish have various positive effects in human life. Due to the effect and importance of aesthetics and artificial reproduction of these fish, which may be enclosed in aquarium environments and come in contact with cigarette smoke, the effects of tobacco smoke on the gonad tissue of goldfish were investigated.

Ovarian Function Restoration with Biomimetic Scaffold Incorporating Angiogenic Molecules and Antioxidant in Chemotherapy‐Induced Perimenopausal Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study developed a biomimetic scaffold incorporating PDRN and melatonin to restore ovarian function in chemotherapy‐induced premature ovarian insufficiency, enhancing cell survival, folliculogenesis, and hormone normalization, while improving fertility rates and offspring in a mouse model, offering a promising strategy for ovarian function ...

The Origin of 2 Sexes Through Optimization of Recombination Entropy Against Time and Energy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
Sexual reproduction in Nature requires two sexes, which raises the question why the reproductive scheme did not evolve to have three or more sexes. Here we construct a constrained optimization model based on the communication theory to analyze trade-offs among reproductive schemes with arbitrary number of sexes.

An In Situ Curing, Shear‐Responsive Biomaterial Designed for Durable Embolization of Microvasculature

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
NeoCast is a next‐generation, solvent‐free, non‐adhesive liquid embolic designed for indications where deep occlusion is desired (e.g., tumors and chronic subdural hematoma). This novel agent offers ideal embolic properties: injectability, controllability, excellent visibility, and biocompatibility.

Asymptotic profiles of basic reproduction number for epidemic spreading in heterogeneous environment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The effect of diffusion rates on the basic reproduction number of a general compartmental reaction-diffusion epidemic model in a heterogeneous environment is considered. It is shown when the diffusion rates tend to zero, the limit of the basic reproduction number is the maximum value of the local reproduction number on the spatial domain.
