Porous Decellularized Nerve Grafts Facilitate Recellularization and Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Model of Critical Long‐Gap Peripheral Nerve Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A decellularized nerve graft (DNG) is modified to generate a porous DNG (PDNG). The PDNG is used to repair a 30‐mm peripheral nerve injury (PNI) defect, and is compared with isograft, serving as the standard, and DNG, a widely used alternative. The result shows that PDNG facilitated nerve regeneration in long‐gap PNI, evidenced by better‐aligned axonal

Evolution and Diversity of the Antimicrobial Resistance Associated Mobilome in Streptococcus suis: A Probable Mobile Genetic Elements Reservoir for Other Streptococci

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Streptococcus suis is a previously neglected, newly emerging multidrug-resistant zoonotic pathogen. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) play a key role in intra- and interspecies horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) determinants.

Mechanical Reinforced and Self‐healing Hydrogels: Bioprinted Biomimetic Methacrylated Collagen Peptide‐Xanthan Gum Constructs for Ligament Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Readily UV‐curing and self‐healing methacrylated collagen peptide (COPMA) hydrogels are developed with tunable mechanical properties. As the interpenetrating network between COPMA and xanthan gum (XG), COPMA‐XG bioinks show improved mechanical properties, printability, and stability, compared to COPMA or XG.

Hydrogel‐Mediated Preservation of Live Tumor Explants for Drug Development in Peritoneal Metastases

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a hyaluronan‐based hydrogel platform preserving the native tumor microenvironment (morphology, tissue composition, histology) of patient‐derived explants from peritoneal metastases, enabling clinically relevant drug screening. Hydrogel properties such as stiffness and degradation are crucial for longer‐term histoculture.

De Novo Design of Integrin α5β1 Modulating Proteins to Enhance Biomaterial Properties

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
NeoNectins are de novo‐designed miniproteins that selectively bind and stabilize the extended open form of integrin α5β1. When grafted onto biomaterials including hydrogel and titanium, they promote cell attachment and spreading in vitro and promoting tissue integration and bone growth in animal models, demonstrating broad potential for regenerative ...

Streptococcus pyogenes adhesion and colonization

FEBS Letters, 2016
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A Streptococcus, GAS) is a human‐adapted pathogen responsible for a wide spectrum of disease. GAS can cause relatively mild illnesses, such as strep throat or impetigo, and less frequent but severe life‐threatening diseases ...

Genome signatures, self-organizing maps and higher order phylogenies: a parametric analysis [PDF]

, 2007
Genome signatures are data vectors derived from the compositional statistics of DNA. The self-organizing map (SOM) is a neural network method for the conceptualisation of relationships within complex data, such as genome signatures.
