Cell Surface Thiol Engineering Mechanoregulates Myogenic Differentiation via the FAK–PI3K–AKT Axis
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Schematic diagram illustrating how cell surface modification of skeletal muscle progenitor cells through TCEP treatment reveals enhanced cell adhesion, intracellular tension, and myogenesis at 19.66 kPa stiffness, leading to optimal cell fusion. In contrast, no significant changes are observed in the softer (10.61 kPa) or stiffer (49.4 kPa) matrices ...

Differential Phase Contrast Imaging to Predict MSC Immune Function
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work employs quantitative differential phase contrast (qDPC) imaging technique to non‐invasively extract morphological features from live Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) for single cell prediction on cell immunomodulatory capacity. This work establishes a foundation for scalable, non‐destructive monitoring of MSCs immunomodulatory capacity ...

The temporal response of bone to unloading [PDF]
Rats were suspended by their tails with the forelimbs bearing the weight load to simulate the weightlessness of space flight. Growth in bone mass ceased by 1 week in the hindlimbs and lumbar vertebrae in growing rats, while growth in the forelimbs and ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials is primarily driven by macrophages, which often fuse into destructive foreign body giant cells (FBGCs). To address the limited understanding of FBGC formation, a novel microscale core–shell hydrogel 3D model is developed using heterogeneous alginate‐collagen microcapsules with varying stiffness, offering ...

Recent origin of low trabecular bone density in modern humans [PDF]
, 2014 Humans are unique, compared with our closest living relatives (chimpanzees) and early fossil hominins, in having an enlarged body size and lower limb joint surfaces in combination with a relatively gracile skeleton (i.e., lower bone mass for our body ...

Highly Variable Genomic Landscape of Endogenous Retroviruses in the C57BL/6J Inbred Strain, Depending on Individual Mouse, Gender, Organ Type, and Organ Location. [PDF]
, 2017 Transposable repetitive elements, named the "TREome," represent ~40% of the mouse genome. We postulate that the germ line genome undergoes temporal and spatial diversification into somatic genomes in conjunction with the TREome activity.

At the Pointy End of Mechanobiology: AFM for Transient Biomechanical Analysis
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Stem cell mechanosensitivity governs lineage commitment through mechanotransduction, but capturing these transient changes in living cells remains challenging. Advanced atomic force microscopy enables high‐resolution analysis of mechanical properties, real‐time protein distribution, and gene expression, offering fresh insights into cell‐environment ...
