Adaptive Elastin‐Like Hydrogel with Unidirectional and Controllable Anisotropic Actuation for Soft Robotics and Tissue Engineering

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 17, September 4, 2025.
Fiber‐reinforced elastin‐like tubular scaffolds are engineered to achieve anisotropic and reversible actuation under external stimuli. By adjusting fiber's angle, actuation behavior is finely tuned, enabling distinct actuation responses, even within different regions of the same scaffold.

The role of the endogenous opioid system in modulating orthodontic‐induced neurogenic inflammation of the dental pulp: A comprehensive review of the literature

International Endodontic Journal, Volume 58, Issue 8, Page 1126-1145, August 2025.
Abstract Background Orthodontic forces may lead to neurogenic inflammation in the dental pulp by triggering the release of somatosensory neuropeptides such as Substance P (SP), Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) and Neurokinin A (NKA). In the vast majority of patients, acute symptoms are not triggered, probably due to the control of the neurogenic ...

Therapeutic effects of sphingosine kinase inhibitor N,N-dimethylsphingosine (DMS) in experimental chronic Chagas disease cardiomyopathy

Scientific Reports, 2017
Chagas disease cardiomyopathy is a parasite-driven inflammatory disease to which there are no effective treatments. Here we evaluated the therapeutic potential of N,N-dimethylsphingosine(DMS), which blocks the production of sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P ...

Biohybrid Vascular Graft Made of Textile‐Reinforced Elastin‐Like Recombinamers and Its Preservation via Drying Processes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 15, 10 June, 2025.
Clinical translation of biohybrid medical implants requires the previous implementation of drying schemes that can facilitate their sterilization and storage. This study addresses that critical aspect and elucidates the impact of drying on biohybrid vascular grafts, highlighting the need for implant‐specific drying strategies to ensure safety ...

Transplantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells decreases seizure incidence, mitigates neuronal loss and modulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production in epileptic rats

Neurobiology of Disease, 2012
Approximately 30% of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy do not respond to treatment with antiepileptic drugs. We have previously shown that transplantation of mononuclear bone marrow cells (BMC) has an anticonvulsant effect in acute epilepsy ...

Insulin resistance, overweight, and obesity in apheresis donors: A call to reevaluate their eligibility—A prospective cohort study

Transfusion, Volume 65, Issue 6, Page 1072-1082, June 2025.
Abstract Background Apheresis procedures and the infusion of acid‐citrate‐dextrose induce metabolic alterations that may influence glucose metabolism. Although insulin resistance (IR), overweight, and obesity are not exclusion criteria for blood donation, their impact during apheresis procedure and on post‐donation metabolic responses remains ...
