Participation of the hypophyseal-adrenal cortex system in thrombin clearance during immobilization stress [PDF]
Thrombin marked with I-131 resulted in a considerable increase of the thrombined clearance rate in healthy male rats during stress caused by an immobilization lasting 30 minutes, and in an increase of thrombin clearance occurred by a combination of ...

Endothelial protease-activated receptor 4: impotent or important?
Frontiers in Cardiovascular MedicineThe protease thrombin, which increases its levels with various pathologies, can signal through the G protein-coupled receptors protease-activated receptors 1 and 4 (PAR1/PAR4). PAR1 is a high-affinity receptor for thrombin, whereas PAR4 is a low-affinity

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This study describes the fabrication of arrays of luminal tissue constructs for 3D luminal tissue modeling. An oil or media‐filled reservoir between constructs serves as a liquid barrier or bridge to regulate communication between lumens within the array for modeling multi‐tissue interactions in vitro. Abstract Cell‐lined luminal structures are crucial

Directed Navigation of Magnetotactic Bacteria via Magnetotaxis in a 3D Vasculature‐On‐A‐Chip
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A perfusable vascular network is developed to investigate MTB at the single‐microorganism level. MTB is demonstrated to successfully align and navigate along the magnetic field inside the microvessels. Abstract Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), inherently motile and self‐powered, are promising biorobotic candidates for targeted anti‐cancer drug delivery ...
