Adhesion and neurite development of cortical neurons on micropatterns of polyethylenimine and fluorcarbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This study aims on the preparation of isolated islands of cortical neurons on modified glass surfaces. Isolated islands of cortical neurons were obtained with a combination of neuron-adhesive polyethylenimine (PEI) and neuron-repellent plasma-deposited ...

Tuning the kinetics of cadherin adhesion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cadherins are Ca(2+)-dependent cell-cell adhesion proteins that maintain the structural integrity of the epidermis; their principle function is to resist mechanical force.

Tissue adhesives in ophthalmology

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ophthalmology and Research, 2013
Tissue glue is increasingly becoming a choice of material as an adjuvant to surgical wound closure in ophthalmology. Each of the type of glue is unique in terms of its advantages as well as limitations and so is used in different indications. Although the presently available tissue adhesives are good enough for the procedures mentioned, there is still ...

Effect of adhesion geometry and rigidity on cellular force distributions

open access: yes, 2009
The behaviour and fate of tissue cells is controlled by the rigidity and geometry of their adhesive environment, possibly through forces localized to sites of adhesion.

Adhesive and mechanical regulation of mesenchymal stem cell differentiation in human bone marrow and periosteum-derived progenitor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It has previously been demonstrated that cell shape can influence commitment of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMCs) to adipogenic, osteogenic, chondrogenic, and other lineages.

The Fabrication and Integration of a 15 MHz Array Within a Biopsy Needle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
It is proposed that integrating ultrasound transducer arrays at the tip of tools such as biopsy needles could enable valuable, real-time image feedback during interventional procedures.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Guided Tissue Remineralization of Resin-Bonded Acid-Etched Dentin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Contemporary biomineralization strategies incorporate non-classical crystallization pathways of fluidic amorphous nanoprecursors and mesoscopic transformation.

Probing the luminal microenvironment of reconstituted epithelial microtissues. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Polymeric microparticles can serve as carriers or sensors to instruct or characterize tissue biology. However, incorporating microparticles into tissues for in vitro assays remains a challenge.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
