Electrical pulse stimulation reflecting the episodic nature of real‐life exercise modulates metabolic and secretory profile of primary human myotubes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Here, we introduced an intermittent electrical stimulation protocol mimicking the episodic nature of real‐life exercise in vitro by alternating low‐ and high‐frequency stimulation. In comparison with widely used continuous stimulation, it enhanced the rate of glucose and fatty acid oxidation, but not the myokine release.

Lactoferrin treatment activates acetylcholinesterase, decreasing acetylcholine levels in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell culture supernatants, inhibiting cell survival

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Representation of the suggested mode of action of lactoferrin (Lf) in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Lf induces activation of caspase‐3 by activating p53 and AChE leading to decreased ACh concentrations. In turn, ACh signaling leads to activation of VEGF and AKT and blocking of caspase‐3.

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Effect of Pore Size of Porous-Structured Titanium Implants on Tendon Ingrowth

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2022
Purpose. The reconstruction of a tendon insertion on metal prostheses is a challenge in orthopedics. Of the available metal prostheses, porous metal prostheses have been shown to have better biocompatibility for tissue integration.

Age‐Related Changes in Myeloid Cells and Their Impact on Subcutaneous Melanoma Growth in Mice

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Our findings reveal that age‐related changes in subcutaneous melanoma growth and immunotherapy response are context‐dependent. In models where tumor growth and treatment resistance increase with age, this effect is partly driven by enhanced immunosuppression from myeloperoxidase‐active Gr‐1⁺ myeloid cells.

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 4A1 (PTP4A1) Regulates Early Events in Colorectal Cancer Intraperitoneal Dissemination in the Aged Male Host

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality is highest in aged males. Pre‐clinical data comparing CRC i.p. metastasis in cohorts of young and aged, male and female mice support these finding. Bottom‐up proteomics of peritoneal mesothelial cells identified PTP4A1 as highly expressed in aged males and a role for PTP4A1 in heterotypic cell:cell adhesion was ...

Osteogenic Effects of Ion Released from Biodegradable Metallic Magnesium and Calcium Coating

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study explores how magnesium–calcium coatings on titanium promote osteogenesis by releasing ions and elevating pH during degradation. Using osteoblast‐like cells, the research demonstrates that both ion release and pH changes contribute to cell proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization, offering new insights into the design of bioactive ...

Isotropic porous structure design methods based on triply periodic minimal surfaces

Materials & Design, 2021
Recently, triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) is emerging as an ideal tool to generate porous structures. Yet, most of the current work only focuses on controlling the elastic modulus by the relative density. For special engineering applications, such

Mechanical Behavior and Microstructural Changes Associated with Tensile Deformation above the Martensite Start Temperature during Quenching and Subsequent Partitioning of a Low‐Alloy 37SiB6 Steel

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new experimental setup, incorporating digital image correlation and infrared thermography in combination with inductive‐conductive heating for precise temperature control, is used to analyze the mechanical behavior and microstructural changes of sheet metal under complex thermomechanical test conditions that represent quench and partitioning ...
