Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A new dual‐layer hydrogel barrier for preventing postoperative abdominal adhesions is developed. The inner layer, consisting of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and thioctic acid (TA), enhanced adhesion to moist tissues. The outer layer combines zwitterionic, thermoresponsive hyaluronic acid with anti‐inflammatory epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and forms a ...

Imine Crosslinked, Injectable, and Self‐Healing Fucoidan Hydrogel with Immunomodulatory Properties
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study develops an injectable fucoidan‐based hydrogel with tunable properties for tissue engineering. By oxidizing fucoidan (OFu) to introduce aldehydes, imine crosslinks are formed with amine‐containing polymers, enabling self‐healing, injectability, and long‐term stability (≥28 days). The OFu‐gelatin hydrogel demonstrated biocompatibility, immune‐

Correspondence between time-evolution dynamics of a tumor and an attractively interacting Bose-Einstein Condensate with feeding and dissipation [PDF]
arXiv, 2003 The morphology and time-evolution of tumors are expected to depend heavily on the detailed balance of the overall physics of the cell assembly (e.g., the kinetic pressure, the cell-cell interaction, and the external trapping by the tissue) and the biological processes of mitosis, necrosis, etc.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A mitochondria‐targeted cationic nanoscale metal organic framework shows strong radiotherapy‐radiodynamic therapy effects and selectively releases digitonin in acidic tumor microenvironments to induce disulfidptosis of cancer cells and downregulate immune checkpoints in cancer and T cells, thereby eliciting strong antitumor immunity to effectively ...

A Topological Data Analysis Framework for Quantifying Necrosis in Glioblastomas [PDF]
arXivIn this paper, we introduce a shape descriptor that we call "interior function". This is a Topological Data Analysis (TDA) based descriptor that refines previous descriptors for image analysis. Using this concept, we define subcomplex lacunarity, a new index that quantifies geometric characteristics of necrosis in tumors such as conglomeration ...

Domain Knowledge Based Brain Tumor Segmentation and Overall Survival Prediction [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Automatically segmenting sub-regions of gliomas (necrosis, edema and enhancing tumor) and accurately predicting overall survival (OS) time from multimodal MRI sequences have important clinical significance in diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of gliomas.

Cardiac Organoid Model Inspired Micro‐Robot Smart Patch to Treat Myocardial Infarction
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The heart organoid model exhibits the acidic microenvironment characteristic of myocardial infarction, which emerges as a pivotal force propelling the movement of micro‐robots. These micro‐robots, administered through microneedles, can penetrate deep into the tissue, effectively delivering therapeutic payloads to facilitate heart repair.
