Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

SNORD3A Regulates STING Transcription to Promote Ferroptosis in Acute Kidney Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Acute kidney injury (AKI) signifies a sudden and prolonged decline in kidney function characterized by tubular cell death and interstitial inflammation. Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) play pivotal roles in oxidative stress and inflammation, and may play ...

A brief review of the literature on the malignant ureteral obstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO) caused by a primarily urological tumor or secondary to a late-stage malignancy can be difficult for the urologist to manage. Due to a lack of clinical data on the management of MUO, every case is particular and should

Synthetic Antiferromagnetic Designer Nanodisks for High‐Performance Magnetic Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Micromagnetic‐modeling‐based design and scalable fabrication of synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF) magnetic disk particles (MDPs) using sputter deposition enable high‐performance magnetic separation. The SAF MDPs achieve high colloidal stability and magnetic responsiveness and enable efficient magnetic separation, outperforming conventional particles ...

Biomimetic, Suturable, and Extensible Electrospun Scaffolds for Lower Urinary Tract Surgical Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic, suturable, biodegradable fibrous scaffolds are engineered to mimic the tensile properties of LUT tissue using photocrosslinked 5:5% weight per volume elastin‐like peptide and methacrylated gelatin (5E5G). In vitro, urothelium, smooth muscle, and fibroblast 7 day cytocompatibility is demonstrated.

Biofabrication of a Filtration Barrier by Integrating Electrospun Membranes and Flow in a Glomerular Co‐Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An ex vivo glomerular filtration barrier is engineered using electrospun, biomimetic membranes seeded with human glomerular cells. The model supports fenestrated endothelium and podocyte foot processes under flow, mimics size‐selective filtration, and enables disease modeling with hiPSC‐derived podocytes, offering a powerful platform for studying ...

Pathogenesis of AD is similar to that of uremic encephalopathy of Homocysteic acid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Homocysteic acid (HA) has been established as a pathogen in Alzheimer's disease (AD) in 3xTg-AD model mice. However, it is not established whether HA is involved in the AD pathogenesis in humans.
