Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Lewy bodies are surrounded by granulovacuolar degeneration bodies in dementia with Lewy bodies
Here, we report Lewy bodies (LBs) to be enriched for tau‐laden granulovacuolar degeneration bodies (GVBs), suggesting a potential mechanistic interface between α‐synuclein and tau pathology in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Abstract Lewy bodies (LBs), composed primarily of aggregated α‐synuclein (α‐syn), are the pathological hallmark of Lewy body ...
