Coacervates Made of Elastin‐Like Polypeptides Fused with Melanocyte‐Stimulating Hormone and Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein Enhance Skin Wound Healing in Spinal Cord‐Injured Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Pressure skin wounds are frequent complications after spinal cord injury (SCI), with impaired healing due to vascular and immune deficits. Elastin‐like polypeptides (ELP) fused to α‐MSH (MSH‐ELP) or MCP‐1 (MCP‐ELP) are developed and tested on these wounds. The resulting nanoparticles are non‐toxic and bioactive, and they enhance macrophage recruitment,

Classification of voice qualities

open access: yesJournal of Phonetics, 1986
A total of 473 samples of normal and pathological voices were classified by a group of experienced listeners according to three factors of the Isshiki scale (degree of hoarseness, roughness, breathiness, four point grading). The same material was processed by long-term average spectral analysis (LTAS).
