Addition of Laponite to gelatin methacryloyl bioinks improves the rheological properties and printability to create mechanically tailorable cell culture matrices

Extrusion-based bioprinting has gained widespread popularity in biofabrication due to its ability to assemble cells and biomaterials in precise patterns and form tissue-like constructs. To achieve this, bioinks must have rheological properties suitable for printing while maintaining cytocompatibility.

Advances in cancer mechanobiology: Metastasis, mechanics, and materials

Within the tumor microenvironment (TME), tumor cells are exposed to numerous mechanical forces, both internally and externally, which contribute to the metastatic cascade. From the initial growth of the tumor to traveling through the vasculature and to the eventual colonization of distant organs, tumor cells are continuously interacting with their surroundings through physical contact and mechanical force application.

Toward innovative approaches for exploring the mechanically regulated tumor-immune microenvironment

Within the complex tumor microenvironment, cells experience mechanical cues—such as extracellular matrix stiffening and elevation of solid stress, interstitial fluid pressure, and fluid shear stress—that significantly impact cancer cell behavior and immune responses. Recognizing the significance of these mechanical cues not only sheds light on cancer progression but also holds promise for identifying potential biomarkers that would predict therapeutic outcomes.

The mechanobiology of biomolecular condensates

The central goal of mechanobiology is to understand how the mechanical forces and material properties of organelles, cells, and tissues influence biological processes and functions. Since the first description of biomolecular condensates, it was hypothesized that they obtain material properties that are tuned to their functions inside cells. T

On the reversibility of amyloid fibril formation

Amyloids are elongated supramolecular protein self-assemblies. Their formation is a non-covalent assembly process and as such is fully reversible. Amyloid formation is associated with several neurodegenerative diseases, and the reversibility is key to maintaining the healthy state. Reversibility is also key to the performance of fibril-based biomaterials and functional amyloids. T

Toward universal models for collective interactions in biomolecular condensates

A wide range of higher-order structures, including dense, liquid-like assemblies, serve as key components of cellular matter. The molecular language of how protein sequences encode the formation and biophysical properties of biomolecular condensates, however, is not completely understood.

Emerging trends in functional molecularly imprinted polymers for electrochemical detection of biomarkers

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), functioning as artificial bioreceptors, hold significant promise for biomarker detection in healthcare, disease diagnosis, and addressing drug abuse. In contrast to natural bioreceptors, MIP-based sensors offer numerous advantages, such as high stability, cost-effectiveness, high selectivity, sensitivity, and notably straightforward preparation with customizable binding sites for diverse targets.

Microfluidic supercritical CO2 applications: Solvent extraction, nanoparticle synthesis, and chemical reaction

Supercritical CO2⁠, known for its non-toxic, non-flammable and abundant properties, is well-perceived as a green alternative to hazardous organic solvents. It has attracted considerable interest in food, pharmaceuticals, chromatography, and catalysis fields. When supercritical CO2 is integrated into microfluidic systems, it offers several advantages compared to conventional macro-scale supercritical reactors.

Microfluidic paper analytic device (μPAD) technology for food safety applications

Foodborne pathogens, food adulterants, allergens, and toxic chemicals in food can cause major health hazards to humans and animals. Stringent quality control measures at all stages of food processing are required to ensure food safety. There is, therefore, a global need for affordable, reliable, and rapid tests that can be conducted at different process steps and processing sites, spanning the range from the sourcing of food to the end-product acquired by the consumer.

Drug-eluting contact lenses: Progress, challenges, and prospects

Topical ophthalmic solutions (eye drops) are becoming increasingly popular in treating and preventing ocular diseases for their safety, noninvasiveness, and ease of handling. However, the static and dynamic barriers of eyes cause the extremely low bioavailability (<5%) of eye drops, making ocular therapy challenging.

Fungal mycelia: From innovative materials to promising products: Insights and challenges

In transitioning toward a sustainable economy, mycelial materials are recognized for their adaptability, biocompatibility, and eco-friendliness. This paper updates the exploration of mycelial materials, defining their scope and emphasizing the need for precise terminology.

Cellular effects and orientation of immobilized immunoglobulin are correlated to the charge-mediated influence of the antibody variable region

Ligand binding to a cell receptor often insufficiently triggers cellular immune responses. Receptor clustering through cross-linking occurs when a ligand binds to two or more receptors, amplifying cellular responses. This is required in certain monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including effector mechanism activation [binding to fragment crystallizable receptors (FcRs)] or acting as agonists for therapeutic signaling.
