Tribocatalytically-active nickel/cobalt phosphorous films for universal protection in a hydrocarbon-rich environment (open access)

Tribocatalytically-active nickel/cobalt phosphorous films for universal protection in a hydrocarbon-rich environment

Article describes how high-contact stresses generated at the sliding interfaces during their relative movement provide a unique combination of local heating and shear- and load-induced compression conditions. The authors of the article employ the electrodeposition process to design a coating composed of a hard cobalt-phosphorous matrix with the inclusion of tribocatalytically-active nickel clusters.

Nanotopographical Cues Tune the Therapeutic Potential of Extracellular Vesicles for the Treatment of Aged Skeletal Muscle Injuries (open access)

Nanotopographical Cues Tune the Therapeutic Potential of Extracellular Vesicles for the Treatment of Aged Skeletal Muscle Injuries

Article describes how skeletal muscle regeneration relies on the tightly temporally regulated lineage progression of muscle stem/progenitor cells (MPCs) from activation to proliferation and finally, differentiation. The authors developed an engineering strategy to tune the therapeutic potential of EVs using nanotopographical cues.
