Wearable airbag technology and machine learned models to mitigate falls after stroke (open access)

Wearable airbag technology and machine learned models to mitigate falls after stroke

Article discusses wearable airbag technology that has been designed to detect and mitigate fall impact. However, this technology has not been validated for the stroke population, so authors investigated whether population-specific training data and modeling parameters are required to pre-detect falls in a chronic stroke population.

Detergent-Based Decellularization for Anisotropic Cardiac-Specific Extracellular Matrix Scaffold Generation (open access)

Detergent-Based Decellularization for Anisotropic Cardiac-Specific Extracellular Matrix Scaffold Generation

Article describes how cell-derived extracellular matrix has become increasingly popular in tissue engineering applications due to its ability to provide tailored signals for desirable cellular responses. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of two detergent-based decellularization methods: a combination of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate and a combination of sodium deoxycholate and deoxyribonuclease.

New approach based on enzyme stimulating of peptides for targeting drug resistance breast cancers (open access)

New approach based on enzyme stimulating of peptides for targeting drug resistance breast cancers

Data management plan for the grant, "New approach based on enzyme stimulating of peptides for targeting drug resistance breast cancers." In this project, we propose the development of selective self-assembling peptides that form nanofibers via a self-assembling process upon the action of Eyes absent (EYA) enzyme, specific to drug resistance Triple Negative Breast cancer cells (TNBC). The objectives are: Aim 1: Design and synthesize self-assembling peptide substrates for EYA enzymes; Aim 2:Determining the efficacy of peptide substrates for inhibiting TNBC in spheroid 3D cell cultures. The correlation between the enzyme kinetic and the activity of nanostructures for targeting EYA will be evaluated. Aim 3: The apoptosis response of the TNBC cells will be determined. This study will lead to finding the potent peptide substrate and the effective dose for inhibiting TNBC cells with apoptosis cell death.

Interfacial Zinc Phosphate is the Key to Controlling Biocompatibility of Metallic Zinc Implants (open access)

Interfacial Zinc Phosphate is the Key to Controlling Biocompatibility of Metallic Zinc Implants

Article examines the roles of all major players in the biocompatibility of zinc, i.e., zinc phosphate (ZnP), zinc oxide (ZnO), zinc hydroxide (Zn(OH)2), pH, and Zn2+.
