Conventional techniques, such as the Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) Test and Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Test, measure blood glucose levels, which fluctuate over time and are insensitive to early stages. In this study, we focus on measuring the mechanical properties of red blood cells, as their irreversible changes can indicate early pathological impacts of diabetes. We developed a microfluidic chip with a symmetrical hyperbolic structure. By periodically altering the state of the valve membrane, we generate a reciprocating shear flow field that repeatedly acts on groups of RBCs. We then quantify the morphological parameters of the RBCs, establishing a correlation between the reciprocating shear flow field and the morphological changes of the cells. Using the developed microfluidic chip, we investigated the resistance of blood cells from 20 healthy volunteers to mechanical stimuli. The results indicated a significant correlation between the deformability of red blood cells and age, while no such correlation was found among individuals of the same gender. This study highlights the potential of utilizing the mechanical properties of red blood cells as an early diagnostic tool for diabetes. Furthermore, given the ease of integration of microfluidic chips, they present a promising high-throughput diagnostic solution for large-scale clinical screening.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100900,"journal":{"name":"Mechanobiology in Medicine","volume":"3 3","pages":"Article 100136"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144242828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many TBI studies aim to understand further the mechanism by which cells in the brain respond to the mechanical forces associated with TBI. In particular, mild TBI is the most common level of injury among TBI patients, and the reactivity of glial cells is a key mechanism in understanding mild TBI. However, there is a lack of studies focusing on oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). OPCs respond to the injury by migration, proliferation, and differentiation into oligodendrocytes (OL) to assist in post-injury repair. Given their ability to proliferate and differentiate, OPCs are a promising therapeutic target for OL regeneration. Despite their important role in maintaining normal neuronal functions, the response of OPCs to mechanical insult remains poorly understood. Thus, this study aims to elucidate the cellular responses of OPCs using a brain-tissue mimicking <em>in vitro</em> 3D hydrogel platform to identify key signaling pathways driving their response. In this study, we applied a high-rate pressure wave to OPCs to induce mild TBI and assess subsequent cellular and molecular responses by quantifying cell growth, metabolic activity, and gene and protein expression. Although the high-rate mechanical insult did not significantly impact cell survival, it induced transcriptomic and proteomic changes in molecular targets related to OPC proliferation and maturation, including <em>PDGFRA</em>, <em>GALC</em>, CTNNB1, and HSP90AB. These dysregulations and altered molecular profiles provide valuable insights into the OPC injury response and may serve as potential therapeutic targets for treating neurodegeneration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100900,"journal":{"name":"Mechanobiology in Medicine","volume":"3 3","pages":"Article 100126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144169323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

AGEs can also impair bone cell homeostasis via the receptor for AGEs (RAGE). To investigate the effects of diabetes, AGE accumulation, and RAGE signaling on mouse cortical bone, we utilized male and female leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) diabetic mice from three age groups ranging from 3 to 12 months of age, which were crossed with mice carrying constitutively active alleles for a RAGE nullifying point mutation (RAGE<sup>−/−</sup>). The morphological, mechanical and material outcomes of bone were measured using microCT, three-point bending, and AGE assays. We observed significant impairments dependent on age and sex to the bone matrix and whole-bone mechanical behavior due to diabetes, with some impairments alleviated by the deletion of RAGE. In older female diabetic mice, the removal of RAGE signaling prevented the deficits in bone mechanics, morphology, and tissue mineral density (TMD). Male diabetic mice without RAGE signaling exhibited improved material properties compared to wild type controls. The study demonstrated that bone impairments associated with T2D can be prevented with RAGE deletion, and T2D complications may be partially reversible with the therapeutic inhibition of RAGE signaling.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100900,"journal":{"name":"Mechanobiology in Medicine","volume":"3 3","pages":"Article 100132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144169054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
