However, the complex nature and the intricate interplay of biochemical and biomechanical factors that regulate the mvBM functional dynamics make it difficult to study. Here, we present a novel and highly tunable in vitro model of the human mvBM, enabling a bottom‐up approach to assemble a composite model of the microvascular wall and explore microvascular dynamics and interactions with circulating neutrophils in real time. An electrospun polyethylene glycol (PEG)‐based fibrillar network mimics the mvBM with adjustable nanofiber diameter, orientation, and density. The fidelity of the model to the human mvBM's topography and mechanics was verified through second harmonic generation imaging and atomic force microscopy. PEG was functionalized with bioactive moieties to enable endothelial cell (EC) and pericyte (PC) attachment, through which neutrophil interactions with the microvascular wall model were observed. The model, coupled with 4D microscopy, revealed nuanced and dynamic neutrophil behavior when interacting with the microvascular wall, demonstrating its utility in characterizing cell–cell interactions. As such, the model can be employed in the exploration of inflammatory and microvascular‐related diseases. Therefore, this innovative approach represents a significant advancement in vascular biology research, holding profound implications for understanding mvBM dynamics in both health and disease.","PeriodicalId":9263,"journal":{"name":"Bioengineering & Translational Medicine","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143607891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Caregivers ranked CandyCollect as a good sampling method overall (27/30), and all caregivers (30/30) would recommend CandyCollect for children 5 years and older. Twenty‐three of 30 children “really like” the taste and 24/30 would prefer to use CandyCollect if a future test were needed. All caregivers (30/30) and most children (28/30) would be willing to use CandyCollect at home.ConclusionAll participants tested positive for GAS on all three collection methods (pharyngeal swab, mouth swab, and CandyCollect).

The late clinical diagnosis, genomic tumor heterogeneity, high complexity of the gastrointestinal tumor microenvironment, along with increasing treatment resistance have been recognized as the main contributing factors to the current inadequacy of the clinical interventions and poor prognosis of the gastrointestinal cancer patients. In the coming years, gastrointestinal cancer‐related global mortality is unfortunately predicted to increase due to the absence of early detection and effective therapeutic options. Biomembrane‐coated biomimetic nanoparticles (NPs) have recently been appointed as advanced nanotechnological tools for the clinical management of gastrointestinal cancers. These comprise not only cell‐mimicking nanodevices (the pioneers of this top‐down coating technology), but also exosome and bacterial mimetics. Due to their enhanced bio‐interfacing features, biocompatibility, immune evasion, and specific targetability to tumorous tissues, these biomimetic nanostructures have been successfully exploited to provide safer, effective, and targeted gastrointestinal cancer applications. This review highlights the latest research on biomembrane‐coated nanosystems for the clinical therapy and diagnosis of the most common and deadliest subtypes of gastrointestinal cancers, namely colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, and pancreatic cancer.

Upon stimulation with feeder cells in the presence of cytokines, NK cells undergo profound changes in gene expression, altering their metabolic activity, cell cycle progression, and growth behavior, but the precise changes that drive this transformation remain poorly understood. In this study, we identified significant differences in the transcriptome and chromatin accessibility of NK cells 7 days after feeder cell and cytokine activation, with the changes even more pronounced in genome regions closer to enhancers. Several transcription factors, including AP-1, IRF4, STATs, T-bet, Eomes, and bHLHE40, which play key roles in NK cell development and immune response, exhibited differential binding activity between unstimulated and day 7 NK cells. Gene sets composed of target genes downstream of these transcription factors were also enriched at day 7, implying their involvement in NK cell activation. Moreover, we compared potential super-enhancer regions in NK cells before and after activation, combined with the transcriptional activity of nearby genes. We identified stable and transcriptionally active super-enhancers in unstimulated and day 7 NK cells, as well as those that form or disappear after co-culture initiation.

In this study, we report the first combined use of real‐time and wide‐field laser speckle imaging (RFLSI), near‐infrared two‐zone imaging (NIR‐II), duplex ultrasound (DUS), and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) for the diagnosis and monitoring of ALLI in male C57 and ICR mice.

In vitro experiments demonstrated enhanced viability and secretion of growth factors by hMSCs under severely hypoxic microenvironments, when CMC‐PLA particles provided attachment surfaces, compared to controls. Furthermore, in vivo experiments showed that CMC‐PLA particles injected with hMSCs improved collagen synthesis and wound closure more than those of the control groups.

The purpose of this study is to verify the feasibility of CD47 as an optical molecular imaging (OMI) target for human EC and to achieve precise localization and identification in hysteroscopic surgery. The results demonstrated that CD47 was overexpressed in EC through bioinformatics, immunohistochemistry, and qRT-PCR. In EC cell lines, CD47-targeted near-infrared photoimmunotherapy (NIR-PIT) induced cytotoxicity in a light dose-dependent manner. Laser confocal microscopy revealed that CD47 intervention significantly increased the phagocytic effect of macrophages on EC cells. In the mice model of partial tumor resection mediated by CD47-targeted OMI, compared to group A (immune therapy alone), group C (NIR-PIT treatment) mice showed a reduced tumor recurrence rate after NIR-PIT intervention. However, the difference did not reach statistical significance. We then evaluated the effect of CD47-targeted NIR-PIT maintenance therapy on tumor recurrence in mice. The results indicated that, compared to untreated animals, the tumor growth rate was slower in the NIR-PIT group using CD47-Alexa Fluor 790 (CD47-AF790), allowing for more sustained tumor control. The freshly isolated whole uterus specimens from EC patients were co-incubated with CD47-AF790, and a significantly enhanced contrast of NIR visible images of tumor tissue was observed, demonstrating high sensitivity and specificity (tumor-to-background ratio >5.05). Finally, under fluorescence microscopy, specific fluorescent signals are observed on tumor cells.
