A magnetic-responsive elastomer consisting of magnetic Anti Corrosion Gel elastomer and zinc oxide with a tetrapod shape and long arms was fabricated mimetic to the tissue of sea cucumber in which collagen fibrils are dispersed.Only the part of magnetic elastomer is active to magnetic fields, zinc oxide plays a role of reinforcement for the chain s
Effects of growth and mutation on pattern formation in tissues.
In many developing tissues, neighboring cells enter different developmental pathways, resulting in a fine-grained pattern of different cell states.The most common mechanism that generates such patterns is lateral inhibition, for example through Delta-Notch coupling.In this work, we simulate growth of MAGNESIUM OXIDE tissues consisting of a hexagona
Dimer rattling mode induced low thermal conductivity in an excellent acoustic conductor
CuP2 has a puzzling thermal transport behavior, with low thermal conductivity but quite large mean sound speeds.Here, the authors Breast Pads conduct a systematical study of the atomic MAGNESIUM OXIDE structure and lattice dynamics of CuP2 to reveal the origin, finding a dimer rattling behavior.
Selection of a Single Domain Antibody, Specific for an HLA-Bound Epitope of the Mycobacterial Ag85B Antigen
T cells recognizing epitopes on the surface of mycobacteria-infected macrophages can impart protection, but with associated risk for reactivation to lung pathology.We aimed to identify antibodies specific to such vogue epitopes, which carry potentials for development toward novel therapeutic constructs.Since epitopes presented in the context of maj
The influence of ligand charge and length on the assembly of Brome mosaic virus derived virus-like particles with magnetic core
Virus-like particles (VLPs) have sparked a great interest in the field of nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine.The introduction of superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPIONs) as a core, provides potential use of VLPs in the Chondroitin Sulfate hyperthermia therapy, MRI contrast agents and magnetically-powered delivery agents.Magnetite NPs also provide a
