Brain stent to let five paralysed people control exoskeleton
The implant travels to the brain via the blood and could provide a permanent way of recording signals used to direct an exoskeleton that helps paralysed people walk
Stem cells in tissues, organoids, and cancers - PubMed
Stem cells give rise to all cells and build the tissue structures in our body, and heterogeneity and plasticity are the hallmarks of stem cells. Epigenetic modification, which is associated with niche signals, determines stem cell differentiation and somatic cell reprogramming. Stem cells play a cri …

Comprehensive kinetic studies of acidic oil continuous esterification by cation-exchange resin in fixed bed reactors
Biodiesel produced by esterification from molar ratio of methanol to free fatty acid (FFA) as 25:1 in presence of triglyceride was carried out with cation-exchange resin as a heterogeneous catalyst in three different scales of fixed bed reactors from minireactor (6.8 mm × 110 mm) to pilot scale reac …
Multi-Spheroid-Loaded Human Acellular Dermal Matrix Carrier Preserves Its Spheroid Shape and Improves In Vivo Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Delivery and Engraftment
These results indicate that transplantation of spheroid-loaded tsADMs significantly improved cell delivery. These findings suggest that a combined approach with other cells, drugs, and nanoparticles may improve cell delivery and therapeutic efficacy.

Neuronal transcription program induced in hippocampal cells cocultured with bone marrow derived mesenchymal cells - PubMed
Several approaches have been applied to harvest bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and to differentiate into neurons or neuronal-like cells through chemical stimulation or exposing to growth factors. To date, the data regarding induction or regulation of neuronal transcription program in neuronal-lik …
role for dopamine D1-like receptors in acute food deprivation-induced reinstatement of heroin seeking in rats | International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology | Oxford Academic
Abstract. Dopamine has a critical role in drug reinforcement and the reinstatement of drug seeking due to priming or exposure to drug-associated cues. In contra

A hopefully biased pilot survey of physicians' knowledge of the content of drug combinations - PubMed
A selected group of doctors were asked to state the number and names of the ingredients of several drug combinations they were accustomed to prescribe. The results indicate that among physicians there are serious gaps in their exact knowledge of the content of the preparations they order for their p …
Sustained participatory design and implementation of ITHC - PubMed
Participatory design includes engaging in large-scale information-systems development where participatory design approaches have been applied throughout design and organizational implementation. The keynote suggest to extend the iterative prototyping approach by (1) emphasizing participatory design …
Local environmental factors determine hematopoietic differentiation of neural stem cells - PubMed
Stem cells exhibit unique properties and hold high therapeutic promise, but factors influencing their differentiation after transplantation need to be recognized and defined for this promise to be fully met. Here, we demonstrate that endogenous colony-forming unit spleen (CFU-S) colonies are not gen …
