A Suspended microchannel resonator (SMR) is composed by a hollow resonant structure containing embedded microfluidic channel. This device allows to circumvent the viscous damping confining the fluid to the inside of the resonant beam. The goal of this proj ...
Whether one aims to design treatments for diseases such as cancer or diabetes, engineer cells to produce valuable biochemicals sustainably, or to grasp the behavior of living organisms, it is essential to understand how cells react to genetic, environmenta ...
While the biofilm growth mode conveys notable thriving advantages to bacterial populations, the mechanisms of biofilm formation are still strongly debated. Here, we investigate the remarkable spontaneous formation of regular spatial patterns during the gro ...
The bacteriophage T4 genome contains two genes that code for proteins with lysozyme activity-e and 5. Gene e encodes the well-known T4 lysozyme (commonly called T4L) that functions to break the peptidoglycan layer late in the infection cycle, which is requ ...
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils contain at least four serine endopeptidases, namely neutrophil elastase (NE), proteinase 3 (PR3), cathepsin G (CatG), and NSP4, which contribute to the regulation of infection and of inflammatory processes. In physiological co ...
Background Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive cancer related to asbestos exposure. The tumor microenvironment content, particularly the presence of macrophages, was described as crucial for the development of the disease. This wo ...
A 3D bioprinting approach has been developed to facilitate tissue morphogenesis by directly depositing organoid-forming stem cells in an extracellular matrix, with the ability to generate intestinal epithelia and branched vascular tissue constructs. Biopri ...
Malva pseudolavatera Webb & Berthel. is a plant from the Malvaceae family that has long been included in the human diet due to its various curative effects. Many plant leaf extracts from the various species of Malva genus have been reported to possess anti ...
Hexavalent chromium is among the most common and hazardous inorganic contaminants in soils and groundwater. A promising in situ bioremediation approach is the delivery of electron donors to stimulate microbially mediated Cr(VI) reduction, producing relativ ...
Among immune correlates of clinical responses, tumor-specificneoantigens took the spotlight as relevant targets for cancerimmunotherapy. The implementation of pipelines forpersonalized cancer therapy remains challenging due to theprivacy, that is patient-s ...
