Adhesion and survival of electrogenic cells on gold nanopillar array electrodes
Cell–electrode interfaces play a critical role in extracellular recording. Enlarging the electrode surface area with nanostructures yields higher signal–to–noise–ratios due to lower interface impedance. Adhesion and viability of various cell types on large–scale gold nanopillar electrodes to improve cell–electrode coupling were investigated. Cardiac muscle and human embryonic kidney cells ...

Vanadium Distribution Following Decavanadate Administration
Abstract An acute exposure of two vanadate solutions—metavanadate and decavanadate—containing different vanadate oligomers, induces different patterns of subcellular vanadium distribution in blood plasma, red blood cells (RBC), and cardiac muscle subcellular fractions of the fish Sparus aurata (gilthead seabream). The highest amount of vanadium was found in blood plasma 1 h after (5 mM) ...

Mesoscopic studies on toxic effect of doxorubicin on rat cardiac muscles
The anthracycline antibiotic doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most effective anti-tumour agents used to treat human malignancies. Long-term treatment with DOX is limited by its cardiotoxicity. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the cardiotoxic effect of DOX using nanoscale. Twelve adult male rats were divided into two groups: control group, group 2A, DOX one week (DOX 1wk), group2B, ...

Unsaturated Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids
What are unsaturated fatty acids? Unsaturated fatty acids are a type of fatty acids that make up body fat and are indispensable to the human body. Unsaturated fatty acids are divided into monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids, depending on the number of double bonds. In food fat, monounsaturated fatty acids include oleic acid and other fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fatty ...

Injecting mRNA and generating CAR-T directly in the body to repair the heart in one shot
January 6, 2022—Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania published a research paper in Science titled: CAR-T cells produced in vivo to treat cardiac injury. Heart damage or inflammation can induce fibroblasts to overproduce fibrous material, causing cardiac fibrosis, which hardens the heart muscle and impairs heart function. Heart failure, liver ...
