Protein-based bioactive coatings have emerged as a versatile and promising strategy for
enhancing the performance and biocompatibility of diverse biomedical materials and …

Communities of epithelial cells communicate through intercellular interactions, allowing
them to coordinate their motility, which plays a key role in homeostasis, morphogenesis and …

Tissues acquire function and shape via differentiation and morphogenesis. Both processes
are driven by coordinating cellular forces and shapes at the tissue scale, but general …

Glutaminase (GLS), which deaminates glutamine to form glutamate, is a mitochondrial
tetrameric protein complex. Although inorganic phosphate (Pi) is known to promote GLS …

Contact guidance is a powerful topographical cue that induces persistent directional cell
migration. Healthy tissue stroma is characterized by a meshwork of wavy extracellular matrix …

Spatially controlled cell adhesion on electron microscopy supports remains a bottleneck in
specimen preparation for cellular cryo-electron tomography. Here, we describe contactless …

Technical progress in materials science and bioprinting has for the past few decades
fostered considerable advances in medicine. More recently, the understanding of the …

Both substrate stiffness and surface topography regulate cell behavior through
mechanotransduction signaling pathways. Such intertwined effects suggest that engineered …

The molecular heterogeneity of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and the co‐isolation of
physically similar particles, such as lipoproteins (LPs), confounds and limits the sensitivity of …

Biomimetic materials have long been the (he) art of bioengineering. They usually aim at
mimicking in vivo conditions to allow in vitro culture, differentiation and expansion of cells …
