	abstract = {Wound dressing biomaterials are increasingly being designed to incorporate bioactive molecules to promote healing, but the impact of matrix mechanical properties on the biology of resident cells orchestrating skin repair and regeneration remains to be fully understood. This study investigated whether tuning the stiffness of a model wound dressing biomaterial could control the behavior of dermal fibroblasts. Fully interpenetrating networks (IPNs) of collagen-I and alginate were fabricated to enable gel stiffness to be tuned independently of gel architecture, polymer concentration or adhesion ligand density. Three-dimensional cultures of dermal fibroblasts encapsulated within matrices of different stiffness were shown to promote dramatically different cell morphologies, and enhanced stiffness resulted in upregulation of key-mediators of inflammation such as IL-10 and COX-2. These findings suggest that simply modulating the matrix mechanical properties of a given wound dressing biomaterial deposited at the wound site could regulate the progression of wound healing. {\textcopyright} 2014 Elsevier Ltd.},

	abstract = {Albumin-scavenging surfaces decorated with n-alkyl chains represent an established strategy for blood-contacting applications. To evaluate this concept, a set of poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) films modified with different amounts of octadecyl isocyanate (C18) was investigated in an in vitro hemocompatibility assay using freshly drawn human whole blood. In addition, the hydrogel materials were thoroughly characterized with respect to changes in wettability and elasticity, which accompanied the gradual chemical modification of pHEMA. An increase of the surface C18 content induced enhanced hydrophobicity and stiffness. Immobilization of C18 chains was found to substantially reduce the coagulation activation and the complement activation by the pHEMA films. Platelet adhesion and degranulation (PF4 release) were similar on the modified and the unmodified pHEMA. Platelet adhesion to pHEMA hydrogels was lower than the polytetrafluoroethylene reference. We conclude that the immobilization of octadecyl chains improved the hemocompatibility of pHEMA materials under conditions that might be encountered in low shear blood flow. {\textcopyright} 2012 Elsevier Ltd.},

	abstract = {The integration of cell division in root growth and development requires mediation of developmental and physiological signals through regulation of cyclin-dependent kinase activity. Cells within the pericycle form de novo lateral root meristems, and D-type cyclins (CYCD), as regulators of the G                        1-to-S phase cell cycle transition, are anticipated to play a role. Here, we show that the D-type cyclin protein CYCD2;1 is nuclear in Arabidopsis thaliana root cells, with the highest concentration in apical and lateral meristems. Loss of CYCD2;1 has a marginal effect on unstimulated lateral root density, but CYCD2;1 is rate-limiting for the response to low levels of exogenous auxin. However, while CYCD2;1 expression requires sucrose, it does not respond to auxin. The protein Inhibitor-Interactor of CDK/Kip Related Protein2 (ICK2/KRP2), which interacts with CYCD2;1, inhibits lateral root formation, and ick2/krp2 mutants show increased lateral root density. ICK2/ KRP2 can modulate the nuclear levels of CYCD2;1, and since auxin reduces ICK2/KRP2 protein levels, it affects both activity and cellular distribution of CYCD2;1. Hence, as ICK2/KRP2 levels decrease, the increase in lateral root density depends on CYCD2;1, irrespective of ICK2/CYCD2;1 nuclear localization. We propose that ICK2/KRP2 restrains root ramification by maintaining CYCD2;1 inactive and that this modulates pericycle responses to auxin fluctuations. {\textcopyright} 2011 American Society of Plant Biologists.

	abstract = {CD44 is the major ubiquitously expressed cell surface receptor for hyaluronate. The CD44 gene encodes several protein isoforms due to extensive alternative splicing and post-translational modifications. Some of these CD44 variable isoforms have been foreseen as key players in malignant transformation and their expression is highly restricted and highly specific, unlike the canonical CD44 standard isoform. In this study, we aimed at dissecting the mRNA splicing pattern of CD44 in normal stomach and gastric cancer (GC) cell lines (n9) using cloning and quantitative mRNA amplification assays. Moreover, we assessed the RNA levels and protein expression pattern of relevant splicing forms in distinct premalignant and malignant gastric lesions (sporadic (n43) and hereditary (n3) forms) using real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. We also explored the association of CD44 and E-cadherin expression by immunohistochemistry, as E-cadherin has a pivotal functional role in GC. We established the pattern of CD44 variant forms in normal stomach and gastric malignancy. We observed that although exon v6-containing isoforms were rarely expressed in normal gastric mucosa, they became increasingly expressed both in gastric premalignant (hyperplastic polyps, complete and incomplete intestinal metaplasia, low- and high-grade dysplasia) and malignant lesions (cell lines derived from GCs, primary sporadic GCs and hereditary diffuse GCs (HDGCs)). Moreover, we verified that whenever E-cadherin expression was absent, exon v6-containing CD44 isoforms were overexpressed. The lack of expression of CD44 isoforms containing exon v6 in the surface and foveolar epithelia of normal stomach and, its de novo expression in premalignant, as well as in sporadic and hereditary malignant lesions of the stomach, pinpoint CD44 v6-containg isoforms as potential biomarkers for early transformation of the gastric mucosa. Further, our results raise the hypothesis of using CD44v6 as a marker of early invasive intramucosal carcinoma in HDGC CDH1 mutation carriers that lack CDH1 expression in their tumors. {\textcopyright} 2010 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved.},

Here we report the establishment of a confocal tracking system that allows the analysis of numbers and orientations of cell divisions in root stem cells. The system provides direct evidence that stem cells have lower division rates than cells in the proximal meristem. It also allows tracking of cell division timing, which we have used to analyse the synchronization of root cap divisions. Finally, it gives new insights into lateral root cap formation: epidermal stem-cell daughters can rotate the orientation of the division plane like the stem cell. {\textcopyright} 2006 The Authors.},

	abstract = {Polylactide/hydroxyapatite composites were prepared by a solution mixture method. Chloroform and tetrahydrofuran were used as solvents. The effect of the solvents on the polylactide/hydroxyapatite composites was investigated by TEM, mechanical properties, sedimentation time and UV-Vis transmission spectra. The results indicate that the polylactide/hydroxyapatite prepared using tetrahydrofuran as solvent has better dispersion of the hydroxyapatite filler in the matrix and larger bend strength than the one using chloroform as solvent. This is ascribed to the proper interaction between the solvent and hydroxyapatite filler.},

	abstract = {In the present work, it is intended to study the effect of Cibacron blue F3G-A (CB) immobilised onto PU-PHEMA (polyurethane-poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate)) surfaces on protein adsorption and bacterial adhesion. CB immobilisation was carried out by covalent binding between its triazine ring and the hydroxyl groups of the polymer. Characterisation of the films was carried out by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FT-IR), contact angle measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). CB efficiency was evaluated using radiolabelled albumin and fibrinogen from pure solutions, mixtures of both and plasma. Bacterial adhesion tests before and after albumin pre-coating were also performed. The presence of CB increases albumin and fibrinogen adsorption to PU-PHEMA surfaces. The incorporation of CB onto the PU-PHEMA surface also increases bacterial adhesion. Although albumin pre-coating decreases bacterial adhesion onto PU (67\% decrease) and PU-PHEMA-CB (80\%), bacterial adhesion is always lower on PU and PU-PHEMA surfaces than on PU-PHEMA-CB. These results demonstrate that, in contrast to what has been described for CB bound to dextran, CB immobilisation on PU-PHEMA surfaces presents low selectivity to albumin and increased bacterial adhesion relatively to PU and PU-PHEMA surfaces.},

	abstract = {Materials that adsorb specific proteins may find a variety of applications in the biomedical field. The aim of this study was the preparation of a hydrophilic surface, with low protein adsorption, to be used in the future as a support for the immobilisation of several species, e.g. Cibacron Blue F3G-A, which has been described to induce specific albumin adsorption. Poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate) (PHEMA) and poly(hydroxyethylacrylate) (PHEA) were chosen as the hydrophilic surface because they can be easily polymerised and possess hydroxyl groups that can be used for the immobilisation of different compounds. Thin films of PHEMA and PHEA were successfully graft polymerised onto the surface of a commercial poly(etherurethane) (PU) using ceric ion as initiator. Grafting polymerisations were followed by mass gain and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). Since stability tests demonstrated that only PU-PHEMA was stable in alkaline solutions, a necessary condition to future immobilisations, the investigation was focused on the coating of PU with PHEMA. PU-PHEMA films were characterised in detail using several techniques as mass gain, ATR-FTIR, contact angle measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Protein adsorption was evaluated using radiolabelled albumin and fibrinogen from pure solutions and from mixtures of both proteins. PU surfaces modified with PHEMA have demonstrated low protein adsorption, showing their potential use as substrates. This opens the possibly of exploring the advantages of selective adsorption by appropriate immobilisation of specific molecules. {\textcopyright} 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {The most popular coronary stents are made of 316L stainless steel and self-expandable Nitinol. Nevertheless, Ta has already been used to make stents for endovascular surgery and may constitute a good alternative to the other materials because of its higher corrosion resistance and radio-opacity property, which may facilitate the follow-up of stent catheterization. The characterization of Ta and its natural passive oxide films has been performed in a 0.15M NaCl solution (simulated body fluid - SBF) using anodic polarizations, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and photoelectrochemical techniques. Changes in microstructure have been observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Polarization curves show the existence of a current density increase between 1.40 and 1.80V. Bode complex plots show that some perturbation of the film occurred in this potential interval which may be associated with a decrease in polarization resistance, Rp, indicating that the film may be less resistant to corrosive attack. Mott-Schottky capacity measurements show that the density of donors, Nd, varies with polarization. The optical band gap, E                        g, which is equal to 4.1 eV did not show variations in our experiments. The localized formation on the electrode surface, in the above potential interval of a Ta compound (possibly an oxide-hydroxide) was observed by AFM, and this may explain the appearance of the current density peak and capacity behavior at those potentials. {\textcopyright} 2002 Kluwer Academic Publishers.

	abstract = {It is known that neurons in the primary visual cortex are characterized by receptive fields that are selective for specific spatial orientations. It is believed that the sense of object motion and velocity are also related to these fields, as objects in natural scenes are represented by a sparse set of statistically independent components, such as edges. Currently, computational models of receptive fields consider only spatial components, and thus cannot account for time-varying sensory stimuli. In this paper, a model based on independent components analysis and cellular neural networks is proposed. This approach extends existing models to incorporate temporal aspects of sequences of images of natural scenes.},

	abstract = {Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses have been used to investigate the dissolution of hydroxyapatite in the presence of titanium chloride suggesting the substitution of titanium ions for calcium in the hydroxyapatite structure. The surface analytical data suggest that titanium was incorporated within the solid phase as titanium phosphate. Comparison of relative ion intensities in the ToF-SIMS spectra reveals changes in the composition of the surface chemistry of hydroxyapatite. These relative ion intensities show that the maximum surface uptake of titanium occurred at a solution concentration of 500 ppm titanium chloride for a time of incubation of 30 min. These data correlate with that obtained using XPS highlighting the semi-quantitative information which ToF-SIMS can provide.Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses have been used to investigate the dissolution of hydroxyapatite in the presence of titanium chloride suggesting the substitution of titanium ions for calcium in the hydroxyapatite structure.
