Collagen is one of the main constituents mammalian extracellular matrix and used extensively as a coating for tissue culture dishes medical implants to promote cell growth proliferation. By modulating topography collagen at nanometer micrometer length scales, it possible achieve spatial control over morphology. In this work, we are exploring self-assembly thin film on glass substrate way create new nanoscale surface features. controlling concentration adding an oscillatory flow, able enrich with localized pattern ripples oriented perpendicular flow direction. We propose that these result dewetting leads formation adjacent holes. observe individual holes form anisotropic rim due microstructure deposited fibril network. This intrinsic anisotropy yield being formed in next existing rims. As keep growing deeper, rims extend along direction, appear rectangular shape, which gives linear array apparent morphology ripple. Overall, films would be difficult produce via standard nanofabrication techniques.

Abstract Solid‐state photosynthetic cell factories (SSPCFs) are a new production concept that leverages the innate abilities of microbes to drive valuable chemicals. It addresses practical challenges such as high energy and water demand improper light distribution associated with suspension‐based culturing; however, these systems often face significant related mass transfer. The approach focuses on overcoming limitations by carefully engineering microstructure immobilization matrix through freeze‐induced assembly nanochitin building blocks. use nanochitins optimized size enabled formation macropores lamellar spatial organization, which significantly improves transmittance distribution, crucial for maximizing efficiency reactions. biomimetic crosslinking strategy, leveraging specific interactions between polyphosphate anions primary amine groups featured chitin fibers, produced mechanically robust wet‐resilient cryogels maintained their functionality under operational conditions. Various model biotransformation reactions leading value‐added chemicals performed in chitin‐based matrix. demonstrates superior or comparable performance existing state‐of‐the‐art matrices systems. findings suggest cryogel holds promise advancing development solid‐state factories, offering scalable solution improve productivity light‐driven biotransformation.

Amyloid fibrils have generated steadily increasing traction in the development of natural and artificial materials. However, it remains a challenge to construct bulk amyloid films directly from due their intrinsic brittleness. Here, facile general methodology fabricate macroscopic tunable via fast electrostatic self-assembly at air-water interface is introduced. Benefiting excellent templating properties for nanoparticles (such as conductive carbon nanotubes or magnetic Fe3 O4 nanoparticles), multifunctional with are constructed. As proof-of-concept demonstrations, magnetically oriented soft robotic swimmer well-confined movement trajectory prepared. In addition, smart sensor high sensitivity external fields fabricated combination films. This strategy provides convenient, efficient, controllable approach preparation amyloid-based related devices.

Amyloid fibrils are one of the important forms protein aggregates, first discovered in pathological brain tissues patients with various neurodegenerative diseases. They considered core markers different In recent years, research has found that multiple proteins or peptides dynamically assemble to form functional amyloid-like nanofibrils under physiological conditions, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties, high environmental stability, and self-healing ability. Therefore, they have become a class biological nanomaterials development potential. This article systematically reviews latest progress preparation, functionalization, application engineering provides an outlook on possible future directions.

The biological effects of magnetic fields (MFs) have been a controversial issue. Fortunately, in recent years, there has increasing evidence that MFs do affect systems. However, the physical mechanism remains unclear. Here, we show (16 T) reduce apoptosis cell lines by inhibiting liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) Tau-441, suggesting MF effect on LLPS may be one mechanisms for understanding "mysterious" magnetobiological effects. Tau-441 occurred cytoplasm after induction with arsenite. phase-separated droplets recruited hexokinase (HK), resulting decrease amount free HK cytoplasm. In cells, and Bax compete to bind voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC I) mitochondrial membrane. A number molecules increased chance binding VDAC I, leading Bax-mediated apoptosis. presence static MF, was marked inhibited recruitment reduced, an probability I decreased thus reducing Our findings revealed new from perspective LLPS. addition, these results potential applications environments, such as this study, treatment LLPS-related diseases.

The objective of this work was to investigate the impact calcium hydrogen phosphate (CHP), curdlan gum (CUR), and TGase (TG) on digestion absorption surimi gel. In study, an vitro model combined with C57BL/6 mice used analyze digestive absorbed juices comprehensively. results showed that addition CHP CUR products a decreasing trend in α-helix content secondary structure substrate proteins after digestion, which slowed down digestibility gel by 4.27% 9.07% (p < 0.05). However, there no significant difference TG compared control group. Digested did not cause any nutritional loss. can effectively lipid accumulation improve their growth performance. All three additives promote release peptides, small peptide intestinal chyme group significantly increased 317.33 µg·mL-1 This study provides theoretical basis guidance for producing higher value.
