Abstract The trabecular meshwork within the outflow apparatus is critical in maintaining intraocular pressure homeostasis. In vitro studies employing primary cell cultures of human (hTM) have conventionally served as surrogates for investigating pathobiology TM dysfunction. Despite its abundant use, translation outcomes from to ex vivo and/or remains a challenge. Given heterogeneity, performing single-cell RNA sequencing comparing hTM tissue may provide important insights on cellular identity and translatability, such an approach has not been reported before. this study, we assembled total 14 samples across passages 1–4, including 4 individuals diagnosed with glaucoma. This dataset offers comprehensive transcriptomic resource scRNA-seq data study global changes gene expression comparison cells situ . We performed extensive preprocessing quality control, allowing research community access utilize public resource.

Individual cells and within the tissues organs constantly face mechanical challenges, such as tension, compression, strain, shear stress, rigidity of cellular extracellular surroundings. Besides external forces, their components are also subjected to intracellular pulling, pushing, stretching, created by sophisticated force-generation machinery cytoskeleton molecular motors. All these stressors switch on mechanotransduction pathways, allowing respond adapt. Mechanical force-induced changes at cell membrane transmitted nucleus its nucleoskeleton, affecting nucleocytoplasmic transport, chromatin conformation, transcriptional activity, replication, genome, which, in turn, orchestrate behavior. The memory mechanoresponses is stored epigenetic structure modifications. state response acellular environment determines identity, fate, immune invading pathogens. Here, we give a short overview latest developments understanding processes, emphasizing effects nuclei, chromosomes, chromatin.

Nanotopographic fabrication has been proven to enhance the osteoinductivity of titanium implant surfaces; however, it is difficult for static nanostructures regulate multiple osteoblast behaviors. Herein, we proposed a novel strategy further modifying nanostructured surfaces using degradable nanotopography that was beneficial specific cellular processes and spatiotemporally matched. In this work, titania nanotube (TNT) array, known its strong capability promote osteogenic differentiation, employed as substrate. An oil-water biphase system containing 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) utilized achieve in situ deposition amino-functionalized mesoporous silica films on TNT surface (TNT@AHMS). The numerous mesopores (∼4 nm) amino groups AHMS significantly improved protein adsorption attachment rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs). By culturing an AHMS-conditioned medium, effects enhancing early cell behavior were observed initially attributed potential synergism topography silicon element release (∼18 ppm). Impressively, effect maintained even when reseeded normal culture substrates. After 24 h, degraded completely, degradation products facilitated subsequent re-exposed TNT, which accounted robust osteogenesis both vitro vivo. This study demonstrated can serve (like buffer layer) accelerate adhesion matched manner, resulting enhanced bioactivity well-designed underlying without influencing physicochemical properties.
