Strontium is a newly developed drug for decreasing risks of hip or vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women. Experimental studies have suggested that Strontium could enhance new bone formation and decrease the bone resorption. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) is an important category of stem cells which possess the osteogenic differentiation potential and could be used in the bone and cartilage tissue...
Selectin/ligand interactions mediate the tethering and rolling processes of blood cells on vascular surfaces. It has been demonstrated that flow is required during this adhesion process. But the molecular mechanism, e.g. how the shear loading from the hydrodynamic environment of the circulation influences the rupture of selectin/ligand complex, is still unclear. In this study, we simulated the dissociation...
Comminuted fracture is still a medical problem because of the difficulties for the small bone pieces fixation. Bone adhesive is one of the most potential methods to solve the problem. However, there are a lot of defects in the present medical adhesives. Some adhesives will produce certain poisonous substance in body which would be harmful to people's health. Some have worse adhesive strength and degrade...
Aureococcus anophagefferens, a harmful bloom-forming alga responsible for brown tides in estuaries of the Middle Atlantic U.S., has been investigated by atomic force microscopy for the first time, using probes functionalized with a monoclonal antibody specific for the alga. The rupture force between a single monoclonal antibody and the surface of A. anophagefferens was experimentally found to be 246...
