Endorepellin, the COOH-terminal domain of heparan sulfate proteoglycan perlecan, inhibits several aspects angiogenesis. We provide evidence for a novel biological axis that links soluble fragment perlecan protein core to major cell surface receptor collagen I, α2β1 integrin, and an initial investigation intracellular signaling events lead endorepellin antiangiogenic activity. The interaction between integrin triggers unique pathway causes increase in second messenger cAMP; activation two...
Perlecan, a ubiquitous basement membrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan, plays key roles in blood vessel growth and structural integrity. We discovered that the C terminus of perlecan potently inhibited four aspects angiogenesis: endothelial cell migration, collagen-induced tube morphogenesis, chorioallantoic Matrigel plug assays. The was active at nanomolar concentrations blocked adhesion to fibronectin type I collagen, without directly binding either protein; henceforth we have named it...

Endorepellin, the C-terminal domain of heparan sulfate proteoglycan perlecan, possesses angiostatic activity. The terminal laminin-like globular (LG3) endorepellin appears to possess most biological activity on endothelial cells. LG3 protein has been detected in urine patients with end-stage renal disease and amniotic fluid pregnant women premature rupture fetal membranes. These findings suggest that proteolytic processing generation might have significance. In this study, we identified...
Differential phase-contrast computed tomography (DPC-CT) is a powerful analysis tool for soft-tissue and low-atomic-number samples. Limited by the implementation conditions, DPC-CT with incomplete projections happens quite often. Conventional reconstruction algorithms are not easy to deal data. They usually involved complicated parameter selection operations, also sensitive noise time-consuming. In this paper, we reported new deep learning framework data DPC-CT. It tight coupling of neural...
Relaxor ferroelectrics are highly desired for pulse-power dielectric capacitors, however it has become a bottleneck that substantial enhancements of energy density generally sacrifice efficiency under superhigh fields. Here, we demonstrate novel concept polarizable concentrated dipole glass in delicately-designed high-entropy (Bi
The goal of this study was to discover novel partners for perlecan, a major heparan sulfate proteoglycan basement membranes, and examine new interactions through which perlecan may influence cell behavior. We employed the yeast two-hybrid system used domain V as bait screen human keratinocyte cDNA library. Among strongest interacting clones, we isolated ∼1.6-kb insert that encoded extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1), secreted glycoprotein involved in bone formation angiogenesis. sequencing...
Breast cancer is a major threat to health and lives of females. Biomimetic nanotechnology brought brighter hope for early diagnosis treatment breast cancer. Here, we proposed platelet (PLT) membrane-derived strategy enhanced photoacoustic (PA)/ultrasonic (US)/fluorescence (FL) multimodal imaging augmented synergistic photothermal/chemotherapeutic efficacy in tumor cells. A PA contrast photothermal agent, nanocarbons (CNs), chemotherapeutic FL material, doxorubicin (DOX), perfluoropentane...
Wearable sweat sensors are a rapidly rising research area owing to their convenience for personal healthcare and disease diagnosis in real-time noninvasive manner. However, the fast scalable fabrication of flexible electrodes remains major challenge. Here, we develop wearable epidermal sensor multiplexed analysis based on laser-induced graphene (LIG) technique. This simple mask-free technique allows direct manufacturing electrode patterns commercial polyimide foils. The resulting LIG devices...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Recurrent hemoptysis after bronchial artery embolization (BAE) in patients with bronchiectasis remains a major clinical challenge. The Computed Tomography Bronchiectasis Score (CTBS) quantifies disease severity based on radiological characteristics. This study aims to assess the prognostic value of CTBS predicting 3-year recurrence following BAE bronchiectasis. Methods retrospective cohort included 121 who underwent for bronchiectasis-related from January...
Differential phase-contrast computed tomography (DPC-CT) is a powerful analysis tool for soft-tissue and low-atomic-number samples.

They usually involve complicated parameter selection operations, which are also sensitive to noise time-consuming. In this paper, we report new deep learning framework data DPC-CT. It involves...
To evaluate whether preoperative mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is a prognostic indicator in patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).A total of 298 consecutive, prospectively enrolled histologically diagnosed ESCC who underwent surgery curative intent from 2001 to 2011 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients excluded if they had previous malignant disease, distant metastasis at the time primary treatment, history neoadjuvant undergone non-radical resection, or died...

Aero engines are the key power source for aerospace vehicles. Cermet turbine blades guarantee new-generation fighters to improve aero-engine overall performance. X-ray non-destructive reconstruction can obtain internal structure and morphology of cermet blades. However, beam hardening effect causes artifacts in objects affects quality, which is an issue that needs be solved urgently. This study proposes a hardening-correction framework industrial computed tomography (ICT) images based on...
