The dismal success rate of clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease (AD) motivates us to develop model systems AD pathology that have higher predictive validity. advent induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) allows and study mechanisms directly in human neural from healthy individual as well patients. However, two-dimensional culture do not recapitulate the complexity tissue, phenotypes such extracellular protein aggregation are difficult observe. We report brain organoids use derived...
Abstract Microneedles are emerging as a minimally invasive drug delivery alternative to hypodermic needles. Current material systems utilized in microneedles impose constraints hindering the further development of this technology. In particular, it is difficult preserve sensitive biochemical compounds (such pharmaceuticals) during processing single microneedle system and subsequently achieve their controlled release. A possible solution involves fabricating from biomaterial silk fibroin....
27%-efficient perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells are achieved in n–i–p configuration by developing novel electron and hole selective contacts, which combine high broadband transparency with efficient charge extraction.
Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells have gained significant attention as a viable commercial solution for ultra-high-efficiency photovoltaics. Ongoing research efforts focus on improving device performance, stability, and upscaling. Yet, paradoxically, their outdoor behavior remains largely unexplored. Here, we describe performance over complete calendar year outdoors in the area of Red Sea coast Saudi Arabia, which represents hot humid environment. After 1 year, our test retains 80% its...
Increased p25, a proteolytic fragment of the regulatory subunit p35, is known to induce aberrant activity cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), which associated with neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease. Previously, we showed that replacing endogenous p35 noncleavable mutant (Δp35) attenuated amyloidosis and improved cognitive function in familial disease mouse model. Here, address role p25/Cdk5 tauopathy, generated double-transgenic mice by crossing overexpressing human...
Microneedles represent an exciting departure from the existing parenteral injection paradigm for drug delivery, particularly administration of vaccines. While benefit delivering vaccine antigens to immunocompetent tissue in skin has been established, there have varying degrees success using microneedles do so. Here, we investigate use silk fibroin protein produce and evaluate their ability deliver vaccines against influenza, Clostridium difficile, Shigella. Fibroin silkworm Bombyx mori...
Carrier recombination at the interface between charge extraction layers and perovskite photoactive layer in solar cells reduces quasi-Fermi level splitting (QFLS) hence device's open-circuit voltage (VOC). Distinguishing interfacial carrier requires selective probing of dynamics with transient optical spectroscopy techniques. However, bulk recombination, all contribute to response, making a precise determination individual rates challenging. Here, we compare two commonly used hole transport...
Silk electrogelation involves the transition of an aqueous silk fibroin solution to a gel state (E-gel) in presence electric current.

A prototypical hybrid system formed by strong coupled gold hole arrays and J‐aggregate molecules is investigated using both steady‐state spectroscopic method ultrafast pump‐probe approach. In particular, the plasmonic response of device has been tuned modifying its periodicity thus to achieve strongest possible coupling regime. It found that in transient absorption spectra, under upper band excitation, bleaching signal from uncoupled completely disappears. Instead, two distinctive period...
Abstract With the objective to conceive a plasmonic solar cell with enhanced photocurrent, we investigate role of nanoshells, embedded within ultrathin microcrystalline silicon cell, in enhancing broadband light trapping capability and, at same time, reduce parasitic loss. The thickness considered (μc-Si) layer is only ~1/6 conventional μc-Si based cells while nanoshells are formed by combination silica and gold, respectively core shell. We analyze optical response varying both geometrical...
