Analog processed cheeses are cheese-like products with diverse compositions and functional properties that are produced by replacing milk components with non-milk components. The aim of the study was to investigate physicochemical, rheological and sensory properties of cheeses and oleogels. The results showed; that increasing the concentration of Mono and di-glyceride increased the oil binding capacity and improved the characteristics of the oleogel texture and stable during storage, especially in terms of oxidative.

Epithelial and immune cells have long been appreciated for their contribution to the early immune response after injury; however, much less is known about the role of mesenchymal cells. Using single-nuclei RNA sequencing, we defined changes in gene expression associated with inflammation 1 day after wounding in mouse skin. Compared with those in keratinocytes and myeloid cells, we detected enriched expression of proinflammatory genes in fibroblasts associated with deeper layers of the skin.

The formation of a robust, self-healing hydrogel of a novel pyrene-appended dipeptide, Py-E-A (L-Glutamic acid short as E; L-Alanine short as A) is demonstrated. Detailed studies suggest that nanoscopic fibers with a length of several micrometers have formed by chiral self-organization of Py-E-A gelators. Additionally, live human PBMCs imaging is shown using the Py-E-A fluorophore.

Epithelial and immune cells have long been appreciated for their contribution to the early immune response after injury; however, much less is known about the role of mesenchymal cells. Using single nuclei RNA-sequencing, we defined changes in gene expression associated with inflammation at 1-day post-wounding (dpw) in mouse skin. Compared to keratinocytes and myeloid cells, we detected enriched expression of pro-inflammatory genes in fibroblasts associated with deeper layers of the skin.
