Attachment and migration of bovine chondrocytes cultured in vitro were significantly suppressed by the addition of interleukin (IL)-1alpha at the concentration of 1 ng/ml or more (p<0.05). The application of hyaluronic acid (HA) at the concentration of 10 micro g/m l or more significantly recovered the attachment of chondrocytes (p<0.05) and the application of HA at 100 micro g/ml concentration recovered the migration of chondrocytes suppressed by IL-1alpha. These results suggest that the application of HA for inflammatory arthropathies or chondrocyte transplantation might be helpful to preserve the properties of chondrocytes and its extracellular matrix against inflammatory conditions.

Niches are often found in specific positions in tissues relative to the stem cells they support. Consistency of niche position suggests that placement is important for niche function. However, the complexity of most niches has precluded a thorough understanding of how their proper placement is established.

What little we know about how microbiomes change over the course of host dispersal has been gleaned from simulations or snapshot sampling of microbiomes of hosts undertaking regular, cyclical migrations. These studies suggest that major changes in both microbiome richness and turnover occur in response to long-distance movements, but we do not yet know how rare or sporadic dispersal events for non-migratory organisms might affect the microbiomes of their hosts. Here we directly examine the microbiomes of rafting seaweed, leveraging host genomic analyses, amplicon sequencing, and oceanographic modelling to study the impacts of ecological dispersal of hosts on their microbiomes.

Different kinds of proteins interact with the digestible lipids in various ways, affecting the adsorption behavior of proteins and digestion. The ordered porous layer interferometry (OPLI) system was constructed by the silica colloidal crystal (SCC) films used to monitor the real-time binding assessment between bovine serum albumin (BSA), casein, fibrinogen, and triolein. The OPLI system reflected the changes in protein mass on the SCC films in real time through the migration of the interference spectrum of the SCC films, which was converted into the changes in optical thickness (ΔOT) that can be monitored.

Cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions play multiple roles in developmental, physiological, and pathological processes. ECM stiffness substantially affects cellular morphology, migration, and function. In this study, we investigated the effect of ECM comprising gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) on the activation of rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells, a model mast cell line.

The fibroblastic sleeve is a structure potentially enveloping any intravascular device. At ultrasound scan, it typically presents as a thin layer of variably echogenic material covering the catheter surface, which usually tends to remain into the vessel after the catheter removal. However, several case reports have documented its migration toward the heart or pulmonary artery after a central venous catheter removal.
