Gelatinous transformation of bone marrow is usually encountered in patients of anorexia nervosa. We report two cases of gelatinous transformation of the marrow, one without any detectable cause and the other associated with visceral leishmaniasis.

Stem cell implantation holds promise for enhancing bone repair, but risks of pathogen transmission and malignant cell transformation should not be ignored. Compared to stem cell implantation, recruitment of endogenous stem cells to injured sites is more critical for in situ bone regeneration. In this study, based on the acidic microenvironment of bone injury, an HG-AA-SDF-1α composite hydrogel with a dual-control intelligent switch function is developed by incorporating stromal cell-derived factor (SDF-1α), arginine carbon dots (Arg-CDs), and calcium ions (Ca) into the oxidized hyaluronic acid/gelatin methacryloyl (HG) hydrogel.

This research prepared gelatinized waxy maize starch (WMS), low-amylose maize starch (LAS), and high-amylose maize starch (HAS) with different glutathione (GSH) content (5, 10, and 15 %) using high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) at 600 MPa. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed damaged morphology of WMS and complete swelled granules of LAS and HAS with different degree of gelatinization (DG) values, 92.86, 59.

This study successfully developed a gelatin-sodium carboxymethyl cellulose-peach gum composite microcapsule system using the complex coacervation method. Optimal preparation conditions were determined by turbidity, complex condensate yield and encapsulation efficiency: the ratio of gelatin to sodium carboxymethyl cellulose was 7:1, the ratio of gelatin/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose to peach gum was 4:1, and the pH value was 4.2.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of laminarin (LA) and ferulic acid (FA) on the gelatinization, rheological properties, freeze-thaw stability, and digestibility of cassava starch (CS). The results indicated that LA increased the peak viscosity, trough viscosity, final viscosity, storage modulus, and loss modulus of CS, while decreasing the breakdown viscosity. Conversely, FA exerted opposite effects.

Bioprinting is currently the most promising method to biofabricate complex tissues in vitro with the potential to transform the future of organ transplantation and drug discovery. Efforts to create such tissues are, however, almost exclusively based on animal-derived materials, like gelatin methacryloyl, which have demonstrated efficacy in bioprinting of complex tissues. While these materials are already used in clinical applications, uncertainty about their safety still remains due to their animal origin.
