The bioengineering of vascular networks is pivotal to create complex tissues and organs for regenerative medicine applications. However, bioengineered tissues comprising an arterial and venous plexus alongside a lymphatic capillary network have not been explored yet. Here, scRNA-seq is first employed to investigate the arterio-venous endothelial cell marker patterning in human fetal and juvenile skin.

Background: The use of iodinated contrast-enhancing agents in computed tomography (CT) improves the visualization of relevant structures for radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP). However, it can lead to dose calculation errors by incorrectly converting a CT number to electron density.

Purpose: This study aimed to propose an algorithm for deriving virtual non-contrast (VNC) electron density from dual-energy CT (DECT) data.

Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers have been developed to compensate the needs of blood for transfusions. Most of them were based on intracellular hemoglobin extracted from bovine or human blood, but unfortunately, this type of hemoglobin did not pass through the last steps of clinical trials. In this context, HEMARINA discovered a natural extracellular hemoglobin, possessing several advantages avoiding intracellular hemoglobin-related side effects.

To evade legal controls, new psychoactive substances (NPS), which have been designed as substitutes for traditional and synthetic drugs, are gradually dominating the drug market. Synthetic cannabinoids (SCs), which account for the majority of NPS, are rapidly being derivatized; consequently, controlling increasing abuse by merely listing individual compounds is difficult. Therefore, China has included the entire SC category of SCs listed as legal controlled substances since July 1, 2021.

Non-invasive continuous detection using tears or sweat as substitutes for blood samples has become an emerging method for real-time monitoring of human health. However, its development is limited by the low sample volume and low level of analytes. The simultaneous determination of multi-analytes with highly sensitive electrochemical sensing platforms has undoubtedly resulted in breakthrough innovations.
