Engineered living materials (ELMs), which usually comprise bacteria, fungi, or animal cells entrapped in polymeric matrices, offer limitless possibilities in fields like drug delivery or biosensing. Determining the conditions that sustain ELM performance while ensuring compatibility with ELM hosts is essential before testing them in vivo. This is critical to reduce animal experimentation and can be achieved through investigations.

The accumulation of lipids in hepatocytes in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) leads to an increase in reactive oxygen species and changes in the intracellular microenvironment, while ferroptosis is the result of the accumulation of iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Studies have shown that ferroptosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. Herein, we have developed a viscosity-sensitive fluorescence probe PTSO with near-infrared emission and a large Stokes shift, which were achieved by introducing the sulfone group into the dioxothiochromen-malononitrile fluorophore as an electron-withdrawing group.

Anthocyanins are a type of water-soluble pigments widely distributed in colorful plants, which have been extensively used in food and cosmetics industry. The current production of anthocyanins heavily depends on extraction from plant materials, which leads to low purity and inconsistency among batches. Compared with conventional extraction, microorganism-mediated production of anthocyanins has advantages such as a short production cycle, high purity, low waste production, low energy requirements, and consistency between different batches.

To investigate the effect of the sizes of osteon-like concentric microgroove structures on the osteoclastic differentiation of macrophages on titanium surfaces, and to provide reference for the surface modification of implants. The silicon wafers sputtered with titanium were selected as the control group (smooth surface specimens) and four concentric groups (concentric circles with the maximum diameter of 200 μ m, the minimum diameter of 20 μ m, the spacing of concentric circles of 10 or 30 μm, the width of microgrooves of 10 or 30 μm, and the depth of microgrooves of 5 or 10 μm) specimens (the total sample size in each group was 27). The width of microgrooves of C10-5 and C10-10 groups was 10 μm, the depth was 5 and 10 μm, and the width of microgrooves of C30-5 and C30-10 groups was 30 μ m, the depth was 5 and 10 μ m, respectively.

Interferon regulatory factor 2 (IRF2) is a member of the IRF family that is specifically involved in diverse immune responses via interferon (IFN)/IRF-dependent signaling pathways. In this study, IRF2 of Epinephelus akaara (EAIRF2) was identified and characterized by evaluating its structural and functional properties. EAIRF2 showed the highest homology with IRF2 of Epinephelus coioides and clustered with teleosts in the phylogenetic tree.
