The composition conversion in block copolymer induced by external stimuli such as light and pH is an effective strategy to trigger the disassembly of vesicles experimentally. Based on this strategy, the disassembly behavior of the ABA triblock copolymer vesicle induced by the composition conversion from B block to C block was studied using Monte Carlo simulation. In this study, a part of the B block in the ABA triblock copolymer was converted to the new block C with weaker hydrophobicity, forming the ABCA tetrablock copolymer.

Neuromuscular diseases usually manifest as abnormalities involving motor neurons, neuromuscular junctions, and skeletal muscle (SkM) in postnatal stage. Present in vitro models of neuromuscular interactions require a long time and lack neuroglia involvement. Our study aimed to construct rodent bioengineered spinal cord neural network-skeletal muscle (NN-SkM) assembloids to elucidate the interactions between spinal cord neural stem cells (SC-NSCs) and SkM cells and their biological effects on the development and maturation of postnatal spinal cord motor neural circuits.

The influence of interface morphology is of great importance on the shear behavior of the cement mortar-coal composite structure (CCCS) widely distributed in underground mines. In the present research, both the macroscopic- and microscopic failure characteristics of the CCCS with variable interface sawtooth angles (i.e.

Sphingolipids serve as building blocks of membranes to ensure subcellular compartmentalization and facilitate intercellular communication. How cell type-specific lipid compositions are achieved and what is their functional significance in tissue morphogenesis and maintenance has remained unclear. Here, we identify a stem cell-specific role for ceramide synthase 4 (CerS4) in orchestrating fate decisions in skin epidermis.
