Small extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of intercellular signaling that carry biologically active protein payloads relevant in wound healing. However, whether EVs analyzed from fluid or other biological fluids, heterogenous, reflecting part the release different cell types. To address central question EV heterogeneity parallel with unmet need forin vivo sources low platelet c...

High-performance fibres are fibre materials that exhibit at least one extraordinary property compared to conventional materials. That is frequently related excellent stability against certain influences such as fire, heat, chemicals or light. Also, a high mechanical strength often of high-performance fibres. Nevertheless, it should be noted weaknesses in addition their advantages. This review p...

Polymer nanocomposites with exceptionally high mechanical properties owing to strong interfacial attraction have garnered tremendous interest in the research community. In general, tough and robust polymer are usually obtained via dispersing a nano-flaky filler matrix, although strategy is only sometimes practically viable. To this end, work, facile has been adopted achieve nanocomposite. A nov...

Latent heat stored in phase change materials (PCM) can greatly improve energy efficiency indoor heating/cooling applications. This study presents the and methods for formation characterization of a PCM layer latent thermal storage (LHTES) application. Four commercially available PCMs comprising classes organic paraffins non-paraffins were selected Pure water emulsions experimentally investigate...

Active wound dressings play a significant role in burn and chronic wound treatment. In this study, electrospinning process is used to fabricate a novel three-layer active wound dressing based on ε-polycaprolactone (PCL), polyvinylalcohol (PVA), and curcumin (CU) as a biologically active compound. The main purpose for developing such a system is to control wound exudates, which remains a challen...

OBJECTIVE Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling during angiogenesis is accomplished through plasmin-dependent pericellular proteolysis and through the action of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Because tissue factor pathway inhibitor-2 (TFPI-2), a Kunitz-type protease inhibitor with prominent ECM localization, inhibits plasmin and MMPs activity, we investigated the role of TFPI-2 in endothelia...
