Article Title: Cu 2+ -chelated epigallocatechin gallate nanoparticle-functionalized hydrogel promotes osteogenesis by inhibiting ferroptosis.
Article Snippet: A pathological inflammatory microenvironment can hinder bone regeneration by disrupting the osteogenic differentiation potential of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).. However, conventional antiinflammatory therapies alone are insufficient to fully resolve this challenge.. Bone defect repair is often impaired by persistent inflammation-induced ferroptosis in BMSCs, and traditional approaches fail to prevent lipid peroxidation-driven cell death.

Article Title: Nanocellulose Alleviates Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy via Gut Microbiota-Mediated Bile Acid Homeostasis.
Article Snippet: .. After blocking with 5% nonfat ilk in TBST (Tris-buffered saline containing 0.1% Tween-20), embranes were incubated overnight at 4◦C with primary antiodies against CYP7A1 (Affinity Biosciences, #DF2612), CYP27A1 Abcam, #ab126785), MRP2 (Biodragon Inc., #BD-PT2840), and SBT (Huabio, #ER1903-97). .. To each sample was added 0.4 mL of a 1 m sodium hydroxide and methanol (1:1 v/v) mixture, along with 10 μL of D4-alanine (10 m m ) and three tungsten carbide beads (3 mm diameter) for solid samples, followed by vortex mixing for 30 s. Solid samples underwent further homogenization using a TissueLyser II (Qiagen, USA) at 30 Hz for 1 min.
