Cerium oxide nanoparticles with antioxidative neurorestoration for ischemic stroke
Biomaterials. 2022 Nov 10;291:121904. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2022.121904. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOxidative stress and mitochondrial damage are the main mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury in ischemic stroke. Herein, cerium oxide nanoparticles with powerful free radical scavenging ability were used as carriers to load dl-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP-CeO2 NPs) for the combined treatment of ischemic stroke. NBP-CeO2 NPs could eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells and hippocampal neurons after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R), and also save mitochond...

Multicomponent material property characterization of atherosclerotic human carotid arteries through a Bayesian Optimization based inverse finite element approach
CONCLUSION: The developed iFEM approach combined with the inverted GP model successfully predicted component-wise material properties of intact atherosclerotic human carotids ex-vivo under physiological-like loading conditions.SIGNIFICANCE: We developed a novel iFEM framework for the nonlinear, component-wise material characterization of atherosclerotic arteries and utilized it to obtain human atherosclerotic carotid material properties. The developed iFEM framework has great potential to be advanced for patient-specific in-vivo application.PMID:34864574 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmbbm.2021.104996
