1. Mechanisms involved in macrophage phagocytosis of apoptotic cells
Abstract : Efficient removal of apoptotic cells is critical for development, tissue remodelling, maintenance of homeostasis, and response to injury. Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is mediated by many phagocytic receptors, soluble bridging molecules, and pro-phagocytic ligands on the surface of apoptotic cells. READ MORE

2. Human embryonic stem cells for bone engineering applications
Abstract : The human skeleton represents the supporting structure of the organism and accounts for about 20 percent of the total body mass. Despite its intrinsic capacity to regenerate and self-repair, this ability is limited and repair therapies are needed in a large number of clinical cases. READ MORE

3. Cryogels Based on Crosslinked Cells as Green Biocatalysts for Biotechnology
Abstract : Abstract Due to the finite nature of fossil resources and their environmental impact, such as greenhouse gases and climate change, the bio-based production of chemicals, materials and fuels is the subject of extensive research in industrial biotechnology. Biotransformation and fermentation are considered to be mild, “green” processes that make use of effective and reliable biocatalysts to provide bio-based chemicals. READ MORE

5. Interfacial Analysis and Charge Transfer in Solar Cells
Abstract : Harnessing sunlight through solar cells is vital for sustainable energy production. The conventional architecture of a solar cell consists of multilayers of materials, each serving a particular function. The absorbing layer converts the solar energy into valuable electricity by the photovoltaic effect. READ MORE
