Biomedical materials are biomaterials that are manufactured or processed to be suitable for use as medical devices (or components thereof) and that are usually intended to be in long-term contact with biological materials. Examples of biomedical materials are prostheses, reconstituted tissues and intravenous catheters.
A deep-learning framework identifies peptides that show antimicrobial activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria, eradicate biofilms, and treat intestinal bacterial infection in mice.
The immune system is plastic, adaptable and context dependent. To effectively leverage its therapeutic potential and understand immune responses to bioengineered interventions, our scientific models and frameworks must reflect this same flexibility.
An inhalable nanoplatform responds to inflamed lung tissues by self-assembling into catalytically active fibrillar structures that locally decrease reactive oxygen species, relieve inflammation and alleviate viral pneumonia symptoms.
