BACKGROUND: To enhance the accuracy of allergen detection in cosmetic compounds, we developed a co-culture system that combines HaCaT keratinocytes (transfected with a luciferase plasmid driven by the AKR1C2 promoter) and THP-1 cells for machine lear...
In recent years, there have been significant advancements in the research of Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus (SFTSV). However, several limitations and challenges still exist. For instance, researchers face constraints regarding expe...

The precise delivery of biofunctionalized matters is of great interest from the fundamental and applied viewpoints. In spite of significant progress achieved during the last decade, a parallel and automated isolation and manipulation of rare analyte,...
Carbon dots (CDs) are emerging as next-generation bioimaging agents due to their strong fluorescence, photobleaching resistance, and biocompatibility. However, their small size often limits efficient cell internalization, leading to unspecified cellu...
The rapid advancement of implantable biomedical materials necessitates a comprehensive understanding of macrophage interactions to optimize implant immunocompatibility. Macrophages, key immune regulators, exhibit phenotypic plasticity by polarizing i...
