NANOSILICA-ANCHORED POLYCAPROLACTONE/CHITOSAN NANOFIBROUS BIOSCAFFOLD TO BOOST OSTEOGENESIS FOR BONE TISSUE ENGINEERING

Nanosilica-Anchored Polycaprolactone/Chitosan Nanofibrous Bioscaffold to Boost Osteogenesis for Bone Tissue Engineering

The strategy of incorporating bioactive inorganic nanomaterials without side effects as osteoinductive supplements is promising for bone regeneration.In this work, a novel biomass nanofibrous scaffold synthesized by electrospinning silica (SiO2) nanoparticles into polycaprolactone/chitosan (PCL/CS) nanofibers was reported for bone tissue engineerin

Pro-excitatory alterations in sodium channel activity facilitate subiculum neuron hyperexcitability in temporal lobe epilepsy

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a common form of adult epilepsy involving the limbic structures of the temporal lobe.Subiculum neurons act to provide a major output from the hippocampus and consist of a large population of endogenously bursting excitatory neurons.In TLE, subiculum neurons are largely spared, become hyperexcitable and show spontaneo

Special report: Pacific media freedom 2011: A status report

Pacific media freedom has been under siege for more than a decade, particularly since an attempted coup in Fiji in May 2000, when a television station was attacked and ransacked, a foreign journalist was shot and wounded and a local journalist ended up being imprisoned for treason.Since then various Pacific countries, notably Fiji, Papua New Guinea
