All-Covalent Nuclease-Resistant and Hydrogel-Tethered DNA Hairpin Probes Map pN Cell Traction Forces

Sk Aysha Rashid et al.

Summary: Cells sense and respond to the physical properties of their environment through receptor-mediated signaling, a process known as mechanotransduction. Integrin forces transmitted by cells are highly sensitive to the substrate stiffness, with cells cultured on higher stiffness gels producing more hairpin unfolding events. This study provides a general strategy to integrate molecular tension probes into hydrogels and mimic in vivo mechanotransduction.

In Situ Inhibitor Synthesis and Screening by Fluorescence Polarization: An Efficient Approach for Accelerating Drug Discovery

Zhihong Li et al.

Summary: Target-directed dynamic combinatorial chemistry is an important tool in drug discovery, but faces challenges in analyzing complex mixtures. In this study, we propose a simple alternative called in situ inhibitor synthesis and screening (ISISS), which combines high-throughput bioorthogonal synthesis with screening for target binding using fluorescence. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the ISISS method in discovering a potent acylhydrazone-based inhibitor of human prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD2), a target for anemia treatment, with comparable in vivo potency to an approved medicine.

Pulse Duration Dependent Asymmetry in Molecular Transmembrane Transport Due to Electroporation in H9c2 Rat Cardiac Myoblast Cells In Vitro

Tina Batista Napotnik et al.

Summary: Electroporation is a successful method for intracellular drug delivery by temporarily permeabilizing plasma membrane with electric pulses. The orientation of cells in an electric field is crucial for electroporation and molecular transport. Different durations of electric pulses can impact the asymmetry of polar uptake of calcium ions, with longer pulses resulting in greater uptake at the cathode-side pole.
