Ultrasound-Induced Ferroelectric Biomagnetism: Programming Cellular Ion Channels with Picotesla Magnetic Fields to Elicit Regenerative Osteogenesis in Non-Unions

Ultrasound-Induced Ferroelectric Biomagnetism: Programming Cellular Ion Channels with Picotesla Magnetic Fields to Elicit Regenerative Osteogenesis in Non-Unions

Fracture non-unions, where bone healing fails to progress without intervention, represent a significant clinical challenge, affecting up to 10% of fractures and leading to prolonged disability and economic burden. Current treatments, such as bone grafting or electrical stimulation, often fall short in efficacy or scalability. Emerging evidence suggests that biophysical

Mycoprotein Neuroplasticity: Leveraging Fungal Biosynthesis to Engineer Neuronal Damage Mitigation in Industrial Solvent-Exposed Populations

Mycoprotein Neuroplasticity: Leveraging Fungal Biosynthesis to Engineer Neuronal Damage Mitigation in Industrial Solvent-Exposed Populations

Industrial solvents, such as toluene, xylene, and trichloroethylene, are ubiquitous in manufacturing, painting, and chemical processing industries, exposing millions of workers worldwide to neurotoxic risks. Chronic exposure to these volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can lead to neuronal damage, manifesting as cognitive impairments, reduced neuroplasticity, and increased susceptibility to neurodegenerative disorders.
