On‐Demand Sintering of Gold Nanoparticles via Controlled Removal of o‐Nitrobenzyl Thiol Ligands Under Record‐Low Power for Conductive Patterns by Jisun Im, Charles Heaton, Nur R. E. Putri, Changxu Liu, Junichi Usuba, Kevin Butler, Michael Fay, Grace G. D. Han, Helia Hooshmand, Adam Thompson, Ricky Wildman, Richard Hague, Lyudmila Turyanska, Christopher Tuck

“…Abstract Metal nanoparticles‐based nanoinks have shown potential for fabricating metallic components essential to the realization of innovative 3D‐printed electronic devices. However, fabricating metallic patterns on flexible, heat‐sensitive substrates remains challenging due to high temperature and high energy sources, such as intense pulsed light (IPL), involved in the sintering process. …”

Poor glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes compromises leukocyte oxygen consumption rate, OXPHOS complex content and neutrophil-endothelial interactions by Julia Cacace, Clara Luna-Marco, Alberto Hermo-Argibay, Catherine Pesantes-Somogyi, Omar A. Hernández-López, María Pelechá-Salvador, Celia Bañuls, Nadezda Apostolova, Luis de Miguel-Rodríguez, Carlos Morillas, Milagros Rocha, Susana Rovira-Llopis, Víctor M. Víctor

“…Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are critical players in the inflammatory process that underlies T2D. Poor glycaemic control in T2D is closely linked to the development of comorbidities.Our aim was to evaluate if glycaemic control in T2D has an impact on the oxygen consumption rates (OCR) of PBMC, OXPHOS complexes and inflammation.We recruited 181 subjects, consisting of 79 healthy controls, 64 patients with T2D and good glycaemic control (HbA1c<7 %), and 38 T2D patients with poor glycaemic control (HbA1c>7 %).We found a decrease in the basal OCR of PBMCs from patients with HbA1c>7 % with respect to controls (p < 0.05). …”
