Elimination of olfactory sensory neurons by zinc sulfate inoculation prevents SARS-CoV-2 infection of the brain in K18-hACE2 transgenic mice by Ji-Hun Lee, Eun-Seon Yoo, Na-Won Kim, Won-Yong Shim, Han-Bi Jeong, Dong-Hyun Kim, Young-Jun Park, Sun-Min Seo, Jun-Won Yun, Jun Won Park, Kang-Seuk Choi, Ho-Young Lee, Jun-Young Seo, Ki Taek Nam, Je Kyung Seong, Yang-Kyu Choi

“…One of the prevailing hypotheses is that SARS-CoV-2 travels through the olfactory nerve system via the olfactory epithelium (OE). Using a K18-human angiotensin converting-enzyme 2 (hACE2) transgenic mouse model with impaired olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) induced by zinc sulfate, we examined the role of the olfactory nerve in the brain invasion by SARS-CoV-2. …”

Placental ischemia during pregnancy induces hypertension, cerebral inflammation, and oxidative stress in dams postpartum by Savanna Smith, Jonna Smith, Kylie Jones, Angie Castillo, Natalia Wiemann, Ahfiya Howard, Mark Cunningham

“…We hypothesize that blood pressure (BP), cerebral oxidative stress, and cerebral inflammation will increase in postpartum (PP) placental ischemic dams.Methods Placental ischemia was induced in pregnant Sprague Dawley dams, utilizing reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) surgery. At 6 weeks PP (~3 human years), BP was measured via carotid catheterization, and cerebral oxidative stress and inflammation were assessed via ELISAs, biochemical assays, and Western blots.Results BP, cerebral pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6), and GFAP (a marker of astrocyte activity) were increased in PP RUPP dams. …”

Smart Driving Hardware Augmentation by Flexible Piezoresistive Sensor Matrices with Grafted‐on Anticreep Composites by Kaifeng Chen, Hua Yang, Ang Wang, Linsen Tang, Xin Zha, Ndeutala Selma Iita, Hong Zhang, Zhuoxuan Li, Xinyu Wang, Wei Yang, Shaoxing Qu, Zongrong Wang

“…Abstract Signal drift and hysteresis of flexible piezoresistive sensors pose significant challenges against the widespread applications in emerging fields such as electronic skin, wearable equipment for metaverse and human‐AI (artificial intelligence) interfaces. To address the creep and relaxation issues associated with pressure‐sensitive materials, a highly stable piezoresistive composite is proposed, using polyamide‐imide (PAI) fibers as the matrix and in situ grafted‐polymerized polyaniline (PANI) as the semi‐conducting layer. …”
