Interplay between up-regulation of cytochrome-c-oxidase and hemoglobin oxygenation induced by near-infrared laser
(NatureDepartment of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 2016-08-03)Photobiomodulation, also known as low-level laser/light therapy (LLLT), refers to the use of red-tonear-infrared light to stimulate cellular functions for physiological or clinical benefits. The mechanism of LLLT is assumed ... -
Investigation of Copper Cysteamine Nanoparticles as a New Type of Radiosensitiers for Colorectal Carcinoma Treatment
(Scientific ReportsDepartment of Physics, University of Texas at Arlington, 2017-08-24)Copper Cysteamine (Cu-Cy) is a new photosensitizer and a novel radiosensitizer that can be activated by light, X-ray and microwave to produce singlet oxygen for cancer treatment. However, the killing mechanism of Cu-Cy ... -
Lung protection by inhalation of exogenous solubilized extracellular matrix
(PLoS ONEDepartment of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 2017-02-02)Decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) contains complex tissue-specific components that work in concert to promote tissue repair and constructive remodeling and has been used experimentally and clinically to accelerate ... -
Measurement, Education and Tracking in Integrated Care (METRIC): use of a culturally adapted education tool versus standard education to increase engagement in depression treatment among Hispanic patients: study protocol for a randomized control trial
(BioMed Central Ltd. (BMC)School of Social Work, The University of Texas at Arlington, 2017-08-03)Significant mental health disparities exist for Hispanic populations, especially with regard to depression treatment. Stigma and poor communication between patients and their providers result in low use of antidepressant ... -
The Mechanisms and Biomedical Applications of an NIR BODIPY-Based Switchable Fluorescent Probe
(MDPIDepartment of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 11 Februar)Highly environment-sensitive fluorophores have been desired for many biomedical applications. Because of the noninvasive operation, high sensitivity, and high specificity to the microenvironment change, they can be used ... -
An optical probe for detecting chondrocyte apoptosis in response to mechanical injury
(Springer NatureDepartment of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 07 Septemb)Cartilage injury induced by acute excessive contact stress is common and mostly affects young adult. Although early detection of cartilage injury may prevent serious and lifelong arthritic complications, early detection ... -
Optical Refractive Index Sensing Based on High-Q Bound States in the Continuum in Free-Space Coupled Photonic Crystal Slabs
(MDPIDepartment of Electrical Engineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 2017-08-11)High sensitivity (S) and high quality factor (Q) are desirable to achieve low detection limit in label-free optical sensors. In this paper, we theoretically demonstrate that single-layer and coupled bi-layer photonic crystal ... -
Prefrontal responses to digit span memory phases in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): A functional near infrared spectroscopy study
(Elsevier Inc.Department of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 2014)Neuroimaging studies of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-related memory impairments have consistently implicated abnormal activities in the frontal and parietal lobes. However, most studies have used block designs ... -
Relationship between engagement and level of functional status in older adults
(SageCollege of Nursing and Health Innovation, The University of Texas Arlington, 2017)Functional status is an important component of quality of life for older adults and for their caregivers. Factors associated with level of functional status include age, comorbidity, cognitive status, depression, social ... -
Self-propulsion of Leidenfrost Drops between Non-Parallel Structures
(Springer NatureDepartment of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 20 Septemb)In this work, we explored self-propulsion of a Leidenfrost drop between non-parallel structures. A theoretical model was first developed to determine conditions for liquid drops to start moving away from the corner of two ...
