TL;DR: It is concluded that muscle hypertrophy is the result of accumulated intermittent increases in MyoPS mainly after a progressive attenuation of muscle damage.
Abstract: Key points Skeletal muscle hypertrophy is one of the main outcomes from resistance training (RT), but how it is modulated throughout training is still unknown. We show that changes in myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS) after an initial resistance exercise (RE) bout in the first week of RT (T1) were greater than those seen post-RE at the third (T2) and tenth week (T3) of RT, with values being similar at T2 and T3. Muscle damage (Z-band streaming) was the highest during post-RE recovery at T1, lower at T2 and minimal at T3. When muscle damage was the highest, so was the integrated MyoPS (at T1), but neither were related to hypertrophy; however, integrated MyoPS at T2 and T3 were correlated with hypertrophy. We conclude that muscle hypertrophy is the result of accumulated intermittent increases in MyoPS mainly after a progressive attenuation of muscle damage. Abstract Skeletal muscle hypertrophy is one of the main outcomes of resistance training (RT), but how hypertrophy is modulated and the mechanisms regulating it are still unknown. To investigate how muscle hypertrophy is modulated through RT, we measured day-to-day integrated myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS) using deuterium oxide and assessed muscle damage at the beginning (T1), at 3 weeks (T2) and at 10 weeks of RT (T3). Ten young men (27 (1) years, mean (SEM)) had muscle biopsies (vastus lateralis) taken to measure integrated MyoPS and muscle damage (Z-band streaming and indirect parameters) before, and 24 h and 48 h post resistance exercise (post-RE) at T1, T2 and T3. Fibre cross-sectional area (fCSA) was evaluated using biopsies at T1, T2 and T3. Increases in fCSA were observed only at T3 (P = 0.017). Changes in MyoPS post-RE at T1, T2 and T3 were greater at T1 (P

TL;DR: In this article, a revised, updated definition of glass-ceramics is proposed, which reads "glass-cerams are inorganic, non-metallic materials prepared by controlled crystallization of glasses via different processing methods.
Abstract: Glass-ceramics are noted for their unusual combination of properties and manifold commercialized products for consumer and specialized markets. Evolution of novel glass and ceramic processing routes, a plethora of new compositions, and unique exotic nano- and microstructures over the past 60 years led us to review the definition of glass-ceramics. Well-established and emerging processing methods, such as co-firing, additive manufacturing, and laser patterning are analyzed concerning the core requirements of processing glass-ceramics and the performance of the final products. In this communication, we propose a revised, updated definition of glass-ceramics, which reads “Glass-ceramics are inorganic, non-metallic materials prepared by controlled crystallization of glasses via different processing methods. They contain at least one type of functional crystalline phase and a residual glass. The volume fraction crystallized may vary from ppm to almost 100%”.

TL;DR: N nanostructured surfaces produced using aluminum oxide significantly enhanced the hMSC gene expression representative of osteoblast differentiation, suggesting nanoscale features on Ti implant substrates may improve the osseointegration response by altering adherent cell response.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed characterization of the magnetic properties of Ni nanoparticles embedded in a SiO2 amorphous matrix was performed using a modified sol-gel method which resulted in Ni particles with average radius ;3 nm, as inferred by TEM analysis.
Abstract: We have performed a detailed characterization of the magnetic properties of Ni nanoparticles embedded in a SiO2 amorphous matrix A modified sol-gel method was employed which resulted in Ni particles with average radius ;3 nm, as inferred by TEM analysis Above the blocking temperature TB’20 K for the most diluted sample, magnetization data show the expected scaling of the M/ MS vs H/T curves for superparamagnetic particles The hysteresis loops were found to be symmetric about zero field axis with no shift via exchange bias, suggesting that Ni particles are free from an oxide layer For T,TB the magnetic behavior of these Ni nanoparticles is in excellent agreement with the predictions of randomly oriented and noninteracting magnetic particles, as suggested by the temperature dependence of the coercivity field that obeys the relation HC(T)5HC0@12(T/TB) 1/2 # below TB with HC0;780 Oe The obtained values of HC0, considering the temperature dependence of the magnetic anisotropy constant, are discussed within the scenario of isolated randomly oriented and noninteracting single-domain particles
