https://www.selleckchem.com/products/yo-01027.html little is known about the collagen fibril structure in these diseases. We report here a comprehensive ultrastructural evaluation of the collagen fibrils in AAA, using high-resolution microscopy techniques like transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). We elucidate how abnormal collagen fibrils with compromised D-periodicity and increased fibril curvature are present in the vascular tissue in both clinical AAA as well as in murine models. We discuss how these abnormal collagen fibrils are likely a consequence of mechanical overload accompanying AAA and could impact the functional properties of the underlying tissue. A series of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) hydrogels containing cross-linked β-cyclodextrin-hyaluronan (β-CD-crHA), with tear protein adsorption resistance and sustained drug delivery, were developed as contact lens materials for eye diseases. β-CD-HA was synthesized from aminated β-CD and HA and then crosslinked within pHEMA hydrogel using polyethylenimine as a crosslinker. The synthesized β-CD-HA was characterized by 1H NMR analysis, and β-CD-crHA immobilized in pHEMA hydrogel was confirmed by FT-IR, SEM, and AFM analyses. The incorporation of β-CD-crHA significantly improved the surface hydrophilicity, water uptake ability, oxygen permeability, and flexibility of pHEMA hydrogel, but did not compromise light transmission. pHEMA/β-CD-crHA hydrogels not only decreased the tear protein adsorption because of the electrostatically mutual repulsion and the improved hydrophilicity, leading to the reduced adhesion of Staphylococcus aureus on the hydrogel surface, but also enhanced the encapsulation capacxpense of systemic side-effects. Drug-loaded contact lenses, as an alternative of eye drops, possess many good performances and show potential applications. However, the sustained drug delivery and the tear protein adsorption resistance are still challenging for contact
