Although multilevel sociality is a universal feature of human social organization, its functional relevance remains unclear. Here, we investigated the effect of multilevel sociality on cumulative cultural evolution by using ...

Retrotransposons encompass half of the human genome and contribute to the formation of heterochromatin, which provides nuclear structure and regulates gene expression. Here, we asked if the human silencing hub (HUSH) complex ...

Hyaluronan (HA) is a highly abundant anionic polysaccharide found throughout mammalian connective tissues. Unlike other glycosaminoglycans, HA is non-sulfated and its alternating chemical structure is invariable. Despite ...

Hyaluronic acid (HA), the only non-sulphated glycosaminoglycan, serves numerous structural and biological functions in the human body, from providing viscoelasticity in tissues to creating hydrated environments for cell ...

The glycocalyx is the immediate pericellular matrix that surrounds many cell types, including endothelial cells (ECs), and is typically composed of glycans (glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, and glycoproteins). The ...

The photo irradiated thiol-norbornene reaction is increasingly used for the formation of 3D hydrogels for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. These hydrogels are crosslinked through reactions between multifunctional ...
