Bottom-up synthesis of prototissues helps us to understand the internal cellular communications in the natural tissues and their functions, as well as to improve or repair the damaged tissues. The existed prototissues are rarely used to improve the function of living tissues. We demonstrated a methodology to produce spatially programmable prototissues based on the magneto-Archimedes effect in a high-throughput manner. More than 2000 prototissues are produced once within 2 hours. Two-component and three-component spatial coded prototissues are fabricated by varying the addition giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) order/number, and the magnetic field distributions. Two-step and three-step signal communications in the prototissues are realized using cascade enzyme reactions. More importantly, the two-component prototissues capable of producing nitric oxide (NO) cause vasodilation of rat blood vessels in the presence of glucose and hydroxyurea. The tension force decreases 2.59 g, meanwhile the blood vessel relaxation is of 31.2%. Our works pave the path to fabricate complicated programmable prototissues, and hold great potential in tissue transplantation in the biomedical field.

<div> <div> <div> <p>This article reviews prior work studying reaction kinetics in solution, with the goal of using this information to improve detailed kinetic modeling in the solvent phase. Both experimental and computational methods for calculating reaction rates in liquids are reviewed. Previous studies, which used such methods to determine solvent effects, are then analyzed based on reaction family. Many of these studies correlate kinetic solvent effect with one or more solvent parameters or properties of reacting species, but it is not always possible, and investigations are usually done on too few reactions and solvents to truly generalize. From these studies, we present suggestions on how best to use data to generalize solvent effects for many different reaction types in a high throughput manner. </p> </div> </div> </div>

The present paper is devoted to a study of the magnetic field configuration of our Galaxy based on Faraday rotation measures (RM) of 185 pulsars and 802 extragalactic radio sources. RM data of pulsars located near the plane of the Galaxy are used for the study of magnetic fields in neighbouring spiral arms. For the distribution of spiral arms the well-known model of Georgelin and Georgelin (1976) is used. The calculations show (for details see Andreassian and Makarov, 1987, 1989) that in the Perseus spiral arm and the local Orion arm the magnetic fields have approximately the same directions (lo;bo) ≈ (80°;0°), while in the Sagittarius-Carina arm the magnetic field has an opposite direction.

The magnetospheric responses to solar wind of Mercury, Earth, Jupiter and Uranus are compared via magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. The tilt angle of each planetary field and the polarity of solar wind are also considered. Magnetic reconnection is illustrated and explicated with the interaction between the magnetic field distributions of the solar wind and the magnetosphere.
