    Description: Surface structuring of titanium-based implants with appropriate nanotopographies can significantly modulate their impact on the biological behavior of cells populating these implants. Implant assisted bone tissue repair and regeneration require functional adhesion and expansion of bone progenitors. The surface nanotopography of implant materials used to support bone healing and its effect on cell behavior, in particular cell adhesion, spreading, expansion, and motility, is still not clearly understood. The aim of this study is to investigate preosteoblast proliferation, adhesion, morphology, and migration on different titanium materials with similar surface chemistry, but distinct nanotopographical features. Sonochemical treatment and anodic oxidation were employed to fabricate disordered – mesoporous titania (TMS), and ordered – titania nanotubular (TNT) topographies respectively. The morphological evaluation revealed a surface dependent shape, thickness, and spreading of cells owing to different adherence behavior. Cells were polygonal-shaped and well-spread on glass and TMS, but displayed an elongated fibroblast-like morphology on TNT surfaces. The cells on glass however, were much flatter than on nanostructured surfaces. Both nanostructured surfaces impaired cell adhesion, but TMS was more favorable for cell growth due to its support of cell attachment and spreading in contrast to TNT. Quantitative wound healing assay in combination with live-cell imaging revealed that cells seeded on TMS surfaces migrated in close proximity to neighboring cells and less directed when compared to the migratory behavior on other surfaces. The results indicate distinctly different cell adhesion and migration on ordered and disordered titania nanotopographies, providing important information that could be used in optimizing titanium-based scaffold design to foster bone tissue growth and repair.

    Notes: A textured dielectric substrate for a broadband miniature antenna was fabricated using a thermoplastic green machining. This substrate comprised of three steps with optimized distribution of a dielectric ceramic (Bi–Ba–Nd–Titania; BBNT) and an epoxy. At first, a thermoplastic compound, consisting of BBNT particles and thermoplastic binders, was machined precisely using a mini-computer numeric controlled machine to make a three-dimensional void in the green BBNT body. After appropriate binder removal and sintering, the void in the dense BBNT block was filled with an epoxy to fabricate a textured dielectric substrate. The BBNT sample was characterized by several analyzing tools in terms of machinability, microstructural evolutions, chemical compositions, crystalline phase, and dielectric properties. Bandwidth and gain of the patch antenna with the textured dielectric substrate were measured and compared with the simulated results.

    Notes: A spatially variant dielectric Ca–Mg–silicate (CMS)/Bi–Ba–Nd–titania (BBNT) composite, in which periodic BBNT inclusions were embedded in the CMS matrix, was fabricated using the thermoplastic extrusion. The co-firing behavior of the composite was evaluated in terms of its shrinkage compatibility, thermoplastic compatibility, and chemical compatibility. The noticeable shrinkage mismatch between CMS and BBNT materials was observed. Such shrinkage mismatch strongly affected the interfacial bonding types of the composites. The good interfacial bonding was observed for the composite having BBNT inclusions in the CMS matrix; however, the interfacial cracking and matrix cracking for the opposite design (i.e., CMS inclusions in the BBNT matrix). In addition, the (Ca, Zn)-rich glassy phase in the CMS region migrated into the BBNT region, forming an interfacial reaction layer. The dielectric properties of the CMS, BBNT, and CMS–BBNT mixture were measured to evaluate the spatially variant dielectric CMS/BBNT composite as a novel dielectric substrate.

    Notes: This paper analyses the problem of water affordability in Great Britain. The use and meaning of the term ‘affordability’ are discussed in relation to the domestic or household customers of the British water industry. Using microeconomic data from the Family Resources Survey, affordability is calibrated by income group and household composition for Scotland, England and Wales. Whilst measurement or calibration is the primary focus of the paper, the related question of the way in which an affordability threshold or benchmark might be established is considered. A critique of the various financial support mechanisms currently available to households encountering difficulties in paying water and sewerage charges is followed by a discussion of the policy implications of the research and the way in which it relates to the wider social inclusion agenda of central government.

    Notes: The molecular processes underlying alcohol dependence are not fully understood. Many characteristic behaviours result from neuroadaptations in the mesocorticolimbic system. In addition, alcoholism is associated with a distinct neuropathology. To elucidate the molecular basis of these features, we compared the RNA expression profile of the nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex of human brain from matched individual alcoholic and control cases using cDNA microarrays. Approximately 6% of genes with a marked alcohol response were common to the two brain regions. Alcohol-responsive genes were grouped into 11 functional categories. Predominant alcohol-responsive genes in the prefrontal cortex were those encoding DNA-binding proteins including transcription factors and repair proteins. There was also a down-regulation of genes encoding mitochondrial proteins, which could result in disrupted mitochondrial function and energy production leading to oxidative stress. Other alcohol-responsive genes in the prefrontal cortex were associated with neuroprotection/apoptosis. In contrast, in the nucleus accumbens, alcohol-responsive genes were associated with vesicle formation and regulation of cell architecture, which suggests a neuroadaptation to chronic alcohol exposure at the level of synaptic structure and function. Our data are in keeping with the previously reported alcoholism-related pathology characteristic of the prefrontal cortex, but suggest a persistent decrease in neurotransmission and changes in plasticity in the nucleus accumbens of the alcoholic.
