Abstract: The present invention relates to an in vitro method of generating cells capable of differentiating to a multicellular organoid unit that morphologically and/or functionally recapitulates invasive and/or ductal cell growth. The present invention further relates to a method of screening for an anti-migratory drug using a multicellular organoid unit obtained in the in vitro method. Additionally, the present invention relates to a culture medium and the respective use of said culture medium in any of said methods according to the present invention.

Abstract: A clothing wire for clothed elements for use in textile machines includes a root, and a blade, the root and blade having an overall combined wire height (h1) of 1.5 mm to 15 mm. The clade includes teeth having a tooth depth (h6) of 0.5 mm to 10 mm, and having a tooth pitch (p) of 1.5 mm to 15 mm. Viewed in a first working direction of the clothing wire, the teeth have a first tip with a first working angle (?), and viewed in a second working direction of the clothing wire, the teeth have a second tip with a second working angle (?). At each tooth, the first tip is joined to the second tip via a concave tip face. A height difference (E) of 0.02 mm to 0.5 mm is defined between the second tip and the first tip.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of producing nano- and microcapsules from spider silk proteins The invention is further directed to nano- or microcapsules obtainable by this method as well as pharmaceutical, cosmetical and food compositions containing same.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device and method of controlling the phase separation of one or a mixture of two or more spider silk proteins, leading to the defined and controllable assembly of the said silk protein(s) to defined morphologies, such as spheres, nano fibrils, threads, etc.
