Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

The vesicle trafficking R‐SNARE VAMP714 connects auxin responses, ROS and ion homeostasis in Arabidopsis under salt stress

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 207-227, July 2026.
Network of VAMP714‐dependent interactions during salt stress. Summary Plant responses to salt stress include an altered root architecture mediated by ion imbalances, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, and altered hormonal responses. Auxin is implicated in these processes.

Oxygen Doping and Crystal–Amorphous Multiphase Coupling Synergistically Improve the Wear Resistance of NiTiCu Alloy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) show excellent performance in vibration damping and corrosion resistance. However, due to low hardness and lack of self‐lubrication, they suffer severe friction and wear during service. Although various strategies including doping and heterostructure design have been proposed, the effects are unsatisfactory.

Harnessing Trace Elements: Novel Radiosensitization Strategies for Enhanced Cancer Radiotherapy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the core methods of comprehensive cancer treatment. Globally, more than 40% of cancer patients rely on radiotherapy to achieve tumor control, cure or palliative relief. However, radiation resistance, immunosuppression and normal tissue injury limit its clinical application.

Titanium Implant Abutments With Polydopamine‐Mesoporous Cerium Dioxide Coatings for Enhanced Antibacterial, Anti‐Inflammatory, and Soft Tissue Integration Properties

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The poor soft tissue integration around titanium implants creates a microgap that serves as a pathway for pathogen invasion, resulting in infection, inflammation, and the progression of peri‐implantitis. As the implant’s transmucosal component, the abutment determines the degree of peri‐implant soft tissue attachment.

Designing Additive‐Manufactured High‐Performance CoCrNi Matrix Composites Based on Grain Boundary Segregation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Through grain boundary segregation engineering, a crack‐free high‐strength CoCrNi medium‐entropy alloy (MEA) can be successfully fabricated via laser powder bed fusion (PBF‐LB). The influence of micron‐sized TiC particles on microstructural evolution, grain boundary segregation behavior, and mechanical properties was systematically ...

An Ultrasound‐Triggered Antibacterial Hydrogel With Integrated Antioxidant and Angiogenic Functions for Infected Wound Care

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Managing diabetic wounds requires simultaneously addressing their infectious, oxidative, and regenerative impairments. To address this, this study integrates a piezoelectric BiOCl@CuSe heterojunction (PFM‐verified) into an injectable F127/HA hydrogel, creating an ultrasound‐responsive smart dressing.

A Dual Co‐Reactant Accelerator Based On Nanoreactor‐Encapsulated CeO2 Nanozymes to Drive Potentiated Luminol Cathodic Electrochemiluminescence for Ultrasensitive Immunoassay

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The precise quantification of cytokines is crucial for monitoring disease onset and progression. Herein, we developed a synergistic signal amplification approach by utilizing nanoreactor‐encapsulated CeO2 nanozymes, which were in situ electrodeposited within the mesoporous silica nanochannel film (SNF) grown on indium tin oxide (ITO ...

Investigating the Origin of Topological‐Hall‐Like Resistivity in Zn‐Doped Mn2Sb Ferrimagnet

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Skyrmions and other chiral spin textures have been extensively studied as potential building blocks for novel spintronic devices. Hall‐resistivity anomalies that deviate from magnetization scaling, known as the topological Hall effect, have been widely employed as evidence for the presence of chiral spin textures in magnetic materials. However,
