Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.

The first hydrogel system employing anion–π interactions as a central design motif is developed. The cooperative aromatic–phosphate interaction motif provides dynamic cohesion and is proposed to regulate the separation and transport of water‐derived ionic species, achieving high piezoionic response in injectable, self‐healing, ultrasoft, low‐salinity ...

Robust attachment of hydrogels to solid substrates is critical to success in cell culture where hydrostatic and contractile forces can contribute to delamination of weakly adhered gels. This novel approach forms a nanometer‐scale, reagent‐free hydrogel primer layer to provide improved resistance to delamination of subsequent bulk hydrogel layers in a ...

Coarse‐grained (CG) molecular dynamics simulations were used to predict the upper critical solution temperature of copolymers obtained by radical ring‐opening copolymerization of cyclic ketene acetals and vinyl monomers, and to account for their unique degradation kinetics under physiological conditions by evaluating the solvation of their ester groups.

On‐Demand Deconstructable Thermosets Through Cleavable Comonomer and Thermolatent Base Synergy
Thermosets, valued for their chemical and mechanical properties, resist recycling due to their cross‐linked structure. Weak bonds via comonomers enable degradability, but diffusion limits effectiveness. We incorporate thermolatent bases before polymerization (thermal or 3D‐VAT printing).

Mechanistische Diversität in der photoangeregten Radikal‐Redoxchemie: Eine kritische Evaluierung
Für viele prominente Beispiele der Photoredox‐Katalyse wird angenommen, dass sie über die Anregung einer offenschaligen („open‐shell“) Zwischenform des Katalysators ablaufen. Es wird jedoch intensiv darüber diskutiert, ob solche Mechanismen realistisch sind und, falls ja, wie genau sie ablaufen können.

Supramolecular Mechanophore Additives Enable Mechanochromic Hydrogels
A supramolecular loop‐forming mechanophore featuring a quencher and an emitter is incorporated as a water‐soluble macromolecular additive into hydrogels. In the stress‐free state, intramolecular charge‐transfer interactions fold the loop and quench fluorescence.
