Force‐Electric Nanotentacles of Tantalum Implant Accelerate Cellular Energy Metabolism/Crosstalk for Immunomodulation‐Vascularized Bone Integration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic force‐electric nanotentacle‐enabled tantalum (Ta) implant with surface‐nanostructured LiTaO3 (n‐LiTaO3) was first developed via laser nanofabrication combined with Li+‐induced in situ reaction, enabling the transduction of ultrasound into bioelectrical cues.

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

Transient Sleep Deprivation Induces Persistent Auditory Neuropathy via ROS‐Initiated Neuroinflammation and BK Channel Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep disturbance severity closely tracks hearing loss in a clinical cohort, yet the mechanistic link remains unclear. Acute sleep deprivation is shown to trigger transient cochlear oxidative stress that switches into a self‐sustaining neuroinflammatory state, suppressing BK channels and causing irreversible synaptopathy.

Arthropod‐Inspired Miniature Modular Vibration Direct‐Drive Robot With Untethered Locomotion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an arthropod‐inspired untethered miniature modular vibration direct‐drive robot. By utilizing standardized driving units and nested locking interfaces, on‐demand reconfiguration into quadruped, hexapod, octopod, and circular morphologies is achieved.

Improved Vertical Load Carrying Capacity and Deformation Performance of Rammed Earth Houses With Agave Bagasse Fibers From the Tequila Industry

Advances in Civil Engineering
Earthen constructions are represented mainly by adobe structures and rammed earth, their presence in high seismic zones has demonstrated that this material may exhibit a brittle collapse due to the low resistance of the component materials and induced ...

Fiber–matrix interaction governs compressive strength in agave-bagasse-reinforced adobe: a factorial experiment with two-way ANOVA and competing mechanism analysis

Frontiers in Built Environment
Natural-fiber reinforcement is widely cited as a pathway to improve the mechanical performance of adobe, but reported effects on compressive strength are inconsistent across studies: some find improvement, others find degradation, and the choice of ...

SPRED2 Negatively Regulates CD8+ T Cell‐Mediated Antitumor Immunity in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sprouty‑related EVH1 domain containing 2 (SPRED2) restrains Ras/Raf/ERK signaling in CD8+ T cells. Host SPRED2 deficiency enhances T‐cell survival, cytotoxicity, and memory‐like phenotypes, reducing primary tumor growth and endpoint lung metastatic burden in breast cancer models.

Low‐Intensity Ultrasound‐Triggered Microbubble Cavitation Attenuates Diabetic Kidney Injury Partially by Reversing Endothelial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Non‐invasive low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound ‐triggered cavitation of clinically approved diagnostic‐grade microbubbles delivers favorable mechanical stimuli to renal microvasculature. This intervention restores renal microvascular homeostasis, alleviates DKD‐associated histological and functional damage, and suppresses inflammatory and fibrotic ...

A Multi‐Targeting Chimeric Antigen Receptor‐T Cell Platform to Overcome Antigen Heterogeneity in the Treatment of Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐transmembrane Bicephali CAR‐T platform simultaneously targets CD276 and NKG2D ligands to address antigen heterogeneity in non‐small cell lung cancer. By improving immune synapse formation, mitochondrial fitness, antioxidant capacity, and stem‐like persistence, this design enhances durable tumor control and provides a versatile strategy to ...

Neonatal Sevoflurane Exposure Induces Long‐Term Cognitive Impairment via Epigenetically Mediated MMP9 Activation and Perineuronal Net Disruption in the Hippocampal CA2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hippocampal CA2 perineuronal nets ensheathing excitatory pyramidal neurons are selectively vulnerable to repeated neonatal sevoflurane exposure. Epigenetic upregulation of MMP9 via reduced H3K27me3 disrupts PNN integrity, impairs BDNF–TrkB signaling, and causes synaptic protein loss and dendritic spine deficits, leading to persistent social and spatial
