An Extracellular Pore‑Targeting Peptide Defines a Designable Allosteric Site in TRPV2
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Structure‐guided peptide engineering yields Depiv2, a highly potent and subtype‐selective TRPV2 inhibitor that binds to the extracellular pore and remodels it into a closed, non‐conductive state. Depiv2 suppresses pathological cardiac hypertrophy, establishing the TRPV2 outer pore as a designable interface for selective peptide modulation.

Bioinspired Metastable Transient Peeling for Repeatable Rapid Release
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by the explosive seed ejection of the squirting cucumber, this work introduces metastable transient peeling that temporally regulates stored interfacial energy release via a tunable energy barrier. A viscoelastic hemispherical gripper achieves 52 ms ultrafast, residue‐free release with 300 000‐cycle durability, enabling damage‐free handling of

Spontaneous Cyclic Levitation of Glycerol‐Water Droplets at Low Pressures
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Under low pressure, a minute glycerol addition transforms the chaotic dynamics of freezing water droplets into cyclic levitation. Freeze‐concentration preserves liquid pathways that relax expansion‐induced stress, while freezing point depression weakens asymmetric vaporization recoil.

Key gravity-sensitive signaling pathways drive T cell activation
, 2005 Returning astronauts have experienced altered immune function and increased vulnerability to infection during spaceflights dating back to Apollo and Skylab. Lack of immune response in microgravity occurs at the cellular level.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor in Nociceptors Mediates Postoperative Analgesia via ASIC3 Inhibition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.CB1R and ASIC3 are co‐expressed in CGRP+ nociceptors of mouse DRG. Plantar incision triggers an upregulation of ASIC3 and activation of ASIC3+ neurons, driving mechanical allodynia. CB1R activation suppresses ASIC3 function and downstream ERK1/2 phosphorylation, thereby braking nociceptive signaling and accelerating pain resolution.
