Viscoelasticity, Lubricity, and Wear Prevention of Cross‐Linked Mucin Gels
Physiologically, biolubrication by mucus reduces friction and protects tissues from tribological stress, with mucins playing a key role. This study compares mucin‐based gels with distinct crosslinking architectures to explore their effect on the lubrication and wear prevention abilities of reconstituted mucin gels.

Mucosa‐Interfacing Capsule for In Situ Sensing the Elasticity of Biological Tissues
A fundamental mechanism of palpating soft materials is reported to sense deep tissue elasticity in situ with minimal invasion using the interaction between the robot palpation unit and soft tissues. Both the robot locomotion and elasticity sensing functions are remotely controlled by external magnetic fields, while the sensing data are wirelessly ...

Upconversion‐Based Remote Deep Brain Modulation for Therapeutic Dissection of Parkinson's Disease
An upconversion‐based wireless optogenetic strategy enables an all‐optical deep brain modulation solution for treating Parkinson's disease in rodent animals without using electronics or any tethered cables, providing experimental evidence supporting a therapeutic mechanism of STN‐DBS by disruption of anterograde signal transmission along the indirect ...

Cold Plasma Generates a Localized Inflammatory Response and Promotes Muscle Repair
The immediate tissue response to plasma is a pro‐inflammatory response which is characterized by collagen clumping, innate immune cell infiltration, enhanced metabolic processes, and decreased apoptosis. The long‐term tissue response (4‐ and 14‐days) to plasma treatment is characterized by a decreased inflammatory response, decreased adipogenesis, and ...

PD‐L1 limits neuroinflammation in neovascular AMD by modulating microglial activation. Its deficiency exacerbates vascular leakage and choroidal neovascularization (CNV) via ERK signaling, while enhancing PD‐L1 reduces inflammation and neovascularization. Targeting PD‐L1 may offer a novel immunomodulatory strategy for NVAMD.
