Liquiritin enhances the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and promotes fracture healing through the activation of the ERK/JNK signaling pathway and by exerting antioxidant protective effects. Abstract Liquiritin, a flavonoid from Glycyrrhiza uralensis L., has diverse pharmacological properties, but its impact on fracture healing is unexplored.

Evolution of Ocular Organ‐On‐Chip Systems for Disease Modelling and Drug Testing: Where are We Now?
The rise in ophthalmic diseases due to aging, screen use, and environmental factors has driven demand for better ocular models. Traditional systems fall short, encouraging the development of organ‐on‐chip devices. These microfluidic platforms replicate eye tissue architecture, enable drug screening, and simulate ocular diseases.

Magnetoelectric nanoparticles exploit cancer cells' electrical vulnerabilities—altered membrane charge and higher capacitance—to achieve tumor‐specific targeting without bioreagents. MATLAB simulations reveal how electromagnetic forces create targeting specificity, while external magnetic fields enhance precision. This may enable wirelessly controlled,
