Inactivation of AXL in Cardiac Fibroblasts Alleviates Right Ventricular Remodeling in Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive condition with high morbidity and mortality, largely owing to right ventricular (RV) failure resulting from maladaptive remodeling. Our study provides strong evidence in support of a critical, detrimental role for AXL as a previously unrecognized determinant driving RV fibrotic pathology in PH.

Engineering Oxygen‐Terminated Hexagonal MBene for Accelerated Lithium Migration and Exceptional Lithium‐Ion Battery Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The synthesis of ultrathin Ti‐based 2D hexagonal transition metal borides (TiBTx h‐MBene) via ZnCl2 molten salt and the formed disorderly low‐boiling‐point Zn‐In intermediate, followed by TBAOH delamination. The delaminated structure, with O‐ and Cl‐terminations, improves Li‐ion transport, achieving 530 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1 and 120 mAh g−1 at 10 A g−1,

AP2M1 Amplification Orchestrates Notch‐Mediated Chemoresistance in Hematopoietic Stem Cells of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The precise regulation of AP2M1 is essential for normal hematopoiesis. Overexpression of AP2M1 negatively affects the clinical outcomes of AML patients. Upregulation of AP2M1 enhances stemness and chemoresistance in HSPC cells of AML. AP2M1 modulates NOTCH1 expression, enhancing the Notch1 signaling pathway.
