Trackable Tolerogenic Macrophages Integrate PD‐L1 and Rapamycin Signaling to Suppress Alloimmune Responses in Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed a macrophage‐based therapeutic platform, termed trackable tolerogenic macrophages (TTM), for dual‐function immunomodulation and visualization in vivo. TTM cells were engineered to overexpress PD‐L1, incorporate bioorthogonal cell surface tags, and load rapamycin for sustained release.

Catechol Derivative‐Based Bioadhesives: Molecular Design for Precision Medical Adhesion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study utilizes tree‐inspired side‐chain engineering to graft five catechol derivatives onto PVA, systematically revealing how side‐chain length and substituents regulate adhesion and cohesion properties. Among them, the PVA‐CA patch demonstrates superior tissue adhesion, biocompatibility, and promotes regeneration, establishing a programmable ...

Rapid Design and Fabrication of Body Conformable Surfaces with Kirigami Cutting and Machine Learning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By integrating the principles of kirigami cutting and data‐driven modeling, this study aims to develop a personalized, rapid, and low‐cost design and fabrication pipeline for creating body‐conformable surfaces around the knee joint. This pipeline presents a balanced trade‐off between conformability performance and cost for personalizing wearables, thus

Supervised exercise training as an adjunctive therapy for venous leg ulcers: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Venous leg ulcers are common, chronic wounds that are painful and reduce quality of life. Compression therapy is known to assist in the healing of venous leg ulceration.

First Successful Regeneration of a Structurally Native‐Like Colon Using a Bioabsorbable Polymer Sheet

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrated that a bioabsorbable polymer sheet (BAPS) can regenerate approximately half the circumference of the colon with native‐like structure and function in an experimental setting. As the model involved immediate closure after perforation and did not reproduce peritonitis, caution is required when considering clinical applicability ...

Soft Magnetic Sensor Array for Amphibious Measurement of 3D Muscle Deformation Distribution for Human Motion Recognition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article develops a soft magnetic sensor array to extract 3D and distributional muscle deformations, which has highly consistent measurements in amphibious environments, robustness to hydraulic pressure, and about 200 ms faster response than an inertial measurement unit, achieving over 98% classification accuracy and below 3% phase estimation ...

Phylogenomics reveals the evolution of floral traits associated with pollinators and pollinator–prey conflict within the carnivorous Pinguicula subgenus Temnoceras

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The carnivorous plant genus Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) exhibits remarkable floral diversity associated with pollination, particularly in the largest subgenus Temnoceras, which spans Mexico and Central America. Despite this diversity, the relationships between species and the evolution of key floral traits remain unresolved. Here, we

Biocompatibility and healing patterns in experimentally induced canine tibial fractures using Pedicle screw‐Rod external fixation

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that using a Pedicle screw‐Rod configuration for the external fixation of non‐articular tibial osteotomy aligns well with the principles of biological osteosynthesis, resulting in secondary bone healing characterized by callus formation and neovascularization.
