Red Blood Cell‐Derived Exosomal miR‐93‐5p Promotes Lung Cancer Progression through PTEN Suppression
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Red blood cell (RBC)‐derived exosomal miR‐93‐5p is elevated in lung cancer patients and correlates with poor outcomes. Exosomal miR‐93‐5p suppresses PTEN in cancer cells, enhancing proliferation, migration, and invasion. In mouse models, therapeutic inhibition with ASO‐miR‐93 5p reduces tumor growth, highlighting a bidirectional tumor‐RBC‐tumor axis ...

Biodegradable Adhesive Systems for Bio‐Integrated Applications
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Biodegradable adhesives provide temporary yet reliable adhesion while degrading into safe, non‐toxic by‐products under physiological or environmental conditions. This review summarizes recent developments in physical and chemical adhesion mechanisms—including hydrogen bonding, catechol chemistry, amine‐carboxyl coupling, and emerging diazirine and urea

Spatio-Temporal Deep Learning Models for Tip Force Estimation During Needle Insertion
, 2019 Purpose. Precise placement of needles is a challenge in a number of clinical applications such as brachytherapy or biopsy. Forces acting at the needle cause tissue deformation and needle deflection which in turn may lead to misplacement or injury. Hence,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from TGF‐β‐activated CAFs are enriched with ECM proteins such as TSG6 and THBS1, which facilitate their binding to recipient cell membranes. This EV–cell interaction promotes the clustering of CD44 and TGF‐β receptors on the target cell surface, thereby potentiating TGF‐β signaling activity. This study highlights a

Piezoelectric needle sensor reveals mechanical heterogeneity in human thyroid tissue lesions. [PDF]
, 2019 Palpable thyroid lesions are common, and although mostly benign, lethal malignant nodules do occur and may be difficult to differentiate. Here, we introduce the use of a piezoelectric system called Smart-touch fine needle (or STFN) mounted directly onto ...

Microscopic observations of needle and soft-tissue simulant interactions [PDF]
, 2011 Currently, physicians have no means of correctly estimating the needle tip location during percutaneous needle insertion. A model of needle-tissue interaction that predicts the needle tip location would assist physicians in pre-operative planning and ...
