Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

Small‐Scale Magnetic Peristaltic Soft Robot With Mobility and Transport Capabilities

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a miniature, untethered soft magnetic microrobot with peristaltic capabilities for both locomotion and cargo transport. Eight helically magnetized elastomeric strips deform under rotating fields (10–80 mT, 1–5 Hz), enabling movement across rods and lumina at up to 4.1 body lengths min‐¹.

Taxonomic reassessment of fossil Sequoia and Protosequoia from the Upper Miocene of Central Honshu, Japan, with implications for leaf morphological variation in extant S. sempervirens

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Since its emergence in the Mesozoic, Sequoia (Cupressaceae) has been considered to possess conserved leaf morphology. However, recent studies have shown that the leaves of extant S. sempervirens become smaller, with a scale form, with increasing tree height.

Biofilm Exoproteins From Staphylococcus Species Impede Re‐Epithelialization of Nasal Epithelial Cells During Wound Healing and Cease Ciliary Beat Frequency

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease with many different contributing factors, including bacterial infection. CRS patients are typically managed with medical therapies; however, these treatments frequently fail, leaving surgery as the only viable option.

Engraftment of sheep splenic lymphocytes into NBSGW mice and application in Brucella infection

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A sheep splenocyte‐reconstituted mouse model (Sh‐Spl mice) was established via intravenous injection of sheep splenic lymphocytes into immunodeficient mice to evaluate Brucella infection. Abstract Background The development of immune reconstituted xenograft mouse models has addressed the limitations imposed by interspecies immunological differences in ...

Human Leukocyte Elastase Triggered Nanoparticles for Targeted Antimicrobial Delivery and Oral Microbial Modulation

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study explores enzyme‐responsive nanoparticles for targeted antimicrobial release in inflamed oral environments. Nanoparticles formed by complexing peptides and chlorhexidine respond to human leukocyte elastase and release chlorhexidine selectively. P7 (ECAAPVCE)‐based formulations show optimal properties and stability, with antimicrobial activity
