β-Defensin gene copy number variation in cattle

Royal Society Open Science
β-Defensins are peptides with antimicrobial roles, characterized by a conserved tertiary structure. Beyond antimicrobial functions, they exhibit diverse roles in both the immune response and fertility, including involvement in sperm maturation and ...

A Robot‐Assisted Remote Rehabilitation System for Ankle Fractures Based on Predictive Force and Full‐Cycle Training Strategy

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a robot‐assisted remote rehabilitation system for postoperative ankle fractures. The 2.634 kg modular system uses wireless control and deep learning to predict force delays, achieving 100 Hz control (normalized root mean square error ≤ 10.89%).

Anchoring Morphological Representations Unlocks Latent Proprioception in Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The authors present ProSoRo, a proprioceptive soft robot that anchors morphological states to a single internal reference frame and employs a multimodal variational autoencoder for crossmodal inference, revealing latent proprioception that enables accurate force and shape estimation, interpretable morphing primitives, robust sim‐to‐real transfer, and ...

Microendovascular Neural Recording from Cortical and Deep Vessels with High Precision and Minimal Invasiveness

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Intravascular electroencephalography (ivEEG) using micro‐intravascular electrodes was developed. Cortical‐vein ivEEG showed a higher signal‐to‐noise ratio and finer spatial resolution of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) than superior sagittal sinus ivEEG, and deep‐vein ivEEG captured clear visual evoked potentials.

Electrochemical ⍺‐C─H Functionalization of Nitramines for Accessing Bifunctional Energetic Heterocycles

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
An electrochemical α‐C─H functionalization of nitramines enables the synthesis of molecules containing bifunctional energetic heterocycles with promising properties. A telescoped, HNO3‐free sequence involving nitration and azolation steps offers a safer, modular, and scalable platform for the synthesis of energetic compounds.

Effect of cryopreservation and semen extender on extracellular vesicles isolated from bull semen

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionSemen cryopreservation is the most popular practice for semen production for artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization in cattle. The Seminal plasma contains extracellular vesicles (spEVs) which modulate sperm viability and function ...

Optical Fiber‐Based Versatile Wearable Force Myography System: Application to Human–Robot Interaction

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A compact and flexible wearable force myography sensor based on optical fiber technology detects muscle activity through pressure‐induced light loss. The sensor offers high sensitivity for detecting subtle force and finger motion changes, along with excellent signal stability under dynamic and sweating conditions.

Tissue‐Resident Myeloid and Histiocytic Cells in Health and Disease: Novel Emerging Concepts

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although all myeloid cells are considered to derive from hematopoietic stem cells, the cells in each myeloid lineage are heterogeneous populations, and their distribution and functions vary, depending on underlying physiologic and pathologic processes, age, sex, and genetic and epigenetic signatures.
