A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...

In this work, we present a bile‐based memristor hardware framework that enables direct, label‐free identification of cholelithiasis and gallbladder cancer at the device level. The Ag/bile/FTO memristor features stable resistive switching and disease‐specific electrical responses, providing a conceptual foundation for circuits and an integrated ERCP ...

The mechanobiological basis of atherosclerotic progression and its contribution to spatial and temporal heterogeneity remain incompletely understood. Spatially resolved AFM measurements revealed that plaque formation and distinct regions (cap fibrosis, intimal fibrosis, and lipid‐rich core) exhibit heterogeneous elastic modulus and viscoelastic ...

Nanoscale Buried Interface Control in Silicone Hydrogels Enables a Biointerface Engineering Platform
A hydrophilic coating with controllable nanoscale thickness is applied to commercial silicone hydrogel contact lenses. By combining comprehensive multi‐modal three‐dimensional characterization with an advanced algorithm, the thickness and chemical information of these multilayered structures are resolved.

Novel PLA@Fe3O4 magnetic microspheres were developed for transarterial magnetic hyperthermia ablation (MTA) of hepatocellular carcinoma. While destroying local tumors and inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD), MTA combined with early CpG adjuvant administration significantly promotes cDC1‐dependent immune priming. This synergistic mechanism effectively
