Colorectal Cancer Cell's Weapon: RNF32 Engages SPP1+ Macrophages to Foster Liver Metastasis, Targeted by Indole‐3‐Acetic Acid

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic RNF32 fuels CRC liver metastasis by degrading GSK3β, which stabilizes β‐catenin and activates Wnt/EMT. Moreover, RNF32 rewires the metastatic niche: it depletes CD8+/CD4+ T and NK cells while recruiting SPP1+ macrophages (which boost tumor stemness via CD44), fibroblasts, and immunosuppressive monocytes to aid colonization.

Selective Confinement by a COF‐Derived Sub‐Nanoporous Interface for High‐Performance CoF2 Thermal Battery Cathodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dissolution and shuttling of TMF cathodes hinders high‐voltage thermal batteries. A novel selective confinement strategy using a sub‐nanoporous COF‐derived carbon interface (0.54 nm pores) on CoF2 suppresses cathode material shuttling. Size‐selective confinement blocks large dissolved ions (∼0.8 nm) while allowing Li⁺ passage, enhancing thermal battery

Modulation of Network Plasticity Opens Novel Therapeutic Possibilities in Cancer, Diabetes, and Neurodegeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plasticity changes of molecular networks form a cellular learning process. Signaling network plasticity promotes cancer, metastasis, and drug resistance development. 55 plasticity‐related cancer drug targets are listed (20 having already approved drugs, 9 investigational drugs, and 26 being drug target candidates).

Quasi‐Antipolar Nanoclusters Driven Superior Energy Storage in High‐Entropy Relaxor Ferroelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Quasi‐antipolar nanoclusters are engineered in lead‐free NaNbO3‐based high‐entropy relaxors that weaken polar nanoregion coupling and induce distinct ferroelectric transition under high fields to enable desirable polarization response. This breakthrough system achieves ultrahigh recoverable‐energy‐density (≈18.3 J cm−3), efficiency (≈91.5%), and ...

The Chemical Weapons Convention and the Role of Engineers and Scientists [PDF]

open access: yesKemija u Industriji, 2010
Chemical weapons, like all military technology, are associated with activities of scientists and engineers. However, chemical weapons differ from any other military technology because they were invented, and their first mass use directly developed by ...

A Conceptual Model to Identify Intent to Use Chemical-Biological Weapons

open access: yesJournal of Strategic Security, 2017
This paper describes a conceptual model to identify and interrelate indicators of intent of non-state actors to use chemical or biological weapons. The model expands on earlier efforts to understand intent to use weapons of mass destruction by building ...
