Recent Advances in Variable‐Stiffness Robotic Systems Enabled by Phase‐Change Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Phase‐change materials (PCMs), such as shape memory alloys, hydrogels, shape memory polymers, liquid crystal elastomers, and low‐melting‐point alloys, are driving advancements in stiffness‐tunable robotic systems across a wide range of applications. This review highlights recent progress in PCM‐enabled robotics, focusing on their underlying mechanisms,

Chitosan, Gelatine, and Cellulose Based Hydrogels for the Removal of Potentially Toxic Elements from Aquaculture Water: A Comparative Study

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Hydrogels made of chemically modified biopolymers are easy to prepare and cost‐effective, they have proven to be effective materials for the simultaneous removal of seven potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from ultrapure and real water samples. The cellulose‐based one seems the best for single treatments while the gelatine‐based one seems the most ...

Loss of NR2F6 Protects from Salmonella Typhimurium Infection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Loss of nuclear receptor NR2F6 reduces tissue‐resident macrophage populations. Nr2f6‐deficient mice are protected from weight loss and bacterial load during infection with Salmonella Typhimurium. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines and iron levels are altered in infected Nr2f6‐deficient mice.

Self‐Adjusting Engineered Probiotic for Targeted Tumor Colonization and Local Therapeutics Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Zou et al. developed an engineered strain of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 with precise targeting abilities for colonization and on‐demand payload release. The engineered probiotic survives and embolizes tumors only in the presence of more than 5 mM L‐lactate. Furthermore, the introduction of an α‐hemolysin circuit enhances its anti‐tumor effect.

Cathepsin K Aggravates Pulmonary Fibrosis Through Promoting Fibroblast Glutamine Metabolism and Collagen Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CTSK plays a critical role in pulmonary fibrosis. Excessive CTSK accumulation interacts with SNX9 to enhance TGF‐β1‐induced SMAD3 activation and GLS1 expression in fibroblasts, driving glutamine metabolism for collagen biosynthesis and exacerbating pulmonary fibrosis.
