3D‐Printed Macroporous Resin Anode in Microbial Fuel Cell‐Based Biosensors for Efficient Biodegradable Organic Carbon Monitoring

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D‐printed gyroid resin anode for microbial fuel cell biosensors. Compared with carbon felt, it enables either a broader dynamic range or higher sensitivity, depending on the operation mode. By improving real‐time monitoring of organic load, these biosensors support more efficient process control and contribute to the goal of ...

Collective Memories of Portuguese Colonial Action in Africa: Representations of the Colonial Past among Mozambicans and Portuguese Youths

International Journal of Conflict and Violence, 2010
Social representations of the colonization and decolonization processes among young people from a former European colonial power (Portugal) and from an African ex-colony (Mozambique) were investigated through surveys using open- and closed-ended ...

The GLP1R Agonist Semaglutide Inhibits Reactive Astrocytes and Enhances the Efficacy of Neural Stem Cell Transplantation Therapy in Parkinson's Disease Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compared to transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) alone, the combined treatment of NSCs with semaglutide more effectively improves motor dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) mice. This synergistic effect may result from semaglutide's ability to suppress microglial activation, thereby preventing the transformation of resting astrocytes into ...

Advanced Microfluidics for Single Cell‐Based Cancer Research

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cutting‐edge microfluidic platforms are transforming single‐cell cancer research. This review highlights advanced technologies, from droplet microfluidics to tumour‐chips, that enable functional and spatial single‐cell analyses. By integrating biosensing, immune components, and patient‐derived materials, these systems offer new insights into tumour ...

Historical Origins of Schooling: The Role of Democracy and Political Decentralization [PDF]

Why does schooling attainment vary widely across countries? Why are differences in schooling attainment highly persistent? I show that cross-country differences in schooling are related to political institutions, such as democracy and local democracy ...

Cinobufagin Directly Targets PDE4D to Disrupt Fibroblast–Dendritic Cell Crosstalk in Atopic Dermatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing revealed that MIF signaling drives inflammatory fibroblastmyeloid cell crosstalk in atopic dermatitis. Cinobufagin, a potent PDE4D inhibitor, suppresses MIF and reduces inflammation by restoring the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway. Genetic knockout validates PDE4D as a key driver and promising therapeutic target for atopic dermatitis ...
