The E3 Ubiquitin Ligase RLIM Safeguards Oligodendrocyte Development and Myelination by Targeting SLC7A11 for Polyubiquitination to Regulate Ferroptotic Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RLIM‐mediated SLC7A11 polyubiquitination is required for SPTBN2‐mediated trafficking and membrane localization of SLC7A11, which enables oligodendrocyte precursor cells to be resistant to ferroptosis and safeguards oligodendrocyte lineage progression and thus myelination.

Paternal Sperm Gnas‐ICR Epigenetic Programming Contributes to PPP‐Like Phenotypes in Female Offspring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A paternal glucocorticoid–sperm Gnas‐ICR axis is linked to ovarian endocrine programming in female offspring. Paternal preconception caffeine exposure elevates corticosterone, promotes sperm Gnas‐ICR hypermethylation, and is associated with ovarian Gnas upregulation, cAMP/PKA/CREB–StAR activation, enhanced estradiol synthesis, and PPP‐like phenotypes ...

Frequent Sweetened Beverage Consumption Is Associated With Accelerated Biological Aging: Evidence From a Population‐Based Study and Gut Microbiota Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Frequent sweetened beverage consumption is associated with accelerated biological aging in a large Chinese population. Five gut microbial genera are consistently enriched in both frequent sweetened beverage consumers and individuals with accelerated aging and show significant mediating effects, suggesting a potential microbiota‐related pathway linking ...

Multiscale Coupling From Mastication to Retronasal Aroma Perception: The PG‐DTCFN Model and Multiphysics Simulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using grilled lamb skewers as a model system, this work builds a multiscale coupling framework from oral processing to retronasal aroma perception, reveals dual‐kinetic release patterns and Electroencephalogram‐characterized central encoding features, and proposes an interpretable physics‐guided deep learning model validated by multiphysics simulation,

Targeted Multifunctional Fluorine‐Rich Copolymer Coating Design for Ambient‐Stable Prelithiated SiOC Anodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐rich acrylate copolymer, poly (tridecafluorooctyl methacrylate‐co‐methyl methacrylate) (PFMMA), is introduced as a multifunctional protective coating to stabilize the prelithiated SiOC electrodes in humid conditions and preserve unimpeded interfacial ion/charge transport during redox reactions.

Absorption of Broadband Low‐Frequency Sound Beyond the Thermodynamics Limit: An Acoustic Resonator With Magnetic Bearing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic‐bearing acoustic resonator that overcomes the thermodynamics limit of sound absorption. By introducing tunable negative stiffness, it achieves broadband low‐frequency absorption within a compact cavity, far exceeding the performance achievable by classic mass‐tuned designs.
