Foldable Soft Leg‐Assisted Wheel Robot
Recently, soft robots garner attention for designing the robotic legs of mobile robots due to their characteristic lightness, tunability, and simple control. Here, a novel soft foldable leg capable of high stiffness and deformability is identified as an assistant for enhancing the locomotion capabilities of a wheel mobile robot.

Mechanical Stress Triggers Premature Senescence in Cardiac Fibroblasts
Cellular senescence contributes to disease burden in cardiovascular disease (CVD) and aging, highlighting the need to understand its induction. In primary cardiac fibroblasts, reduced strain and increased frequency, mimicking CVD, elicit a distinct senescent phenotype compared to oxidative stress.

MUC15 Ectodomain Architecture Regulates Integrin Clustering to Control Cancer Metastasis
This study uncovers a size‐dependent adhesion paradigm, demonstrating that the glycocalyx protein MUC15 suppresses pancreatic cancer progression by attenuating integrin activation, focal adhesion assembly, and YAP mechanotransduction. Integrating computational modeling and experimental validation, the work reveals a mechanical mechanism by which MUC15 ...
