Impact of Bt Cotton on the Farmer's Livelihood System in China [PDF]

In order to analyze the impacts of Bt cotton on the farmers' livelihood system, we interviewed 169 farmers and extension personnel in the main cotton production areas in Hebei province in the year 2002 and 2003.

Macrophage Trogocytosis of Tumor Cells Drives the Immunosuppression of Tumor Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Trogocytosis efficiency varies significantly among different tumor cells and is inversely related to their cortical stiffness; this efficiency dictates the extent of immunosuppression via upregulation of CXCL5 and Arg‐1, ultimately driving CD8+T cell exhaustion and tumor escape.

Biological Innovation and Productivity Growth in the Antebellum Cotton Economy [PDF]

The Cliometrics literature on slave efficiency has generally focused on static questions. We take a decidedly more dynamic approach. Drawing on the records of 142 plantations with 509 crops years, we show that the average daily cotton picking rate ...

Controlled Lattice Distortion and Lattice‐Strain‐Engineered CoCuIr Alloy toward Preferential Chlorine Tolerant Direct Seawater Electrolysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A lattice‐strain‐engineered Co0.28Cu0.67Ir0.05 trimetallic alloy nanoparticle electrocatalyst is rationally designed for efficient alkaline seawater electrolysis. Larger Ir atoms in the CoCu lattice modulate the local coordination environment, generating compressive lattice strain and highly active catalytic sites.

Genetic Analysis of Fiber Color Using Segregations of Color Parameters in Cotton

, 2017
Fiber color in cotton is a genetically inherited trait resulting from the presence of pigments intermingled with cellulose. Electronic shade-matching instruments can be used to determine objectively the color of cotton fiber. The objectives of this study

Targeting the CRYAB/β‐Catenin Axis with an MMP‐9‐Responsive Hydrogel Disrupts CTC Clusters to Suppress Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Radiofrequency Ablation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates that sublethal thermal stress after iRFA upregulates the chaperone CRYAB in residual HCC cells, which stabilizes β‐catenin and drives a dual pathological program, including EMT and N2‐TAN polarization, thereby leading to heterotypic CTC cluster formation. The MMP‐9‐responsive hydrogel (XB@Gel) delivers XAV‐939 and BMS‐

Polydopamine‐Wool Textiles for Sustainable Interfacial Solar Vapor Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural wool textile engineered for high solar absorbance and a fast‐wicking structure serves as a highly efficient, single‐layer system for interfacial solar vapor generation (ISVG). This integrated evaporator seamlessly couples rapid water transport with continuous evaporation. Ultimately, this sustainable photothermal design offers a scalable, eco‐

Ultrasound‐Activated Nanoinhibitors Blocking the Chemo‐Immune Checkpoint to Overcome Chemotherapy‐Induced Immune Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A sono‐responsive chemo‐immune checkpoint nanoinhibitor (Sono‐TT8) co‐delivering TPZ chemotherapy and siXkr8 simultaneously kills tumor cells and blocks PS externalization, reversing chemotherapy‐induced immunosuppression and enhancing antitumor immunity. ABSTRACT Breast cancer features an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment following chemotherapy
