An Assisting Contact Electrification Strategy for Achieving Self‐Recoverable Mechanoluminescence
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Self‐recoverable mechanoluminescence (ML) is a unique property of materials that can stably emit light under repeated stress, enabling new applications in smart sensing, displays, and wearable devices. However, self‐recoverable ML is very rare and only observed in a few active phosphors excited by piezoelectricity or contact electrification ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Schematic diagram showing compressive stress triggers glycolytic reprogramming and lactate accumulation in macrophages. Lactate mediates TRAF6 lactylation at K171/K180 dual sites, which enhances its K63‐linked ubiquitination to activate the NF‑κB pathway and promote M1 polarization. This cascade drives orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone
