Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Synergistic Microstructure and Dielectric Engineering of Recyclable Single‐Electrode Triboelectric Nanogenerators for Sustainable Smart Homes

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A recyclable triboelectric nanogenerator integrating a pseudo‐honeycomb microstructure with liquid metal doping achieves 120% higher output (122 mW m−2) and >90% retention over seven cycles, enabling self‐powered smart home functions. The performance of single‐electrode triboelectric nanogenerators (SE‐TENGs) is governed by the effective contact area ...
