Surfactant‐mediated electro‐dewetting of droplets in oil for liquid‐shape manipulation

Droplet
The capability to manipulate liquid shape at the microscale has enabled numerous microfluidic devices. Due to its simple electric actuation, electrowetting‐on‐dielectric has been widely used in a variety of microfluidic applications that require ...

Multi‐omics and low‐input proteomics profiling reveals dynamic regulation driving pluripotency initiation in early mouse embryos

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

An electrocyte‐inspired moisture‐driven electricity generator for self‐sustained water electrolysis

Droplet
Harvesting electricity from ubiquitous moisture offers the promise of clean power for self‐sustained systems. Despite extensive efforts, achieving high‐power electricity generation remains challenging.

C2α‐carbanion‐protonating glutamate discloses tradeoffs between substrate accommodation and reaction rate in actinobacterial 2‐hydroxyacyl‐CoA lyase

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Enzymes of the 2‐hydroxyacyl‐CoA lyase group catalyze the condensation of formyl‐CoA with aldehydes or ketones. Thus, by structural adaptation of active sites, practically any pharmaceutically and industrially important 2‐hydroxyacid could be biotechnologically synthesized. Combining crystal structure analysis, active site mutations and kinetic assays,

Bubble pinch‐off on biphilic and superhydrophobic surfaces

Droplet
In this work, we experimentally measured the pinch‐off of a gas bubble on a biphilic surface, which consisted of an inner circular superhydrophobic region and an outer hydrophilic region.

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.

Phenomenological contact line friction coefficient

Droplet
An important feature of contact line motion, as an irreversible process, is its dissipative nature, which can dominate the dynamics during the early stages of droplet spreading.

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...

Ethanol evaporation drives ester assembly and particle deposition in droplets of Chinese distilled liquors

Droplet
Chinese distilled liquor, known as Baijiu, typically has a relatively high ethanol content (52 or 53% alcohol by volume, ABV) and is characterized by a powerful, heady scent.
