Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Blue‐hazard‐free single‐emissive‐layer white organic LEDs based on an anti‐quenching narrowband blue emitter

FlexMat, EarlyView.
A blue‐hazard‐free single‐emissive‐layer white OLED is realized using an anti‐quenching multiple‐resonance TADF emitter, BNCT. By integrating a sterically protected MR core with efficient energy transfer capability, BNCT enables warm‐white emission with high efficiency, negligible hazardous blue photons, and a simplified device architecture for next ...
