VEGF‐C and its receptor VEGFR‐3 are critical for lymphangiogenesis. Cryo‐EM structures of the VEGFR‐3/VEGF‐C ectodomain complex reveal a canonical 2:2 ligand–receptor hetero‐tetramer that further assembles into higher‐order clusters beyond simple receptor dimerization.

Identification of a system with dry friction
A new elasto-plastic state variable friction model is proposed which models both stiction and presliding displacement. However, the proposed Leuven model by Swevers et al. is more complex than the standard parameterization of the LuGre model due to the use of an hybrid hysteresis model and therefore more difficult to be used for control design and ...

Thickness‐Gradient Liquid Metal Connectors for Seamless Electrophysiological Sensors
Thickness‐gradient liquid metal interfaces with elastomeric substrates enable seamless integration between ultrathin skin‐conformal electrodes and external interconnects. The mechanically compliant connector reduces interfacial mismatch and supports stable ECG/EMG monitoring under bending and motion.

Liquid‐Responsive Shape‐Memory Nanofiber‐Reinforced Scaffolds for Cartilage Repair
A liquid‐responsive shape‐memory, nanofiber‐reinforced QCG scaffold combines conformal defect filling, an aligned architecture that is structurally permissive for endogenous cell infiltration, and sustained KGN release. This integrated design enhances BMSC viability, migratory activity, and chondrogenic differentiation and promotes hyaline cartilage ...

Stick and non-stick periodic motions in periodically forced oscillators with dry friction.
In this paper, the dynamics mechanism of stick and non-stick motion for a dry-friction oscillator is discussed. From the theory of Luo in 2004, the conditions for stick and non-stick motions are achieved.

Bioactive phenylboronic acid–chitosan nanoparticles enable responsive silymarin delivery for post‐hepatectomy liver protection. The nanoplatform integrates antioxidant and antibacterial functions, improves hepatic recovery, and is associated with coordinated shifts in gut microbiota, metabolites, cytokines, and hepatic proteomic pathways, suggesting a ...

Covert Optical Fingerprints Within Overt Structural Colors via Cascaded Cavity Resonances
Cascaded photonic–plasmonic cavities combine vivid structural colors with hidden stochastic optical fingerprints in a single monolithic platform. Layered cavities control the overt appearance, while disordered nanogap resonances generate covert scattering with limited mutual influence.

We present a heat‐accelerated in situ crosslinking strategy to create an alginate gel foam for lithium‐ion battery fire suppression. At ambient temperature, the formulation maintains low viscosity for easy foam generation. After exposure to fire, δ‐gluconolactone hydrolysis accelerates, enabling rapid Ca2+ release from CaCO3 and rapid ionic ...

Real‐Time Monitoring of Mass and Mechanical Properties in Single Cells and Multicellular Spheroids
This study introduces photothermally actuated microcantilevers combined with optical microscopy to simultaneously measure morphology, mass, and mechanical properties of cellular systems in real‐time. The findings link cytoplasm‐dominated mechanical energy dissipation to the Q‐factor as a novel biophysical parameter.

A deep‐learning‐designed binder is fused to a combinatorial degron to create a binder‐degron chimera (bdC) that recruits the CUL2‐RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Encapsulation in a prostate‐cancer‐targeted, CD47‐camouflaged nanocarrier enables tumor‐specific in situ bdC expression, triggering GPX4 degradation and ferroptosis, thereby establishing a ...
