Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel biodegradable wound dressing (E‐PCLs) based on polycaprolactone (PCL) and an enzyme complex (RHP‐BCL) is developed using a fiber microfluidic electrospinning technique. The dressing achieves complete degradation within 14 days, eliminates microplastic residues, and promotes scar‐free healing (99% in 21 days).

Evolution of female choice and age-dependent male traits with paternal germ-line mutation [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Several studies question the adaptive value of female preferences for older males. Theory and evidence show that older males carry more deleterious mutations in their sperm than younger males carry. These mutations are not visible to females choosing mates.

HDAC6 and USP9X Control Glutamine Metabolism by Stabilizing GS to Promote Glioblastoma Tumorigenesis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Glioblastoma (GBM) growth relies on glutamine synthetase (GS), which is stabilized by histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and deubiquitinated by ubiquitin‐specific peptidase 9, X‐linked (USP9X). HDAC6 promotes GS deacetylation, while USP9X removes its K48‐linked polyubiquitination, enhancing GS stability.

The Locus Coeruleus‐Periaqueductal Gray GABAergic Projection Regulates Comorbid Pain and Depression
Advanced Science, EarlyView.LC‐GABA neurons exhibit elevated activity to noxious and aversive stimuli in chronic pain, and their activation alleviates pain‐ and depression‐like behaviors. While LC‐GABA neurons target LC‐NA neurons and GABA and Glu neurons in the vlPAG, they modulate the pain responses of LC‐NA neurons but regulate pain‐ and depression‐like behaviors through their

Basic offspring number and robust feedback design for the biological control of vectors by sterile insect release technique [PDF]
arXivSterile Insect Technique (SIT) is a promising control method against insect pests and insect vectors. It consists in releasing males previously sterilized in laboratory, in order to reduce or eliminate a specific wild population. We study in this paper the implementation by feedback control of SIT-based elimination campaign of Aedes mosquitoes.
