MOF‐Derived Cu‐TiO2/Alginate Micromotors for Buoyancy‐Regulated 3D Motion
Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this work, cyanobacteria‐inspired sodium alginate (SA)/Cu‐TiO2/Fe3O4 hydrogel micromotors generate and encapsulate O2 microvesicles upon light irradiation, enabling buoyancy‐mediated Z‐axis upward migration and surface enrichment at the light‐exposed water‐air surface.

Escherichia coli swimming is robust against variations in flagellar number
eLife, 2014 Bacterial chemotaxis is a paradigm for how environmental signals modulate cellular behavior. Although the network underlying this process has been studied extensively, we do not yet have an end-to-end understanding of chemotaxis.

mSphere, 2020 Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is a major cause of foodborne gastrointestinal illness. The adhesion of EHEC to host tissues is the first step enabling bacterial colonization. Adhesins such as fimbriae and flagella mediate this process.

Micro/Nanoscale Acoustic Manipulation: From Particle Control to Autonomous Microswimmers
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This conceptual framework illustrates acoustic technology as a multifunctional platform enabling passive particle manipulation across scales and autonomous propulsion of microswimmers. ABSTRACT Acoustic manipulation and propulsion technologies have emerged as powerful platforms for micro/nanoscale control, enabled by their non‐contact operation, label ...

Flagellar assembly in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii regulated by intraflagellar transport protein IFT81
工程科学学报, 2015 A Chlamydomonas reinhardtii immobile mutant named ift81 was screened by insertional mutagenesis. The mutant was bald or with two short flagella. Gene sequencing confirmed that fifty-two base pairs in the fifth extron of IFT81 gene were replaced by the ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A bidirectional calcium‑redistributing nanomodulator rewires intra‑extracellular calcium homeostasis to remodel tumor mechanical microenvironments. It softens tumor stroma to facilitate deep tissue penetration while stiffening tumor cells, evoking amplified immunogenic cell death and robust CTL infiltration, which achieves potent deep photothermal ...

Mechanochemical Coupling in Flagella [PDF]
The Journal of General Physiology, 1968 The relation between oxygen consumption and motility of Ciona spermatozoa has been measured by using pH stats to measure the acid production of spermatozoa swimming in dilute suspensions where their motility can be analyzed accurately, and calibrating the acid production by measuring it simultaneously with measurements of oxygen consumption, using more
