Antinomic natural self-protection mechanism in long-lasting woods: a case study with three tropical species from French Guiana [PDF]
, 2009 We demonstrate in this work through 3 examples that Amazonian trees may specialize longlasting woods by means of at least to different approaches. Wallaba impregnates its wood with large amounts of weakly antifungal compounds acting in synergy, while ...

Magnetically Guided Mechanoactive Mineralization Scaffolds for Enhanced Bone Regeneration
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D‐printed ‘rebar‐concrete’ inspired scaffold (PGS‐P@MGel) synergizes spontaneous biomineralization with magneto‐mechanical stimulation through PDA@Fe3O4‐embedded hydrogel. This dual biointerface activates Piezo1/β‐catenin/YAP mechanotransduction axis, enhancing BMSCs osteogenesis and angiogenesis simultaneously.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A quasi‐2D, light‐absorbing platelet embedded in a thermotropic nematic liquid crystal is activated with light irradiation. Depending on the light intensity, the platelet induces a localized nematic‐isotropic phase transition that triggers the motion. Using different confinements, the platelet can glide in a 2D regime or tilt and glide in a 3D regime ...
