Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Impact of self-efficacy on food waste reduction and its consequences in the solid waste economy using Monte Carlo simulation

Scientific Reports
The share of food waste in waste management costs is important because food waste constitutes a significant portion of municipal solid waste. Although the quantity of food waste depends on the food culture and behavior of citizens, but the impact of ...

Hair Follicle Seedling Cryomicroneedles from Hierarchical Microfluidic Organoid on a Chip

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this paper, a hierarchical microfluidic chip is developed to produce uniform hair follicle organoids (HFOs) in cryomicroneedles. Cryopreservation agents encapsulate HFOs, preserving viability and hair growth potential. The cryomicroneedles enable simple intradermal transplantation with good skin penetration.

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

A Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlas of the Ovine Rumen Microbiome Characterizes Lineage‐Specific Metabolic Shifts Associated with Host Heat Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...

Adipocyte Myoglobin Is a Determinant of Energy Expenditure and a Potential Target to Limit Obesity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Myoglobin, known as a muscle oxygen‐carrying protein, is shown to play a key role in fat cells that burn energy. Loss of myoglobin reduces the body's ability to generate heat and increases obesity risk, while restoring it improves metabolism. The study identifies myoglobin as a regulator of fat burning and a potential target to enhance energy ...

De Novo Designed Minibinders Targeting the GDF15–GFRAL Axis Reverse Cancer Cachexia and Restore Anti‐Tumor Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐derived GDF15 drives cancer cachexia and suppresses antitumor immunity. Here, de novo designed minibinders targeting the GDF15–GFRAL interface achieve picomolar affinity and potent pathway blockade. The minibinders alleviate cachexia, restore CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, enhance anti–PD‐1 responsiveness, and provide survival benefits across tumor ...

Vascularized Liver‐on‐a‐Microsphere Reveals Alanine‐Glucose Metabolism‐Driven Regulation of Liver Function and Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A vascularized liver‐on‐a‐microsphere system is developed to recreate lobule‐like cellular organization and endothelial barrier function within compartmentalized hydrogel particles. The platform enhances hepatic performance and reveals alanine‐glucose cycle activation linked to improved detoxification capacity, offering a high‐throughput microscale ...
