Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Neutronic Analysis on Potential Accident Tolerant Fuel-Cladding Combination U$_3$Si$_2$-FeCrAl [PDF]
Neutronic performance is investigated for a potential accident tolerant fuel (ATF),which consists of U$_3$Si$_2$ fuel and FeCrAl cladding. In comparison with current UO$_2$-Zr system, FeCrAl has a better oxidation resistance but a larger thermal neutron ...
