Bioinspired Adaptive Artificial Cilia With Tunable Sensitivity and Dynamic Range for Airflow Monitoring in the Central Airway

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A magnetically reconfigurable airflow sensor integrated with an airway stent enables tunable sensitivity and dynamic sensing range. Airflow‐induced cantilever deformation generates resistance changes, while an external magnetic field modulates sensor stiffness, enhancing sensitivity at low airflow velocities and extending the sensing range at higher ...

A Robust Bio‐Supportive Hydrogel Patch for Full‐Thickness Repair of Gastroesophageal Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gastroesophageal defect repair remains a formidable clinical challenge plagued by high leakage and life‐threatening complications. We develop a double‐disc, highly crystalline PVA‐based RBS hydrogel patch featuring suture‐free sealing, robust acid/enzyme resistance and mechanical durability.

HECTD1 Directs HIF‐1α to Facilitate Intestinal Inflammation and Carcinogenesis via Promoting Th17 Differentiation and Glycolysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
HECTD1 emerges as an upstream amplifier of Th17 metabolic programming by promoting K63‐linked ubiquitination of IGF2BP3 and enhancing HIF‐1α translation. HIF‐1α reciprocally drives HECTD1 transcription, establishing a positive regulatory loop that sustains glycolysis and Th17 differentiation.
