Self‐Assembly of Organic–Inorganic Copolymers Toward Bio‐Inspired Cementitious Composites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Organic–inorganic copolymerization of calcium silicate hydrate and thioctic acid produces a self‐organized nanocomposite inspired by the disordered collagen–mineral architecture of trabecular bone. The resulting material combines a compressive strength above 300 MPa with intrinsic physical reprocessibility, retaining over 80% of its strength and energy

Sticker Valence Governs Chain Collapse and Liquid‐Liquid Phase Separation in Peptide‐Inspired Associative Polymers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Peptide‐inspired associative polymers with arginine‐like guanidinium stickers and lysine‐like ammonium spacers undergo chain collapse and liquid‐liquid phase separation induced by reversible sticker associations. Sticker valence and tunable association strength jointly control the phase behavior, chain conformation, and interfacial cohesion of these ...

A Multidimensional Engineering Strategy Reprograms Microglia via Targeted and Sustained‐Release Extracellular Vesicles for Spinal Cord Injury Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional EV‐based nanoplatform (Ang‐TEVs@Gel) was engineered via preconditioning, surface targeting, and ROS‐responsive hydrogel encapsulation to reprogram microglia. This system restored autophagy via miR‐664a‐3p/PIK3CA axis, cleared myelin debris, resolved neuroinflammation, and promoted axon remyelination, ultimately achieving robust motor ...

Tailored Covalent Organic Frameworks Enable the Encapsulation of Living Cells to Produce Rare Ginsenoside

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reports the in situ fabrication of Escherichia coli@covalent organic frameworks (E. coli@COFs) in phosphate‐buffered saline. The COFs form an exoskeleton on E. coli, protecting intracellular β‐glucosidase (Ssbgl) while enhancing mass transfer.

Responsive Membrane Antenna Enables Adaptive Biohybrid Interface for Photosynthesis Promotion, Stress Reporting and Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An environmentally responsive antenna assembled onto the algal cell membrane creates a biohybrid with a responsive interface that promotes photosynthesis under normal conditions and shifts to H2O2‐triggered stress reporting and modulation upon stress onset, boosting environmental sensing and adaptive response.

Architecting Phase‐Selective Interlayers for Stable SiOx Lithium Storage via Dual‐Function Design

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Silicon anodes offer high capacity but suffer severe volume expansion. Silicon monoxide (SiO) buffers expansion, yet uncontrolled lithiation irreversibly consumes lithium as Li2O and oxygen‐rich silicates. Here, we design a layered SiOx featuring a phase‐selective conductive interfacial interlayer (PSCII), i.e., a Li4SiO4‐rich, ion‐accessible ...

Operando Visualization of Cathode Water Management in Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzers Using Synchrotron X‐Ray Radiography

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The cathode of proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers remains a poorly understood region despite its importance for hydrogen purity and operational safety. Operando synchrotron X‐ray radiography directly visualizes liquid water behavior and uncovers a transition from continuous to pulsating transport, providing new insight into multiphase ...
