Progressive stiffening of the hepatic extracellular matrix and free fatty acid overload activate the mechanosensor Piezo1 in steatotic hepatocytes, inducing calcium influx and nuclear translocation of Yes‐associated protein. YAP‐dependent nuclear signaling further drives inflammatory and fibrotic gene programs, lipid metabolic reprogramming, and ...

Influence of Football on Physiological Cardiac Indexes in Professional and Young Athletes
Background: After long-term intensive training, considerable morphological and functional heart changes occur in professional athletes. Such changes arise progressively and regress upon interruption of the physical activity.

Intelligent Soft Opto‐Magnetic Robot for Minimally Invasive Interventional Therapy
An intelligent soft opto‐magnetic (iSOM) robot is developed that integrates remote magnetic actuation, skin‐mimic tactile perception, and photothermal ablation in a near‐millimeter‐scale design. It enables precise intraluminal navigation and localized ablation while providing real‐time optical feedback to support safe and accurate minimally invasive ...

A novel closed-chest porcine model of chronic ischemic heart failure suitable for experimental research in cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Cardiac pathologies are among the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in industrialized countries, with myocardial infarction (MI) representing one of the major conditions leading to heart failure (HF).

Halide‐Exchange Arrest Enables Reabsorption‐Free CsPbCl3/CsPbI3 Perovskite Core/Shell Nanocrystals
Achieving large Stokes shifts in perovskite nanocrystals is challenging due to halide mobility that disrupts stable core–shell structures. Using CdCl2 passivation, this work stabilizes CsPbCl3/CsPbI3 heterostructures, yielding a ≈1.2 eV Stokes shift, high quantum yield, and fast exciton transfer, enabling reabsorption‐free emitters for advanced ...

Distribution and characterisation of Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor expressing cells in the mouse brain. [PDF]
© 2015 The Authors.Objective: Although Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a key regulator of energy metabolism and food intake, the precise location of GLP-1 receptors and the physiological relevance of certain populations is debatable.

Overcoming PEG Antigenicity: Statistical PEG Isomers Reduce Antibody Binding
Conventional poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is commonly applied in biomedicine, but is now known to induce antibody formation. Here, it is shown that the development of “randomized PEG” (rPEG) featuring glycidyl methyl ether (GME) comonomers decreased antibody binding.

Ventricular androgenic-anabolic steroid-related remodeling: an immunohistochemical study [PDF]
Background: Several fatal cases of bodybuilders, following a myocardial infarction after long exposure to androgenicanabolic steroids (AAS), are reported. In recent years, evidence has emerged of cases of heart failure related to AAS consumption, with no
