Advanced Science, EarlyView.The αvβ3‐mediated SPRC@MPDA‐RGD targets broken endothelial cells and controllably releases SPRC. CSE is then activated to produce endogenous H2S, which inhibits ferritinophagy. In brief, H2S inhibits autophagy by activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, thereby suppressing the ferroptosis process mediated by NCOA4, and ultimately promoting the ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mechanical loading induces a previously unrecognized Sox9+Acan+ transitional mesenchymal cell population in the periodontal ligament that promotes osteoclastogenesis via the FGF2–FGFR2–ERK axis. Targeting this mechanoresponsive stromal population using a localized GelMA@siRNA delivery strategy attenuates pathological osteoclast overactivation and root ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Our study identifies selenium deficiency as a hallmark of MASH pathogenesis. Dietary selenium supplementation enhances hepatic fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and attenuates MASH progression by activating the PPARα pathway via selenoprotein H (SELENOH). This selenium‐SELENOH‐PPARα nexus redefines the functional scope of selenoproteins, moving from redox ...

The Hmong Come to Southern Laos: Local Responses and the Creation of Racialized Boundaries [PDF]
Hmong Studies Journal, 2011 There is a long history of Hmong migrations from the north to south. Most recently, Hmong have begun emerging in the southern-most parts of Laos, including Champasak and Attapeu Provinces, places where they never lived before, and some Hmong have tried ...

Redefining the Health Risk of Battery Materials Through a Biologically Transformed Metal Mixture
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inhaled NCM particles undergo lysosomal degradation, releasing complex ion mixtures that induce systemic impact. The impact is determined by a critical balance between antagonistic Ni‐Co interactions and synergistic Mn effects. To capture these complexities in risk assessment, we develop an IAI model, ensuring a more accurate quantitative risk ...

Active Metamaterials with Tunable Shear Nonreciprocity and Nonlinear Dynamics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Active gear‐based mechanical metamaterials enable simultaneous control of translational and torsional stiffnesses by 30–100×, break shear reciprocity under positive versus negative loads, broadly tune resonant frequencies, and offer programmable dynamic responses.

Health disparities in chronic liver disease
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.
