Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

Advanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Comprehensive analysis of the circular RNA expression profile and circRNA–miRNA–mRNA network in the goat skin with divergent wool curvature

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView., 2023
In our study, we conducted circRNA expression profiling of Zhongwei goat skin exhibiting divergent curvature wool phenotypes at two developmental stages using the RNA‐seq. Functional verification assay demonstrated that circRNA8782 regulated fibroblast proliferation.

Genetics‐Based Targeting Strategies for Precise Neuromodulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this Review, the fundamental principles and implementation protocols of genetics‐based precision neuromodulation are first introduced. Then, wireless and low‐invasive strategies based on nano‐transducing materials are highlighted, along with a dissection and analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of representative studies.

The SlDOF9‐SlSWEET17 Module: a Switch for Controlling Sugar Distribution Between Nematode Induced Galls and Roots in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Root‐knot nematode (RKN) disease seriously affects the yield and quality of vegetable crops. SlDOF9‐SlSWEET17 model helps plants resist RKN infection during early stage by switching off the sugar transport capacity of other SlSWEET proteins that are hijacked by RKNs.
