Life in extreme environments: Hydrothermal vents [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000 Eruption of volcanic rocks at the midocean ridges is the major mechanism by which heat is lost from the interior of the Earth. Approximately one-third of the heat is removed from the spreading centers by convective circulation of seawater (1). The magnitude of this heat loss requires that the entire volume of the oceans circulates through the midocean ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Magnetomechanical neuromodulation using magnetic nanodiscs enables remote activation of neurons. In a hemiparkinsonian mouse model, alternating magnetic fields actuate the nanodiscs to generate torque that opens mechanosensitive ion channels within the subthalamic nucleus, thereby modulating basal ganglia motor circuitry.

Advancing Energy Efficiency in Smart Windows via Dual‐Responsive Electro‐Thermochromism
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A durable and stable quasi‐solid‐state electro‐thermal dual‐responsive photothermal regulation device has been employed in advanced energy‐efficient smart windows. The devised device not only incorporates a thermochromic hydrogel characterized by high ionic conductivity, high optical transmittance, and a low LCST, but also comprises an electrochromic ...

Challenges of using an AUV to find and map hydrothermal vent sites in deep and rugged terrains [PDF]
, 2010 In March 2010, the Autosub6000 AUV embarked on a cruise to discover, locate and map hydrothermal vent sites in an active spreading centre, the Cayman trough in the Caribbean sea. The environment provided the challenge of steep and rugged terrain together

Discovery of new hydrothermal activity and chemosynthetic fauna on the Central Indian Ridge at 18°-20° S. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Indian Ocean hydrothermal vents are believed to represent a novel biogeographic province, and are host to many novel genera and families of animals, potentially indigenous to Indian Ocean hydrothermal systems.

Life in hot springs and hydrothermal vents [PDF]
Origins of life and evolution of the biosphere, 1993 Hot springs and hydrothermal systems occurring within volcanic areas are inhabited by hyperthermophilic microorganisms, some of which grow at temperatures up to 110 degrees C. Hyperthermophiles grow anaerobically or aerobically by diverse metabolic types. Within the high temperature ecosystems, primary production is independent from solar energy.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study developed a dual‐targeting biomimetic nanozyme hybrid system (Cu‐CeO2@ABs‐FTP) and integrated it with HAMA hydrogel to fabricate a microneedle patch (CAF@MN). The patch promotes fibroblast‐mediated wound repair, targets macrophages to induce M2 polarization, and targets myofibroblasts to exert anti‐fibrotic effects, thereby enabling rapid ...
