Long‐Term Hydrophilic, Anti‐Clotting, and Anti‐Fibrotic Dynamic Covalent Silicone‐Based Biomaterials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 24, 25 June 2026.
Dynamic covalent crosslinking of a Schiff‐base silicone elastomer with hydrazide‐functionalized polymers is demonstrated to improve the long‐term hydrophilicity as well as the anti‐fouling and anti‐clotting properties of PDMS implants. The hydrazone‐functionalized material prevents hydrophobic recovery, resists clotting, and significantly reduces ...

ELABELA Targets Mitochondria to Modulate Heart Development

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
The role of peptide ELABELA (ELA) in cardiomyocyte apoptosis and congenital heart disease (CHD) is unclear. ELA deficiency caused cardiomyocyte apoptosis and CHD. A novel ELA‐APJ‐AKT‐BCL2/BAX axis in regulating mitochondrial function and contributing to CHD pathogenesis was established.

Stimuli‐Responsive Hydrogels for Optical Applications: Mechanisms, Architectures, and Translational Challenges

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
The review discusses stimuli‐responsive hydrogels as soft optical materials that translate physical, chemical, and biological cues into refractive‐index, scattering, birefringence, diffraction, and transparency changes. It examines major stimulus classes and photonic architectures for biosensing, waveguiding, adaptive lenses, smart windows, and therapy.

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1311-1333, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Incidental Rectus Abdominis Leiomyoma Discovered During Emergency Cesarean Section: A Rare Case Report From Northern Tanzania

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Uterine fibroids, also referred to as leiomyomas, are benign uterine tumors with a lifetime prevalence of approximately 75% depending on race, age, and a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Extra‐uterine leiomyomas are uncommon, and their occurrence within the rectus abdominis muscle is exceptionally rare.
