Growth Factor‐Loaded Mesoporous Silica Particles, Incorporated in Electrospun PCL Fibres, Provide Topographical and Chemical Cues for Tendon Tissue Engineering

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Electrospinning enables the hierarchical assembly of nanofiber‐based scaffolds for tissue engineering. However, encapsulated proteins often undergo structural changes. This study used mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as protective carriers, mitigating protein denaturation and supporting controlled release.

Advancing Solar Modulation Ability of Near Infrared Thermochromic Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Smart Window Films Using a Waveplate

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents the use of a waveplate in thermochromic materials for smart windows. The waveplate enables the optical material to transition from a narrow band reflection to broad band ambidextrous reflection upon heating, resulting in a solar transmission modulation of 5.2% which is four times greater than typical thermochromic cholesteric liquid ...

Species identification in fish meal from urban fisheries biomass with DNA metabarcoding analysis

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 562-571, December 2022., 2022
Fish species constructing fish meal (FM) made from urban fisheries biomass, which is fisheries by‐products collected downstream in the seafood supply chain were detected with a DNA metabarcoding method. 81–122 species were detected in the FM, and fish species indicated as Critically Endangered (CR) or Endangered (EN) on the International Union for ...

Poka: A Necro‐Robot Beetle with a Measured Payload Ratio of 6847%

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, Poka, a necro‐robot beetle with the ability to carry more than 68 times its own weight, is introduced, making it also a walking robot with the highest payload ratio measured to date. This paper is concerned with the design, manufacture and validation of ‘Poka', a novel millimetre‐scale necro‐robot aimed at bridging the performance gap between ...

Fully Printed Variable Orifice Flowmeter with Built‐In Temperature Compensation for Application in Mechanical Ventilation

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing, specifically fused deposition modeling, offers an innovative approach to creating 3D‐printed variable orifice flowmeters with integrated temperature compensation. Using carbon‐black TPU, the primary component (a variable orifice) and the secondary element (a diaphragm pressure sensor) are fabricated.

AKT1 Phosphorylates FDX1 to Promote Cuproptosis Resistance in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that copper activates the AKT signaling pathway, which inhibits ferredoxin‐1 (FDX1), a key regulator of cuproptosis. AKT1‐mediated FDX1 phosphorylation not only abrogates FDX1‐induced cuproptosis and aerobic respiration but also promotes glycolysis.
