Preoperative Intestinal Preconditioning to Prevent Postoperative Vasoplegia After Tricuspid Valve Surgery

Annals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports
Background: Right ventricular dysfunction may lead to intestinal bacterial translocation secondary to portal venous hypertension, thereby contributing to systemic inflammatory response syndrome and vasoplegia after tricuspid valve surgery.

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Spiral valve intestinal barrier functions of juvenile Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii) were changed by low or high-lipid diet

Aquaculture Reports
The intestine serves as the primary defense mechanism safeguarding fish body against pathogen infiltration. Unlike cyprinid and salmonid fish, sturgeon features a distinctive special spiral valve structure within their intestines. Several studies propose

Stabilization of Strongly Reduced Fe(I) Single Atom Species Coordinated in a 2D Self‐Assembled Metal–Organic Network

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A graphene‐supported 2D metal–organic network stabilizes highly reactive Fe(I)‐N4 single sites through Co‐induced charge redistribution. Combined experiments and theory reveal Fe(I) formation, oxygen‐driven oxidation, and O2 activation mechanisms, offering a strategy to access low‐valent iron centers relevant to catalytic and biological processes ...
