Optical Diversity and Nanostructural Organization in the Colored Scales of Sternotomis
Vivid colors in Sternotomis beetles originate from nanoscale photonic architectures embedded within individual scales. Here, we provide a comparative optical and structural analysis of 57 scale types that reveal how ordered, quasi‐ordered, and disordered 3D networks tune color, saturation, and angular response.

Radiative Cooling by Green(er) Solvents‐Upcycled Polyvinyl Chloride From Drug Blisters Waste
This study explores upcycling poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) from used pharmaceutical blisters into sustainable radiative cooling materials. Using solvent separation and membrane fabrication, PVC was converted into white membranes paired with aluminum foil.

Controlling Ultrafast Photonic‐Plasmonic Coupling in a Hybrid Platform for Biosensing Applications
A metal–dielectric hybrid composed of gold nanocaps on opal exhibits a broad near‐infrared plasmonic resonance interacting with the photonic bandgap under ultrafast transient conditions. This coupling can be controlled by varying the excitation wavelength and is responsive to bacterial deposition, opening new opportunities for ultrafast biosensing ...

A Novel Function of Nonadecanoic Acid in Regulating Glucose Homeostasis
This study identifies the odd‐chain fatty acid C19:0 as an endogenous ligand of GPR120 that promotes glucose homeostasis via Gαq signaling. In obesity, elevated palmitic acid suppresses endogenous C19:0 production through a miRNA–PPARα–HACL1 pathway, offering a promising direction for understanding the role of OCFAs in human health.
