Elastic moduli for fractured rock mass

open access: yes, 2013
The presence of joint discontinuities has long been recognized as an important factor influencing the mechanical behavior of rock masses. This paper proposes a stress-strain model for an assemblage of intact rock blocks separated by joint planes.

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

Expanding Genetic Code to Generate Human Brain Organoids with Both Vasculature and Microglia‐Like Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using genetic code expansion, we engineered vascularized human cerebral organoids (vhCOs) with microglia‐like cells and blood‐brain barrier features. vhCOs recapitulate neurovascular interactions, regional identities, and neuronal subtypes resembling the fetal brain.

A General High‐Throughput Mucus Microrheology Platform for Quantitative and Scalable Mucus Phenotyping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput Differential Dynamic Microscopy measures frequency‐resolved mechanical fingerprints from 3 to 10 μL$\umu{\rm L}$ mucus samples using only a few minutes of operator attention per sample. This automated analysis enables scalable mucus phenotyping for translational research by distinguishing mechanical heterogeneity among donors, disease ...

Application of CMRR classification system to determine rock mass design parameters in underground coal mines

open access: yes, 2016
The Coal Mine Roof Rating (CMRR) classification system has been applied in a number of coal mines worldwide including Australia. This system is very useful for mine planners as it provides reliable and repeatable information about the roof properties ...

Smart Bioinks for 4D Bioprinting: Requirements, Design, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Smart bioinks empower 4D‐bioprinted constructs to dynamically adapt and remodel in response to stimuli, effectively biomimicking native tissues. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) play a guiding role in their rational design by optimizing relevant properties.

Smartphone‐Guided Visible Light Modulation of RSNOs for Antimicrobial Activity via Controlled Nitric Oxide Release

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

Can the rock mass integrity index be greater than 1? An investigation of the reason and evaluation application

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
The rock mass integrity index (Kv) is a widely used parameter for characterizing rock mass integrity. Kv is defined as the square of the ratio of the P-wave velocity of a rock mass to that of intact rock. Usually, due to the presence of structural planes

High‐Density Type I Collagen Promotes IFN‐γ+ CD8+ T Cell Exhaustion via SAT1‐ASS1‐Mediated Glutamine Accumulation and Ferroptosis in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐density type I collagen promotes glutamine (Gln) accumulation–related ferroptosis of TNBC cells via the spermidine/spermine N1‐acetyltransferase 1 (SAT1)‐ argininosuccinate synthase (ASS1) signaling pathway, thus depriving immune cells of Gln supply and inducing IFN‐γ+ CD8+ T cell exhaustion in the TME.
