Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

Citrate‐Enhanced PCL Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering
This study investigates citrate‐enhanced polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds designed for bone tissue engineering. Utilizing 3D printing technology, four scaffold patterns (triple hexagon, grid, gyroid, zigzag) are evaluated for mechanical properties, cellular proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and gene expression.

Morphological evolution of the mammalian jaw adductor complex [PDF]
The evolution of the mammalian jaw during the transition from non-mammalian synapsids to crown mammals is a key event in vertebrate history and characterised by the gradual reduction of its individual bones into a single element and the concomitant ...

Orthodontic relapse persists as a 120‐year challenge, as traditional retainers fail to remodel tissue, causing lifelong dependence. This study demonstrates a flexible magnetoelectric retainer (FMOR) enabling wireless periodontal remodeling. FMOR cues shift periodontal ligament cell (PDLC) paracrine signaling, promoting M2 macrophages, osteogenic ...

Modulation of Intermuscular Beta Coherence in Different Rhythmic Mandibular Behaviors
IntroductionJaw movement during chewing and speech is facilitated by neural activation patterns for opening and closing movements of the mandible. This study investigated anatomic- and task-dependent differences in intermuscular coherence (IMC) and their
