Chemical inhomogeneity–induced profuse nanotwinning and phase transformation in AuCu nanowires
Nanosized metals usually exhibit ultrahigh strength but suffer from low homogeneous plasticity. The origin of a strength–ductility trade-off has been well studied for pure metals, but not for random solid solution (RSS) alloys. How RSS alloys accommodate

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Carbon black (CB)-filled rubber materials are extensively used in civil engineering seismic isolation. However, CB-filled rubber materials often experience mechanical property degradation because of exposure to environmental factors. To better understand

The morphologies and surface chemical properties of domestic T800 grade carbon fibers A and imported Toray T800H were characterized by means of scanning electronic microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Sensors for mechanical properties
This paper presents devices to convert a wide range of physical and mechanical properties into a displacement which can subsequently generate an instrumentation signal. The application of physical principles as the basis of a practical transducer is but one fascinating aspect of instrumentation.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.
