Label‐Free 3D Photoacoustic Imaging of Tumor Organoids for Volumetric Drug Screening
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A label‐free organoid photoacoustic imaging (LFOPI) system is developed for precise volumetric drug screening evaluation. As a proof of concept, LFOPI's performance in chemotherapy and immunotherapy drug screening assays are further evaluated. The LFOPI offers unique non‐invasive, label‐free capabilities for tumor organoids, and contributes to the ...

Structural Variations Associated with Adaptation and Coat Color in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau Cattle
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals the landscape of structural variants in Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau cattle through long‐read sequencing. Discoveries include metabolic and oxygen‐regulation gene variants, along with a 2‐Mb KIT‐containing inversion and translocations responsible for cattle gray coat. These findings highlight the significant role of structural variants in
