We present a heart‐on‐a‐chip platform embedded with ultrasoft mechanosensors for real‐time, multi‐scale stress mapping in engineered cardiac tissues. The system enables simultaneous quantification of local cell‐generated stresses and global tissue contractile forces.

Evidence for Drop‐Like Nuclear Deformation in Sheared Endothelial Monolayers
Physiological shear stress smoothens endothelial monolayers by selectively eliminating less‐spread cells with tall, wrinkled nuclei. Nuclear volume and surface area remain constant, consistent with drop‐like deformation governed by geometric constraints.

Leveraging Viscosity to Unlock the Osteogenic Potential of BMP‐2 Mimetic DWIVA
Dynamic interfaces based on supported lipid bilayers demonstrate that the osteogenic potential of the BMP‐2 mimetic DWIVA can be harnessed by modulating substrate viscosity. This work highlights that the viscous properties of the cellular microenvironment play a crucial role in the mechanosensitive regulation of growth factor activity.

Unilateral mastication, a common oral habit, induces cognitive decline in rats by disrupting hippocampal cholesterol metabolism. It triggers astrocyte hyperplasia, enhances cholesterol synthesis, impairs transport/degradation, and reduces 24‐hydroxycholesterol (24‐OHC), ultimately damaging synaptic function.
