The LINC complex ensures accurate centrosome positioning during prophase

Life Science Alliance
Centrosome positioning in prophase is essential for efficient spindle assembly. Here, we show that centrosome positioning requires LINC complex–mediated loading of dynein on the nuclear envelope.

Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of Hafnium Nanostructures Fabricated by Physical Vapor Deposition Through a Colloidal Mask

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
We generate hafnium nanostructures by first depositing polystyrene particles of varying diameter followed by physical vapour deposition of hafnium thin films. The resultant structure shows a kill‐on‐contact effect against both Gram‐negative Escherichia coli and Gram‐positive Staphylococcus aureus.

Influence of the Substrate Temperature on the Growth Mechanism of Allylamine Plasma Polymer Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The influence of the substrate temperature on the growth mechanism of allylamine plasma polymers is investigated by correlating the plasma chemistry and the physico‐chemical properties of the coatings. New insights about the mechanistic formation of functionalized plasma polymers at a molecular level are provided, paving the way toward a better ...

Bioelectrical Interfaces Beyond Excitable Cells: Cancer, Aging, and Gene Expression Modulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The investigation of biological conductivity has evolved from its classical foundation based on ionic fluxes underpinning cardiac and neuronal excitability to a multifaceted regulator of cellular physiology. Traditional approaches for probing electrical events in living matter focused largely on action potentials recording.

Electrochemically Engineered PEDOT:PSS/MXene Composite Electrode for the Label‐Free Procalcitonin Detection

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Procalcitonin is a key biomarker for bacterial infections, but conventional detection methods are often time‐consuming. Here, we present an electrochemical sensor based on highly conductive Ti3C2Tx MXene combined with PEDOT:PSS, enabling direct antibody immobilization, while a bovine serum albumin coating provides antifouling protection.

Enhanced Self‐Phase Modulation in Silicon Nitride Waveguides Integrated With 2D MoS2 Films

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐chip integration of 2D materials provides a promising route toward next‐generation integrated optical devices with performance beyond existing limits. Here, significantly enhanced spectral broadening induced by self‐phase modulation (SPM) is experimentally demonstrated in silicon nitride (Si3N4) waveguides integrated with 2D monolayer ...

Magnetic Textiles: A Review of Materials, Fabrication, Properties, and Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Magnetic textiles (M‐textiles) are emerging as a programmable materials platform that merges magnetic matter with hierarchical textile structures. This article consolidates magnetic material classes, textile architectures, and fabrication and magnetization strategies, revealing structure–property–function relationships that govern magneto‐mechanical ...

Insights Into Degradation Pathways of Perovskite Thin Films under Outdoor and Indoor Conditions: A Comparative Analysis

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This study compares indoor low‐light and outdoor high‐light degradation in perovskite thin films. Under ∼1000 lux [N2], films remain stable; in oxygen, the same low light triggers strain, surface oxidation, and shorter lifetimes. Whereas high light accelerates decomposition to PbI2 and metallic oxides.

Mechanisms of nuclear envelope expansion

Current Opinion in Cell Biology
In actively dividing eukaryotic cells, the nuclear envelope membrane (NEM) expands during the cell cycle to accommodate increases in nuclear volume and formation of two nuclei as a cell passes through mitosis to form daughter cells. NEM expansion is driven by glycerophospholipid (GPL) synthesis that is regulated by the lipin family of phosphatidic acid
