Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Mechanical Forces Guide Axon Growth through the Nigrostriatal Pathway in an Organotypic Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nano‐pulling is a magnetic nanoparticle‐based technology for guiding and promoting the axon growth of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived dopaminergic neurospheres in vitro or neural progenitors transplanted in the brain tissue. Fine control of axon guidance is essential for reconstructing neural networks and restoring functional connectivity in the ...

2D Conductive MOFs Intercalated in MXene Interlayer for Fast and Trace Detection of Triethylamine at Room Temperature

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents alternating MXene@Cu‐HHTP (HHTP = 2,3,6,7,10,11‐hexahydroxytriphenylene) heterostructures with a sandwich‐like architecture, combining 2D conductive metal–organic frameworks (2D‐cMOFs) and Ti3C2TX MXene to enhance triethylamine (TEA) sensing. The composite achieves rapid response (4 s at 50 ppm), ultralow detection limit (1 ppm), 21‐
