Microfluidic Electrochemical Biosensor for the Detection of Platelet Factor 4 Antibody‐Mediated Thrombotic Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic electrochemical biosensor enables sensitive and specific detection of antibodies associated with vaccine‐induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) and heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). The platform uses two antigen targets— platelet factor 4 (PF4) and cross‐linked‐PF4 (c‐PF4)—and microliter volumes of patient sera to ...

Miniature Robotic Swimmer with Precise 2D Motion Control via Acoustic Vortex‐Induced Propulsion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a miniature robotic swimmer achieves precise 2D motion using sound waves with customized 3D‐printed lenses. Localized acoustic vortices drive both translation and rotation of the swimmer without mechanical parts. This contactless approach offers a novel route to controlled micro‐scale movement, with promising applications in biomedical ...

β‐Adrenergic Signaling Promotes Anti‐Tumor Immunity in TP53‐mutant Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
β‐adrenergic stimulation enhances anti‐tumor immunity in TP53‐deficient oral squamous cell carcinoma by inducing tumor‐derived secretion of CXCL10, which attracts and activates cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. The findings demonstrate that β‐adrenergic signaling alters tumor–immune interactions via CXCL10‐mediated paracrine activation, revealing a neuro‐immune ...
