Matrix stiffness directs mesenchymal stem cell lineage commitment through PIEZO1‐dependent activation of the SP1/STC2 pathway. Stiff matrices favor osteogenesis and suppress adipogenesis, whereas the loss of PIEZO1 function impairs early bone formation. STC2 retains lineage‐regulatory activity even when PIEZO1 is inactive.

Constrained Forest Methane Sink by Thermal Adaptation of Soil Methanotrophs
Climate warming can stimulate methanotroph‐mediated CH4 oxidation in forest soils, thereby mitigating the increase in atmospheric CH4 concentrations. By integrating evidence from a macro‐climatic thermal gradient and a 70‐day incubation experiment, this study demonstrates that microbial methanotrophs can adapt to long‐term temperature changes at the ...

A thermochemically engineered core–shell Si architecture is developed through the controlled evolution of a SWCNT‐coated Mg2Si precursor. The process simultaneously generates a nanoporous Si shell for strain accommodation and Li+ transport, a chemically anchored SiC interfacial layer for robust mechanical and electrical coupling, and a Mg‐containing Si

Atomistic Kinetics of Dislocation‐Mediated Grain Growth in Monolayer MoS2
Atomic‐resolution in‐situ heating microscopy directly visualizes dislocation‐mediated grain boundary migration and grain growth in monolayer MoS2. Mobile grain boundaries migrate through collective motion of Mo 5|7 dislocations, whereas S 5|7 defects remain largely immobile.

Beyond Probiotics: Postbiotics for Healthy Aquaculture
This critical review assesses limitations of probiotics and proposes postbiotics, preparations of inanimate microorganisms and their metabolites, as a more stable, controlled, and biosafe formulation. Postbiotics offer significant advantages during industrial aquafeed production and storage. However, their practical implementation is currently hindered
