Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cytoplasmic RNF32 fuels CRC liver metastasis by degrading GSK3β, which stabilizes β‐catenin and activates Wnt/EMT. Moreover, RNF32 rewires the metastatic niche: it depletes CD8+/CD4+ T and NK cells while recruiting SPP1+ macrophages (which boost tumor stemness via CD44), fibroblasts, and immunosuppressive monocytes to aid colonization.

Quasi‐Antipolar Nanoclusters Driven Superior Energy Storage in High‐Entropy Relaxor Ferroelectrics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Quasi‐antipolar nanoclusters are engineered in lead‐free NaNbO3‐based high‐entropy relaxors that weaken polar nanoregion coupling and induce distinct ferroelectric transition under high fields to enable desirable polarization response. This breakthrough system achieves ultrahigh recoverable‐energy‐density (≈18.3 J cm−3), efficiency (≈91.5%), and ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...
