Vine‐Inspired Soft Robotics: Materials, Actuations, and Emerging Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Vine‐inspired robots grow from the tip, enabling navigation through confined spaces with minimal disturbance. This Review summarizes material and actuation strategies for vine‐inspired growth, key functions including steering, retraction, attachment, branching, and variable stiffness, and emerging applications spanning medical intervention, confined ...

Preliminary study of the effects of Okadaic Acid in the intestinal tract of mouse

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2014
Introduction Diarrheic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP) toxins that include Okadaic Acid (OA) and its analogues (Dinophysis toxins) are produced by several marine dinoflagellates of the genera Dinophysis and Prorocentrum (Reguera et al., 2012).

A ROS‐Responsive and Mucoadhesive Thermosensitive Hydrogel Encapsulated with Mizoribine for Synergistic Dry Eye Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The ROS‐responsive in situ thermosensitive MZR@SPPP hydrogel system enables dual‐stage drug loading and sustained ocular delivery. Upon administration, it gelates at ocular surface temperature, enhancing ocular adhesion. By scavenging free radicals, restoring NRF2‐mediated antioxidant defense and mitochondrial homeostasis, and suppressing inflammatory ...

Membrane‐Damaging Toxins: Family of RTX Toxins

open access: yes, 2003
The major cellular effect of RTX toxins has been ascribed to their pore‐forming capacity, resulting in plasma membrane lesions and osmotic lysis.

Oxygen‐Driven Structural Reorganization by Trace Water Enabling Fast Li‐Ion Transport in a Pliable Solid Electrolyte

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Trace water is acting as a constructive mediator in 2LiCl–GaF3, markedly increasing ionic conductivity while reorganizing local coordination. Hydration creates localized Li+ solvation environments and partially dissociates ion pairs, enhancing Li‐ion mobility.

A Fluorine‐Free, Low Ion Pair Electrolyte for Transition Metal‐Free and Halogen‐Free Sodium Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Fluorine‐containing electrolytes dominate modern rechargeable batteries, yet the fundamental design principles for fluorine‐free systems remain largely unexplored. We demonstrate that fluorine‐free electrolyte chemistry can simultaneously achieve long cycle life, fast charging, and stable interphase formation in sodium‐ion batteries.

Are toxins from harmful algae a factor involved in the decline of harbour seal populations in Scotland? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Firstly this study builds on the investigation initiated by Hall and Frame (2010), which found that Scottish harbour seals were exposed to domoic acid (DA), a potent natural neurotoxin produced by phytoplankton.

Isolating T‐Cell Potent Lentiviral Vector Subpopulations through Rational Design of Nanofiber Anion‐Exchange Adsorbents

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Generation of CAR‐T cell therapies relies predominantly on lentiviral vectors (LVs). As in vivo CAR‐T trials progress, demand for larger quantities of higher‐potency LV is expected. However, primary capture by anion‐exchange chromatography (AIEX) remains a major manufacturing bottleneck from use of adsorbents not tailored to LVs, leading to ...

Quantitation of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxins in Chilean Mussel using pyrenyldiazomethane as fluorescent labeling reagent

open access: yesBiological Research, 2003
Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) is a gastrointestinal disease caused by lipid soluble polyether toxins produced by dinoflagellates and accumulated in shellfish.

Nacre‐inspired layered composite with excellent mechanical support and osteogenic potential for cervical interbody cage

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The cervical interbody cage needs to take both biomechanical and biological requirements into account. Here, a new‐style degradable, multicomponent, and bioinspired nacre‐like cervical interbody cage composite, which exhibits promising mechanical‐support‐related behavior and osteogenesis‐related potential, is designed and prepared.
