Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

Nonplanar Bouligand Architectures for Enhanced Mechanical Performance in Cementitious Composites
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by the impact region of the Mantis shrimp dactyl club, nonplanar additive manufacturing translates sinusoidal Bouligand architectures into cementitious composites. Printing‐induced anisotropy and architected interfaces promote distributed damage and arrest crack propagation, enhancing strength and energy absorption.
