Potent Liver‐Tropic mRNA Lipid Nanoparticles: ApoE‐Mediated Delivery Through a Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor Independent Uptake Mechanism

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Helper and ionizable lipids play a crucial role in determining ApoE binding and subsequent liver tropism and LDLR‐mediated uptake. Ionizable lipids primarily govern the LDLR‐independent uptake pathway. This complementary interplay between lipid components ultimately governs LNP delivery performance and therapeutic efficacy in the liver.

Leopard density and determinants of space use in a farming landscape in South Africa

Scientific Reports
Protected areas are traditionally the foundation of conservation strategy, but land not formally protected is of particular importance for the conservation of large carnivores because of their typically wide-ranging nature.

Memory and mutualism in species sustainability: a time-fractional Lotka-Volterra model with harvesting

, 2020
We first present a predator-prey model for two species and then extend the model to three species where the two predator species engage in mutualistic predation. Constant effort harvesting and the impact of by-catch issue are also incorporated. Necessary

Preparation of Model Surfaces to Mimic Porous Cellulose Structures

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study presents 2D ultrathin nanocellulose model surfaces that mimic porous cellulose materials. The surfaces are prepared via a sacrificial templating approach, by spin coating nanocellulose and polystyrene nanoparticles suspension on a substrate, followed by nanoparticle removal.

Phase transitions in dependence of apex predator decaying ratio in a cyclic dominant system

, 2018
Cyclic dominant systems, like rock-paper-scissors game, are frequently used to explain biodiversity in nature, where mobility, reproduction and intransitive competition are on stage to provide the coexistence of competitors. A significantly new situation

Polypeptide Nanotoroids Formed on Substrate via Solvent Evaporation‐Induced Self‐Assembly

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Polypeptide nanotoroids are formed on substrates via a solvent evaporation‐induced self‐assembly process, which is driven by the increased interfacial energy of the initially formed polypeptide nanorods upon their exposure to air during the solvent evaporation.

How territoriality and sociality influence the habitat selection and movements of a large carnivore

Ecology and Evolution
While territoriality is one of the key mechanisms influencing carnivore space use, most studies quantify resource selection and movement in the absence of conspecific influence or territorial structure.

An Injection‐Molded Modified Silicone Rubber for Cancer‐on‐Chip Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This study describes the characterization and application of an injection‐molded functionalized PDMS fluidic insert for the commercially available Micronit system. Modified PDMS can accommodate cell culture and is able to covalently bind proteins for long‐lasting coatings under flow‐conditions.

Daily consumption and functional response of Stethorus gilvifrons (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) and Orius albidipennis (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) to Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae)

Persian Journal of Acarology, 2018
The two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, is one of the most economically important pests on a wide range of crops around the world. Consumption rate and functional responses of all larval stages, male and female of Stethorus gilvifrons ...

Resistive Heating for Inducing Localized Crystal Growth in Organic Thin Film Devices

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Rubrene thin films are promising for organic optoelectronics due to high hole mobility. However, uncontrolled crystallization and grain boundaries from standard thermal processing hinder lateral device scalability. This work presents femtosecond‐laser micromachining and patterned resistive heating to induce localized, deterministic crystallization ...
