Mapping of Physiological Signals From Wireless Battery‐Free Implants With Plane‐Wave Ultrasound Imaging

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Combined approach of electromagnetic (Power) and ultrasound (data harvesting) waves is proposed to address the miniaturized ultrasonic implants. Electromagnetic waves trigger the piezoelectric element to generate the acoustic pulse which is modulated by the variations in the sensor's impedance.

A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...

Stochastic Nanoscale Biophysical Cues as a Basis for the Induction of Glioblastoma‐Like Transcriptional Programs in Astrocytes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Stochastic nanoscale physical cues induce glioblastoma (GBM)‐associated transcriptional traits in naïve astrocytes leading to spontaneous formation of spheroids. Cells within spheroids express activated‐MMP2 and a differential gene expression pattern involving P53 and NOTCH3, providing evidence for a role for changes in brain topography, as observed in

Capture and Culture of Circulating Tumor Cells Using a Biodegradable 3D Scaffold for Patient‐Derived Xenograft Construction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A self‐supporting, biocompatible, and biodegradable 3D cellulose scaffold has been developed for efficient isolation and in situ expansion of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from patient blood. Subsequently, the 3D cellulose scaffold with cultured CTCs is directly implanted into immunodeficient mice for constructing patient CTC‐derived xenograft (CDX ...

VE‐Cadherin–Actin Regulation Promotes Mechanotransduction and Monolayer Maturation Involving a Tension‐Sensitive Intermediate State

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates how endothelial monolayers balance cohesion and plasticity during mechanical stimulation. In HUVECs, shear stress induces a tension‐sensitive intermediate state in which junctional VE‐cadherin and actomyosin relaxation levels coordinate actin/integrin remodeling. This rapid, reversible state strengthens cell junctions, preserves
