A Biomimetic Starfish‐Inspired Magnetic Soft Robot with Ultrasound Monitoring for Targeted Inflammatory Bowel Disease Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.
This work introduces a starfish‐inspired magnetic soft robot for localized, long‐term inflammatory bowel disease therapy. Featuring biomimetic multi‐arm microspines and magnetic actuation, it navigates the gastrointestinal tract, adheres firmly, and releases drugs on demand, monitored by ultrasound, with validated biosafety and ex vivo therapeutic ...

Targeted Anti‐IL‐1 Immunomodulatory Therapy in Pediatric Onset PPP1R13L‐Related Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 8, Page 1807-1813, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive loss‐of‐function variants in PPP1R13L cause an ultra‐rare cardiocutaneous syndrome characterized by rapidly progressive arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM). PPP1R13L encodes iASPP, which has two potentially overlapping mechanisms driving ACM as both a regulator of NFκB‐mediated inflammation and a binding partner within the ...

Direct Recycling of Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxides: Impact of Shear Milling on Physicochemical and Electrochemical Performance

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
The first step of the direct recycling process of lithium‐ion battery (LIB) cathodes is investigated through shear milling of NMC622 materials. An excessive milling energy could alter particle size and induce crystalline microstrains, leading to electrochemical performance loss.

Morphological Characterization and Complete Mitochondrial Genome of a New Epizoic Hexamerous Brittle Star Gymnolophus sexradia sp. Nov

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study describes a new hexamerous epizoic brittle star species, Gymnolophus sexradia sp. nov., from the South China Sea, which lives on crinoid hosts and exhibits a six‐armed body plan possibly indicating fissiparity. Its vertebral and arm plate structures enhance horizontal flexibility for grasping the host, and phylogenetic analysis based on ...

Cell‐Integrated In Situ Prelithiation Enables Stable and Fast‐Charging Self‐Supporting Al Foil Anodes

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Self‐supporting aluminum (Al) foil anodes offer the advantages of high energy density, simplified structural configuration, and low cost. However, their practical application is severely constrained by challenges such as low initial Coulombic efficiency, pronounced interfacial side reactions, and sluggish lithiation kinetics.
