Exosome‐mimetic vesicle‐encapsulated multi‐responsive antibacterial hydrogel core‐shell microneedle patch promotes scarless healing of infected wounds

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The core‐shell microneedle patch VP@FNV‐CuO2‐MN was fabricated by encapsulating n‐CuO2 in a moderately crosslinked PVA/CMCS/Borax4 hydrogel shell and VP‐loaded fibroblast membrane nanovesicles (VP@FNV) in a highly crosslinked PVA/CMCS/Borax6 hydrogel core. Upon application to an infected wound, the acidic microenvironment triggers Fenton‐like reactions

Unraveling the interplay between root exudates, microbiota, and rhizosheath formation in pearl millet

Microbiome
Background The rhizosheath, a cohesive soil layer firmly adhering to plant roots, plays a vital role in facilitating water and mineral uptake. In pearl millet, rhizosheath formation is genetically controlled and influenced by root exudates.

Engineering programmable peptide hydrogels for chronic refractory wounds: A mechanism‐driven framework

BMEMat, EarlyView.
To break the self‐perpetuating pathology of chronic wounds, we propose a mechanism‐driven engineering framework for peptide‐based hydrogels. This review elucidates a hierarchical strategy—from molecular design to intelligent, multi‐functional systems—that enables these programmable biomaterials to dynamically intervene in key pathological loops and ...

Integrated rhizosphere bacterial community and root exudate analysis clarify the key bacteria in enhancing Pyrus betulifolia saline-alkali stress tolerance

Horticultural Plant Journal
Root-associated microbiota play a crucial role in the response of plants to environmental stress. Pyrus betulifolia is a wild pear species with strong saline-alkali resistance.

Tannic acid–metal biomaterials for skin repair: Principles, immune microenvironment modulation, and translational perspectives

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Tannic acid–metal materials are emerging as versatile wound biomaterials, but their value depends on more than multifunctionality. This review maps how tannic acid alone, free metal ions, and coordinated TA–metal systems differ in design logic, immune‐microenvironment effects, and translational potential, offering a practical framework for choosing ...

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Presence of Emissary Veins in the Glabellar Region in Metopic Craniosynostosis

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emissary veins connect intra‐ and extracranial venous circulation by bridging the dural venous sinuses to the external veins of the skull. Their variable presence and location may have important implications in perioperative blood loss. Clinical observations and previous studies suggest that emissary veins are more frequently present in the ...
