Advanced Science, EarlyView.Urinary Fusobacterium nucleatum–derived outer membrane vesicles are shown to promote bladder cancer lymphatic metastasis. The vesicle protein FomA activates TLR2/NF‐κB signaling in tumor cells, induces IL‐6 secretion, and drives M2b macrophage polarization and VEGF‐C–dependent lymphangiogenesis, revealing a microbiota‐driven mechanism linking tumor ...

The McMillan Theorem for Colored Branching Processes and Dimensions of Random Fractals
Entropy, 2014 For the simplest colored branching process, we prove an analog to the McMillan theorem and calculate the Hausdorff dimensions of random fractals defined in terms of the limit behavior of empirical measures generated by finite genetic lines.

Performance Enhancement in Hafnium Oxide Through Homogeneous and Heterogeneous co‐Doping Strategies
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.This article presents a comprehensive co‐doping toolkit to optimize the performance and reliability of fluorite‐structure ferroelectrics like hafnium oxide. By employing homogeneous and heterogeneous co‐doping strategies, precise control over crystallization behavior, polarization hysteresis, and oxygen vacancy distribution is achieved.
