Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

The astounding exhaustiveness and speed of the Astral mass analyzer for highly complex samples is a quantum leap in the functional analysis of microbiomes

Microbiome
Background By analyzing the proteins which are the workhorses of biological systems, metaproteomics allows us to list the taxa present in any microbiota, monitor their relative biomass, and characterize the functioning of complex biological systems ...

Explicit Compression Degradation Estimations for Low‐Sampling Single‐Pixel Imaging using Hadamard Basis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposes a degradation estimation technique to explicitly describe compressive sampling for low‐sampling Hadamard single‐pixel imaging. Blur kernels in explicit degradation models are estimated by the self‐supervised learning method without labeled data and implicit priors.

Preservation of Complex Multiphase Architectures in Polymer‐Based Artificial Cells by Photo‐Crosslinking

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phase separation organizes cellular components, yet stabilizing such dynamic structures in artificial cells remains challenging. A photo‐crosslinking approach is presented that prolongs the lifetime of different structures in coacervate‐based artificial cells while maintaining dynamic formation.

Revolutionaries and Spies

Discrete Mathematics, 2012
Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph and let $r,s,k$ be positive integers. "Revolutionaries and Spies", denoted $\cG(G,r,s,k)$, is the following two-player game. The sets of positions for player 1 and player 2 are $V^r$ and $V^s$ respectively. Each coordinate in $p \in V^r$ gives the location of a "revolutionary" in $G$.

Amodiaquine Enhances Anti‐Melanoma Efficacy of Attenuated Salmonella via Targeting Glutathione Reductase in Neutrophils

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that Salmonella VNP20009 recruits pro‐tumor neutrophils that reduce its anticancer efficacy. Combining VNP with amodiaquine selectively eliminates these neutrophils by targeting glutathione reductase. A GR‐shRNA‐loaded VNP strain was further developed, demonstrating an innovative strategy integrating drug repurposing with synthetic ...

Parallel Genome‐Wide CRISPR Screens Reveal SORL1 and ZFYVE19 as Sequential Host Determinants of Salmonella Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To distinguish how Salmonella invades cells vs how it survives long‐term, a parallel CRISPR screening platform is developed. This approach reveals the host proteins that the bacterium exploits at different stages of infection. The study identifies SORL1 as a novel host factor for invasion and demonstrates that blocking it with an antibody effectively ...

Targeting Microglial CD49a Inhibits Neuroinflammation and Demonstrates Therapeutic Potential for Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that integrin receptor CD49a (Itga1 gene) is significantly upregulated in hyperactivated microglia and microglia‐specific knockdown of Itga1 rescues neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in a chronic Parkinson's disease (PD) model by targeting PGAM5‐mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and NLRP3 activation. Targeted inhibition of CD49a
