Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

Prediction of Properties of Polymer Composite Formulations Using Ensemble Models With Feature Generation

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops an interpretable machine‐learning framework to predict multiple properties of polymer composites based on composition and processing variables. By combining ensemble models with composition‐based feature generation and SHAP‐based interpretation, the approach reveals composition‐property relationships and supports efficient multi ...

A Fully Automated Pipeline for Vertebral Structural Assessment From Medical Images. Application Under Metastatic Conditions

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 7, July 2026.
We present an automated CT‐to‐simulation workflow to estimate structural response and fracture risk in metastasis‐affected vertebrae. Deep learning performs vertebral identification and segmentation, while CPD assigns geometry‐aware boundary conditions.

Selective Optical Properties of Cement for Enhanced Radiative Cooling and Energy‐Efficient Construction Materials

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.

Synergistic Effects of Microwave and Osmotic Dehydration on Food Processing: A Comprehensive Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The combination of osmotic dehydration (OD) and microwave radiation (MW), referred to as microwave‐assisted osmotic dehydration (MWOD), has emerged as a promising hybrid strategy for optimizing food processing by enhancing mass transfer and preserving bioactive compounds.

A multilayered regulatory framework linking cell wall remodelling, redox homeostasis, and metabolic plasticity during leaf development in Arabidopsis thaliana

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
This study proposes a three‐layered regulatory model illustrating the transition from cell wall remodelling to redox homeostasis during leaf maturation. The model integrates structural extensibility (CESA8, XTH15), redox‐metabolic balancing (AOX1A), and transcriptional feedback mediated by NAC13.

S100A4 Orchestrates Fibroblast Fate to Drive Fibrotic Remodeling

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 12, 30 June 2026.
Fibrotic stimuli induce S100A4 expression, promoting the activation of apoptosis‐resistant fibroblasts through engagement of ERK‐associated signaling. In fibroblasts, S100A4 orchestrates fibroblast fate by enhancing migration, promoting stress fiber formation, increasing ECM contractility, upregulating α‐SMA expression, and supporting survival ...
