A Hybrid Hierarchical Framework for Quantifying Mechanical Markers in Atherosclerotic Disease Progression: A New Approach for Diagnosis and Risk Assessment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The mechanobiological basis of atherosclerotic progression and its contribution to spatial and temporal heterogeneity remain incompletely understood. Spatially resolved AFM measurements revealed that plaque formation and distinct regions (cap fibrosis, intimal fibrosis, and lipid‐rich core) exhibit heterogeneous elastic modulus and viscoelastic ...

Uniaxial Strain‐Driven Ferroelastic Domain Tuning in LaAlO3${\rm LaAlO}_3$

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The present work demonstrates based on AFM, μ$\umu$‐Raman spectroscopy, XRD, and first‐principles, that uniaxial strain provides a handle for tuning the ferroelastic domain populations in lanthanum aluminate, driving a continuous and controlled phase transition from a four‐variant rhombohedral crystal system to a two‐variant orthorhombic crystal system

Mechanically Regulated Secretion: How Physical Forces Instruct the Secretory Pathway and Remodel the Secretome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical cues, including ECM stiffness, stretch, compression, shear stress, and traction forces, remodel trafficking across the secretory pathway, from the ER and Golgi to endolysosomal compartments and the plasma membrane. The resulting secretome reshapes ECM composition and tissue mechanics, establishing feedback loops that support homeostasis or ...

Mode‐Resolved Phonon Dynamics Under Chemical Pressure in SnTe Thermoelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical pressure reshapes low‐energy optical phonons in SnTe, altering their dispersion and scattering with heat‐carrying acoustic modes. Positive and negative pressure states modify phonon frequencies and lifetimes in distinct ways, revealing how mode‐selective lattice perturbations regulate acoustic–optical interactions and suppress lattice thermal ...
