A biomechanical optimized Zr58Cu25Al14Nb3 bulk metallic glass dental implant improves peri‐implant stress distribution and bone quality under physiological loading

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This study reports a novel Zr58Cu25Al14Nb3 bulk metallic glass that possesses high mechanical strength and low elastic modulus, which further promotes efficient mechanotransduction and significantly improves peri‐implant bone quality upon cyclic occlusal loading.

Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are gaps and biases in our knowledge, including the choice of basibionts, the methods used, and the habitats ...

Heat stress in spermatogenesis: a redox‐dependent decision network linking ROS, autophagy, and regulated cell death

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat stress (HS) is an increasing threat to male reproductive health, disrupting spermatogenesis through complex and interdependent cellular responses within the seminiferous epithelium. Although excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is a hallmark of HS, ROS also act as central regulators of cell fate decisions beyond their role ...

Engineering and Characterization of a Fluorescent Fission Yeast Arp2/3 Complex for Single Molecule Mechanistic Investigations

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arp2/3 complex is a seven‐component protein complex that facilitates the assembly of branched actin filament networks by binding to pre‐existing “mother” actin filaments and initiating the nucleation of new branched “daughter” filaments. Arp2/3 complex must be activated by a nucleation promoting factor such as the WASP/Scar protein family. The

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Fixation Induces Mislocalization of Thin Filament Components in Caenorhabditis elegans Striated Muscle

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The simple nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has long served as a powerful genetic model system for studying muscle structure and function, with sarcomeres of the striated body wall muscle (BWM) that are considered largely homologous to those in vertebrates.

All‐in‐One Intelligent Hemostatic Sponge: Rapid Hemostasis for Non‐Compressive Wounds With Synergetic Enhanced Antibacterial Efficacy and Self‐Reporting Biodegradation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Clinicians often concurrently tackle critical challenges including emergency hemorrhage, secondary infection, and the elusive tracking of biodegradation of conventional hemostatic agents for complex wounds. Here, we report an intelligent hemostatic sponge (spCS@AIE) by incorporating aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) nanoparticles with short‐wave ...
