Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots
A new mechanical model of a tendon‐actuated helical extension spring joint in surgical robots is built using Cosserat rod theory. The model can implicitly handle the unknown contacts between adjacent coils and numerically predict spring shapes from straight to significantly bent under actuation forces.

CCDC183‐AS1 overexpression enhanced the ability of PCa cells to spread to the bone by inducing osteoclastogenesis. Mechanistically, CCDC183‐AS1 interacted with FUBP1 and enhanced its stability, which promoted the transcription of TNFSF14 (LIGHT). Copy number gain‐induced KDM5C epigenetically upregulated CCDC183‐AS1 expression by recruiting TET1 to the ...

SIRT3 expression is significantly downregulated in the aged kidney, rendering the kidney more vulnerable to fibrotic changes in obstructive nephropathy. By promoting GSK‐3β deacetylation, SIRT3 indirectly inhibits Wnt/β‐catenin signaling, thereby suppressing renal fibrosis.
