Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
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.

YKT6 Promotes Bladder Cancer Progression by Stabilizing β‐catenin Through USP7‐Mediated Deubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The SNARE protein YKT6 is upregulated in bladder cancer (BLCA), correlating with poor prognosis. YKT6 promotes tumor proliferation and metastasis by activating Wnt/β‐catenin signaling. It recruits Ubiquitin‐Specific Peptidase 7 (USP7) to deubiquitinate and stabilize β‐catenin, enhancing its nuclear accumulation and driving oncogenic gene expression ...

METTL1‐Mediated M7G tRNA Modification Promotes Residual Liver Regeneration After Hepatectomy via Translational Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
METTL1 and its mediated m7G tRNA modification are significantly up‐regulated after partial hepatectomy (PHx). Overexpression of METTL1 improves the efficiency of liver regeneration after PHx, increases the proliferation of hepatocytes, and accelerates the recovery of liver function.

Thyroid Hormone Receptor β1 and PGC1α Coordinately Regulate OPA1/MFN2‐Mediated Mitochondrial Fusion and UCP1‐Mediated Lipid Browning in ccRCC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Thyroid hormone receptor β1 (TRβ) downregulation correlates with poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Restoration of TRβ and the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma coactivator 1‐alpha suppresses tumor progression in ccRCC through Uncoupling protein 1 mediated tumor cell “slimming” and optic atrophy 1/mitofusin 2 ...
