Drought Stress Mediated Changes in Food Crops: Mechanisms and Remediation Strategies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a multi‐scale framework for flavonoid‐mediated drought tolerance in staple food crops, integrating ROS redox regulation, antioxidant defense, rhizosphere microbial interactions, and sustainable agronomic practices. This interdisciplinary model provides core insights to develop climate‐resilient cropping systems and enhance global ...

Monolayer MoS2 With Ultrahigh Piezoelectricity: From ALD Dose Control to Device Performance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that controlling precursor dosages in atomic layer deposition (ALD) serves to regulate ultrathin oxide quality, which in turn determines sulfurization behavior and MoS2 monolayer continuity. The resulting continuous, low‐defect monolayers enable improved piezoelectric performance and support a flexible slippage sensor, linking ...

KLF5 Downregulation Links Impaired BNIP3‐Mediated Mitophagy to Inflammatory Valve Remodeling in Calcific Aortic Valve Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In human CAVD, KLF5 is reduced in VIC‐rich regions and remodeling/stress‐associated VIC states. In VICs, KLF5 sustains BNIP3 promoter activity and BNIP3‐mediated mitophagy, thereby limiting cytosolic mtDNA accumulation. KLF5 loss weakens mitochondrial quality control and enhances mtDNA‐sensitive STING/NF‐κB/NLRP3 inflammatory signaling under osteogenic

A data-driven model for valve stiction [PDF]

, 2003
The presence of nonlinearities, e.g., striction, hysteresis and backlash in a control valve limits the control loop performance. Striction is the most common problem in spring-diaphragm type valves, which are widely used in the process industry.

SerpinA3 is an Endogenous TGF‐β Receptor Antagonist that Attenuates Cardiac Fibroblast Activation and Fibrotic Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SerpinA3 acts as an endogenous TGF‐β receptor antagonist that binds to the extracellular domain of TGFR‐1, thereby preventing TGFR‐1–TGFR‐2 complex formation. This receptor‐level blockade suppresses TGF‐β/Smad2/3 signaling, attenuates cardiac fibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition, and ultimately alleviates pressure overload–induced

14‐3‐3γ Protects Against Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction by Regulating Tau Thr205 Phosphorylation and Synaptic Integrity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrative multi‐cohort analyses identify 14‐3‐3γ as a biomarker and regulator of cognitive vulnerability. Experimental studies show that 14‐3‐3γ loss is associated with Tau Thr205 phosphorylation, synaptic dysfunction, and cognitive impairment, while genetic overexpression or pharmacological stabilization of 14‐3‐3γ confers protective effects in ...

Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...
