Nonlinear Ion‐Specific Control of Underwater Adhesion by Bottlebrush Polymer Interfaces
The efficiency of underwater adhesion is modulated by ion‐specific effects. Strongly hydrated Na+ remains separated from the mica surface by its hydration shell, preserving access to binding sites, whereas weakly hydrated K+ can partially dehydrate and occupy ditrigonal cavities.

Administration of opioids activates ephrinB2‐EphB1 receptor signaling. Activated EphB1 receptors induce GRK2‐mediated phosphorylation of MOR at Ser375, which initiates the internalization of MOR and reduces opioid antinociception at the behavioral level. ABSTRACT Opioids are the primary treatment for severe pain in clinical practice.

Diabetic bone defects remain a critical clinical challenge. A 3D‐printed BCPG‐MF@Y scaffold, embedding Yoda1‐functionalized manganese dioxide‐ferritin nanozymes, scavenges mtROS, suppresses the cGAS–STING pathway, and reverses cellular senescence, while Yoda1 activates Piezo1 to direct BMSCs fate to synergistically reprogram the osteoimmune ...

The blood–brain–tumor barrier (BBTB) penetration by anticancer drugs and their effects on glioblastoma (GBM) is assessed using 3D bioprinted‐spheroids. Anticancer drug‐induced U‐87 MG cell death is quantified through in situ imaging of spheroids using a cancer cell death probe. The Ru compound, a partial P‐gp substrate, induces greater tumor‐cell death

Spatiotemporal Regulation of Hierarchical Assembly of Hydroxyapatite for Enamel Remineralization
Biomimetic repair exhibits unique advantages for enamel regeneration compared with conventional clinical treatments. An enzymatic mineralization system (EMS) is developed, where the resulting HAP nanorods hierarchically assemble into a highly ordered structure on the enamel surface through the spatiotemporal modulation of interfacial energies of ...
