Functional Materials for Environmental Energy Harvesting in Smart Agriculture via Triboelectric Nanogenerators

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 13, 12 February 2026.
This review explores functional and responsive materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) in sustainable smart agriculture. It examines how particulate contamination and dirt affect charge transfer and efficiency. Environmental challenges and strategies to enhance durability and responsiveness are outlined, including active functional layers ...

Recent Advances in Collective Behaviors of Micro/Nanomotor Swarms

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 9, 12 February 2026.
This review describes the driving forces behind collective motion, explores the self‐organization of micro/nano swarms across zero‐dimensional (0D), one‐dimensional (1D), two‐dimensional (2D), and three‐dimensional (3D) spaces, and highlights their potential in drug delivery, environmental monitoring, and smart devices.

Auditory Hair Cell Mechanotransduction Channels Dynamically Shape the Mechanical Properties of Their Membrane Environment

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
This work shows, for the first time, that the stereocilia membrane in cochlear hair cells is dynamically regulated by the mechanotransduction channel to impact the membrane mechanical properties. This work provides direct evidence that the opening and closing associated with the MET channel is regulating the membrane viscosity suggesting that the MET ...

Human Atlas of Tooth Decay Progression: Identification of Cellular Mechanisms Driving the Switch from Dental Pulp Repair Toward Irreversible Pulpitis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Tooth decay progression transforms the dental pulp response from repair to fibrosis. At early stages, stromal cells reprogram to repair the extra cellular matrix (ECM), blood vessels, and nerves, remodel and grow, keeping repair possible. In advanced decay, hypoxia, and vessel regression, in complement with an immune switch, fuel nerve degeneration and

Surface‐Associated Proteins on Extracellular Vesicles Remodel the Tumor Microenvironment by Potentiating TGF‐β Signaling in a Contact‐Dependent Manner

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from TGF‐β‐activated CAFs are enriched with ECM proteins such as TSG6 and THBS1, which facilitate their binding to recipient cell membranes. This EV–cell interaction promotes the clustering of CD44 and TGF‐β receptors on the target cell surface, thereby potentiating TGF‐β signaling activity. This study highlights a

Evaluating the Risk of Collision of Seals Swimming Within Metres of Operating Tidal Turbines

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT We used imaging sonar to continuously monitor wildlife at an operational tidal turbine in the Pentland Firth, Scotland, between May 2022 and June 2023. Of 704 detected seal tracks, 347 occurred during turbine operation and 122 of these were detected directly upstream of the rotating blades in the horizontal plane.

Tissue‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Define Diagnostic Biomarkers for Renal Cell Carcinoma

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
Tissue‐derived EVs reveal renal cell carcinoma subtype biomarkers (NDUFA4L2/VEGFA/APOC1). Validated in urinary EVs (AUC 0.92), these markers originate from cancer cells and tumour‐associated macrophages via scRNA‐seq, enabling non‐invasive diagnosis and mechanistic insights into RCC progression.
