A Canine Musculoskeletal Robot for Investigating Biomechanical Functions During Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this study, a dog limb musculoskeletal robot was developed using thin McKibben artificial muscles to investigate the effects of the dog's musculoskeletal structure on walking. Walking experiments were conducted in both indoor and outdoor environments, suggesting that the flexible structure of the dog's shoulders contributes to an increase in stroke ...

Corn Zein Nanocarriers for Agrochemical Delivery and Smart Packaging

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This review explores zein, a corn‐derived biodegradable protein, as a multifunctional nanocarrier for sustainable agriculture and packaging. It examines advances in agrochemical delivery, smart packaging, and stimuli‐responsive systems, while addressing scalability, environmental fate, and regulatory barriers.

Pathogenicity of Mediator Complex Subunit 27 (MED27) in a Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Cerebellar Atrophy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MED27 is one of the 26 subunits in the human Mediator complex (MED). Neurodevelopmental disorder‐causing MED27 genetic variants induce instability of MED, leading to disrupted DNA occupancy, altered chromatin interaction, and subsequent transcriptional dysregulation of critical downstream genes, including master regulatory transcription factors ...

Cryopreserved Human Otic Neuronal Spheroids Self‐assemble for Functional Connectivity Analysis and Long‐term Ototoxicity Evaluation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes a robust and reproducible protocol for generating human otic neuronal spheroids (hONS) from cryopreserved hPSC‐derived pre‐placodal ectoderm cells. These hONS further differentiate into functional SGN‐like neurons, which extend neurite projections toward both murine hair cells and human cortical organoids, thereby forming ...

Muscle Organoids Reveal Exercise‐Like Contractions Rapidly Promote Muscle Health Via Lamtor1's Signaling to Both AMPK and mTOR

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel 3D human skeletal muscle organoid platform to study the immediate molecular effects of exercise‐like contractions. The model uncovers rapid proteomic and transcriptomic responses, resolving a fundamental paradox by demonstrating how exercise‐induced Lamtor1 coordinately activates both AMPK and mTORC1. Lamtor1 is a compelling

Two Homogametic Genotypes – One Crayfish: On the Consequences of Intersexuality

iScience, 2020
Summary: In the Australian redclaw crayfish, Cherax quadricarinatus (WZ/ZZ system), intersexuals, although exhibiting both male and female gonopores, are functional males bearing a female genotype (WZ males).
