Sweat-pumping cooling fabric for enhanced power generation and comfort
CO2 radiative forcing induces summer cooling over India
Text embedding models yield detailed conceptual knowledge maps derived from short multiple-choice quizzes
Abstract Real-world conceptual knowledge is complex, multifaceted, and substantially over-simplified in most laboratory studies. Here we develop a mathematical framework, based on na...
Flexible rubber with metal-like thermal conductivity achieved via hydrogen bonding engineering
A high-throughput conditioned-media-based screening system identifies inhibitors of aggregation induced by iPSC-secreted amyloid β
Abstract In early drug discovery, in vitro screening is frequently used, but selected candidates often fail in vivo. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)–based d...
Sperm hyperactivation drives a circling-and-wandering swimming behavior
Abstract During migration through the female reproductive tract, sperm undergo physiological changes known as capacitation, including a motility transition termed hyperactivation. Hy...
B–N–B Embedded multiple-resonance polyaromatic enabling efficient narrowband electroluminescence
Continuous evolution of a halogenase enzyme with improved solubility and activity for sustainable bioproduction
Abstract Halogenation enhances the stability and function of pharmaceuticals, biomaterials, and industrial compounds. However, chemical halogenation of molecules...
Modulation of quantum geometry and its coupling to pseudo-electric field by dynamic strain
KIF11 prevents retinal endothelial ferroptosis in familial exudative vitreoretinopathy by inhibiting phosphorylation-driven PRDX1 phase separation
Abstract Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy is a hereditary disorder predominantly affecting infants and young children, often leading to severe vision loss. A...
Direct conversion of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin to jet fuel via relay catalysis
A single-atom potential confinement strategy for stabilizing rhodium nanocatalysts in methane oxidation
SNX-mediated biogenesis of a plant-unique vesicle derived from the multivesicular body
Balanced-state electrolytes overcome crossover in vanadium redox flow batteries
Vascular invasion-associated gene expression is detectable in pre-surgical biopsies of stage I lung adenocarcinoma
Abstract Microscopic vascular invasion (VI) predicts recurrence and benefit from lobectomy in stage I lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) but cannot be accurately predicted before surgery. Th...
Anterior cingulate neurons combine outcome monitoring of past decisions with ongoing movement signals
Abstract In dynamic environments, animals must closely monitor the effects of their actions to inform switches in behavioral strategy. Anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) neurons track d...
IgA autoantibodies promote inflammation, Th17 polarization and fibrotic responses in hidradenitis suppurativa
Abstract Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with complex immune dysregulation. While previous studies have reported tertiary lymphoid structures (TL...
Medium-scale integrated circuits based on p-type 2D semiconducting MoTe2
Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors hold promise for next-generation electronics, yet the lack of scalable p-type counterparts remains a major bottlenec...
Asymmetric histone inheritance regulates olfactory stem cell fates during regeneration
Abstract The olfactory epithelium possesses an adult stem cell population, the horizontal basal cells (HBCs), to permit lifelong tissue regeneration. Here, we show that HBCs exhibit...
Governing principles of hydration of mixed proton conducting Co-based double perovskites
Abstract Proton ceramic electrochemical cells PCECs hold promise for efficient, sustainable production and use of hydrogen. The positive electrodes are mixed pro...
Efficient Pt1Ni single-atom alloy catalyst for hydrogen-free catalytic fractionation of lignocellulose
Sex-specific KDM6A-HNF4A-CREBH network controls lipoprotein cholesterol metabolism and atherosclerosis via epigenetic reprograming of hepatocytes
Abstract The liver is a central organ controlling lipid and cholesterol metabolism and plays a key role in regulating lipoprotein profiles and cardiovascular disease risk. Males and...
