Unraveling the origin of air-stability in single-crystalline layered oxide positive electrode materials
Abstract Single-crystalline Ni-rich layered oxides present compelling advantages over conventional polycrystalline counterparts toward large-scale applications, including enhanced mechanical...
Accurate prediction of synthesizability and precursors of 3D crystal structures via large language models
Rapidly making biodegradable and recyclable paper plastic based on microwave radiation driven dynamic carbamate chemistry
Abstract In response to the looming concerns of plastic pollution, replacing plastic with paper is a very promising way, but its realization seems a long way off due to the poor water resist...
Pregnancy-acquired memory CD4+ regulatory T cells improve pregnancy outcome in mice
Abstract Subsequent pregnancies are generally less prone to obstetric complications. A successful pregnancy outcome requires pivotal immunological adaptation to ensure immune tolerance towar...
Activated GDF11/8 subforms predict cardiovascular events and mortality in humans
Towards arbitrary time-frequency mode squeezing with self-conjugated mode squeezing in fiber
High-performance ZrNiSn-based half-Heusler thermoelectrics with hierarchical architectures enabled by reactive sintering
Abstract Half-Heusler compounds are promising thermoelectric materials for high-temperature applications, yet their performance is limited by high lattice thermal conductivity. Here, we pres...
Colchicine in patients with aortic stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a double-blind randomized trial
Predicting mean depth and area fraction of Antarctic supraglacial melt lakes with physics-based parameterizations
Abstract Despite the importance of supraglacial melt lakes to the future evolution of polar ice sheets, they are not represented in current large-scale climate and ice sheet models....
The impact of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus infection on dairy cows
Designing multi-metal-site nanosheet catalysts for CO2 photoreduction to ethylene
Abstract Catalysts featuring multiple active sites hold significant potential for CO2 photoconversion to multi-carbon products. However, multi-metal-site catalysts typically face challenges...
Does rainfall create buoyant forcing at the ocean surface?
Hydrated ionic polymer for thermochromic smart windows in buildings
The defensome of prokaryotes in aquifers
Abstract Groundwater harbors a pristine biosphere where microbes co-evolve with less human interference, yet the ancient and ongoing arms race between prokaryotes and viruses remains largely...
Dual targeting of tumoral cells and immune microenvironment by blocking the IL-33/IL1RL1 pathway
Abstract Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) are a small yet powerful subset of leukemic cells that possess the ability to self-renew and have a long-term tumorigenic capacity, playing a crucial role...
Femtosecond switching of strong light-matter interactions in microcavities with two-dimensional semiconductors
Abstract Ultrafast all-optical logic devices based on nonlinear light-matter interactions hold the promise to overcome the speed limitations of conventional electronic devices. Stron...
Pulses of ocean acidification at the Triassic–Jurassic boundary
Abstract Mass extinctions have repeatedly perturbed the history of life, but their causes are often elusive. Ocean acidification has been implicated during Triassic–Jurassic environmental pe...
Generative AI enables medical image segmentation in ultra low-data regimes
Abstract Semantic segmentation of medical images is pivotal in applications like disease diagnosis and treatment planning. While deep learning automates this task effectively, it str...
A neurofunctional signature of affective arousal generalizes across valence domains and distinguishes subjective experience from autonomic reactivity
Regulating the N-oxidation selectivity of P450BM3 monooxygenases for N-heterocycles through computer-assisted structure-guided design
OsCDPK24 and OsCDPK28 phosphorylate heat shock factor OsHSFA4d to orchestrate abiotic and biotic stress responses in rice
Quantitative phase imaging with temporal kinetics predicts hematopoietic stem cell diversity
Immunodiagnostic plasma amino acid residue biomarkers detect cancer early and predict treatment response
Abstract The immune response to tumour development is frequently targeted with therapeutics but remains largely unexplored in diagnostics, despite being stronger for early-stage tumours. We...
Sex difference in BAT thermogenesis depends on PGC-1α–mediated phospholipid synthesis in mice
Abstract Brown adipose tissue (BAT), a thermogenic tissue that plays an important role in systemic energy expenditure, has histological and functional sex differ...
