Nanoporous titanium implant functionalized with sustained strontium release orchestrates immune microenvironment for enhanced osseointegration

Objectives Insufficient osseointegration remains a major limitation of dental and orthopedic implants. This study aimed to develop a strontium-releasing nanoporous titanium surface (TDS) with improved interfacial stability and immunomodulatory capacity to promote implant osseoint...

Holistic co-design of fibre-optic distributed acoustic sensing and coherent communication

Integrating sensing into communication is crucial for the fully-connected and intelligent development of modern life. However, existing fiber-optic sensing and communication systems merely coexist without inadequate resource sharing, resulting in limited scalability for large-sca...

The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in the development and progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC): mechanistic insights and translational challenges

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) ranks as the sixth most prevalent malignancy worldwide, encompassing tumors derived from the mucosal epithelia of the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and other head and neck regions. Most patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage due t...
