Analysis of serum NMR metabolomics in fibrotic diseases of the myocardium
INTRODUCTION: Heart failure accounts for more than 43% of annual deaths worldwide, and isdriven by widespread pathological remodeling, in which myocardial fibrosis plays an important role. Currently, accurate clinical diagnosis of myocardialfibrosis (MF) remains difficult, with e...

Multi-objective optimization of seismic upgrading interventions in existing RC buildings
Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures designed before the implementation of modern seismic codes often exhibit inadequate seismic performances and high vulnerability to earthquake-induced damage. Seismic retrofitting is therefore crucial for addressing construction deficie...

Wnt5a/Ca2+ signal promotes myogenic differentiation by mediating a slow and sustained influx of Ca2+
The extracellular Ca 2+ is crucial for the regeneration of skeletal muscles, but there is still uncertainty regarding the channels through which it enters the cells. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the Wnt5a/Ca²⁺ signaling pathway promotes myogenic differentiation...

Stage-aligned electro-ionic biobattery hydrogel for enhanced wound closure and scar reduction
Coupling electrical stimulation (ES) with biochemical signaling is attractive for coordinating multi-stage wound healing, yet existing biobatteries rarely deliver stable microcurrents with stage-aligned chemical therapy in a scalable format. Here, we report a 3D-printed zinc-iron...
