StabilizingZinc Anodes via MoS2/Biomass-DerivedCarbon Composite toward High-Performance Aqueous Zinc-Ion Batteries

Abstract Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have garnered extensive attention owing to their advantages of low cost, high safety, and environmental friendliness. However, the zinc anode suffers from several critical issues during charge–discharge cycles, such as zinc dendrite gro...

A Review of Rejuvenation Strategies Targeting Mesenchymal Stem Cell Senescence and Their Impact on Bone Health and Regeneration

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this article is to emphasize the critical role aging and senescence plays on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) functionality and its influence on bone health. This review also highlights recent advancements in strategies to rejuvenate senescent...

TUS OS Paper 4 — Technical Volume I: Formal Foundations and the Complete-Future Corpus

Abstract TUS OS Paper 4 — Technical Volume I: Formal Foundations and the Complete-Future Corpus establishes the formal and computational foundation for the whole-Triad state-and-process synthesis programme developed across Paper 4. It fixes the governing source hierarchy, inherit...

Generative Paper 14 — Quantum State & Measurement: Presentation-Level Constraints in Generative Architecture

The Quantum State is established in the Generative Architecture as the presentation-level operational domain of an organization composed of projected cycles. Realization generates organizational structure through recursive execution, projection exposes realized organization throu...

Multi-omics technology explores the course and heterogeneity of multiple primary lung cancers

In this study, we used spatial transcriptome sequencing combined with scRNA-seq analysis to analyze MPLC tumors and adjacent adjacent tissues to explore the formation mechanism of multiple primary lesions in MPLC.

Immunization withthe Tc85-Derived Peptide Displayedon Virus-like Particles Confers Protection against Trypanosoma cruzi Infection

Abstract Chagas disease, caused by the Trypanosoma cruzi, remains a major global health burden with limited prophylactic options. We describe a vaccine platform that leverages a peptide epitope derived from the T. cruzi trans-sialidase group II (Tc85pep), displayed on the virus-l...

Impact of yielding material upsets on cold pressure welded C101 joint strength for potential use in the space environment

Abstract Cold Welding (CW) is a solid-state metal joining process associated with the unintended bonding of metal surfaces in space. The bond can be classified as a weld (joint strength = σ yield ) or partial weld (< σ yield ). CW is closely related to Cold Pressure Welding (C...

A single-donor proof-of-concept single-cell analysis maps heterogeneous differentiation trajectories toward cartilage-like states in human urine-derived stem cells

Abstract Background Urine-derived stem cells (USCs) represent an accessible and non-invasive cell source with reported chondrogenic differentiation potential. However, the cellular heterogeneity and transcriptional dynamics underlying USC differentiation remain incompletely under...

Solvent-MediatedThermal Crosslinking of SulfonatedAromatic Polymers

Abstract Thermal crosslinking of sulfonated aromatic polymers is commonly reported in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which is often treated as indispensable for forming stable sulfone bridges from sulfonic acid groups. Here, we compare solvent effects on thermal crosslinking for thre...

Warning Cairo Before the Air Turns Dangerous: Forecasting High-AQI Episodes for Citizens and City Governments

The ProblemAir-quality forecasts exist to warn citizens before pollution reaches dangerous thresholds. However, the machine-learning literature overwhelmingly evaluates these models using Mean Absolute Error (MAE). Because air quality is highly autocorrelated, naïve persistence m...

Boundary Certificates and an Information Barrier for a Six-Direction Affine Plank Problem on a Triangle

Bang's affine plank conjecture asserts that any collection of planks covering a convex body K in R^d has total relative width at least 1. The conjecture remains open, including in the plane, where the best known dimension-wide lower bound is 2/(1+sqrt(d)). This paper does not add...

Understandingthe Electronic Structure of RutheniumOxides during Redox Cycling with High Energy Resolution X-rayAbsorption Spectroscopy

Abstract Ruthenium oxides are essential catalysts and charge storage materials whose performance across reactions, from the oxygen evolution reaction to the chlor-alkali process, depends critically on reversible Ru redox cycling and the associated electronic structure changes. Al...

Extra-Endocrine Features in Infancy as Early Clues to MEN2B

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN2B) is a rare autosomal-dominant cancer predisposition syndrome in which prognosis is strongly influenced by the stage of medullary thyroid carcinoma at diagnosis. Virtually all affected children exhibit 1 or more extra-endocrine features...

Molecular Networking-GuidedDiscovery of New Calbistrinsfrom Aspergillus japonicus and IntegratedOmics Analyses of Their Phytotoxic Mechanism

Abstract Fungal species are a rich source of bioactive metabolites for agrochemical discovery. LC-MS/MS-guided molecular networking of Aspergillus japonicus led to the isolation of eight rare calbistrin-type polyketides (1–8), including three new derivatives, japonidienes J–L (1–...

CAT'S THEORY PRESENTS: Shell, Wish, and Noise: A Third Axis for Modal Evaluation

We identify Shells — propositions that are formally valid and actually instantiated but arise at worlds where no narrowing of the accessibility relation has occurred — and prove by bisimulation that the narrowing condition is inexpressible in standard multi-modal logic. A triadic...
