Summary: The study examines the attachment property of suspension cells on PDA surfaces, finding that suspension cells can directly attach to PDA coatings without secondary modifications. A novel PDA-based suspension-cell QCM biosensor was fabricated, demonstrating high repeatability, stability, and low nonspecific binding. Real-time evaluation of lectin binding on suspension cells indicates glycosylation variations on cell surfaces, offering a new strategy for complex molecular recognition studies.

Summary: This study proposes a novel strategy that combines a cell wall-loosening zwitterionic liquid (ZIL) with a peptide-displaying micelle complex to achieve organelle-specific DNA delivery in plants. By enhancing cell wall permeability, the micelle complexes can effectively deliver DNA cargo into specific plant organelles with significantly augmented efficiency.

Summary: Active peptides, with their wide variety of sources, easy access, significant curative effect, and high safety, have become a new research direction in various fields. Microencapsulation technology effectively solves the difficulties in preservation, delivery, and slow release of exposed peptides, improving their utilization rate. This paper reviews the commonly used materials and embedding technologies for active peptides, with a focus on four new technologies. The new technologies improve the efficiency and embedding rate of microencapsulated peptides and allow for controllable particle size. The current applications of peptide microcapsules in different fields are also introduced.

Summary: This study conducted numerical analysis on smart composite shear walls using infilled steel plates and concrete, showing how factors such as gap width, steel plate thickness, concrete wall thickness, and shear stud distance affect the behavior of the composite shear wall. Results indicated that changes in these factors led to improvements in stiffness, energy absorption, ductility, and strength capacity of the model.

Summary: This study investigates the out-of-plane bending behavior of two-dimensional periodic plates through finite element simulations and experiments. The effect of unit-cell topologies on the bending responses of the plates is compared numerically and experimentally. The use of beam elements in finite element models allows for approximate predictions of the bending behavior of the plates. The observed bending behavior of the plates is compared with literature findings to validate the finite element results.

Summary: Bipolar plates are crucial components of proton exchange membrane fuel cell stacks, requiring various properties for stable operation. Composite bipolar plates offer advantages like low cost, easy processing, and corrosion resistance, but face challenges in balancing electrical conductivity and flexural strength.

Summary: This study used finite element models to simulate the effects of different FSS levels and cell spacings or frequencies on the distribution of local wall FSS around cells. The results showed that an increase in cell spacing decreased the polarization of wall FSS distribution around cells, with frequency having minimal effect at low FSS levels and enhancing fluctuation at high FSS levels. These findings lay a foundation for further research on the flow-induced migration of osteoclast precursors and shed light on the mechanism of mechanical stimulation-induced bone resorption.

Summary: The study showed that exposure to hyperosmotic stress in Kitasatospora viridifaciens leads to DNA compaction, membrane and S-cell extrusion, and thinning of the cell wall at hyphal tips. The extrusion of S-cells is abolished in a cytoskeletal mutant strain that lacks the intermediate filament-like protein FilP, indicating that S-cell formation is dependent on functional cytoskeleton remodeling. Furthermore, micro-aerobic culturing promotes the formation of S-cells in the wild type, showing that S-cell formation is stimulated by oxygen-limiting conditions.

Summary: This study employed non-destructive testing techniques, such as sonic pulse velocity, hygrometric tests, and infrared thermography, to evaluate the condition of 15th-century frescoes. The analysis revealed significant insights into the detachment and degradation of the plaster, humidity variations, and temperature inhomogeneities in the wall structure. Furthermore, the results were compared and integrated with other non-destructive and analytical methods.

Summary: The large surface thermal management technology of pouch cells was studied and discussed through simulation. Two cells are managed by a single cold plate. The pressure drop of the cold plate was simulated and the velocity distribution of the flow field was observed. The cooling performance of the cold plate to the cell and the low-temperature heating ability of the cold plate to the cell were analyzed. It was concluded that the large surface thermal management technology can effectively and quickly control the temperature rise of the cell when the cell is charging and discharging and the temperature difference is less than 5 ? . Finally, a control strategy for low-temperature heating of the cell by the cold plate was proposed.

Summary: This article aims to provide the reader with the latest evidence-based knowledge to optimize the care of patients requiring chest wall reconstruction. Chest wall reconstruction is crucial for restoring respiratory function, protecting internal organs, and supporting the shoulder girdle. Advances in reconstructive techniques have made it feasible to resect large complex tumors and safely restore chest wall integrity with minimal or no secondary deficits in a timely manner.

Summary: The nuclear pore complex (NPC) and its associated proteins (NUPs) play important roles in gene transcription and 3D genome organization. This study demonstrates that core NUPs are associated with active promoters and enhancers in human cells, and NUP93 has a direct and specific role in gene transcriptional activation. NUP93 facilitates the recruitment of BRD4 to active enhancers, leading to increased RNA polymerase II loading and transcriptional elongation. Surprisingly, the depletion of NUP93 has negligible effects on 3D genome organization.
