Researchers found that the Onsager reciprocity principle is violated in the cell model of an ion-exchange membrane. The violation occurs when gradients of external forces do not coincide with local gradients within the framework of linear thermodynamics.
A team from Peking University achieved a major breakthrough in imaging 15 cellular structures simultaneously using lipid membrane probes, dual-color spinning-disk confocal microscopy, and deep learning. This method enables real-time, long-term organelle tracking with improved efficiency and reduced phototoxicity.
Researchers develop a novel self-assembling prodrug, LDO, that targets glycolysis and STING signaling to alleviate inflammation and improve survival in sepsis animal models. LDO reprograms macrophage polarization, reducing cytokine storms and acute lung injury.
A day-long conference brought together experts to present ground-breaking outcomes research on CTEPH treatments. The session covered new medications, refined techniques, and innovative approaches to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
Researchers at Beijing Institute of Technology developed a steering control strategy for cyborg insects using unilateral cercus electrical stimulation, achieving high memory scores in cockroach training. The study demonstrates the potential for electrical stimulation to promote spatial learning and recognition in insects.
The first-ever Cardiogenic Shock Academy features a simulation lab, providing hands-on training for treating patients in cardiogenic shock. More than 160 healthcare practitioners from around the world attended the academy, which aimed to address the lack of conclusive research for managing CS.
A scientist from Tokyo Metropolitan University has resolved the thirty-year mystery of dissonance in gravitational waves emitted by a black hole. The phenomenon was caused by resonance between two distinctive modes, which is not a rare incident but turns up universally in a range of modes.
