Unveiling Alterations of Epigenetic Modifications and Chromatin Architecture Leading to Lipid Metabolic Reprogramming during the Evolutionary Trastuzumab Adaptation of HER2-Positive Breast Cancer.

Secondary trastuzumab resistance represents an evolutionary adaptation of HER2-positive breast cancer during anti-HER2 treatment. Most current studies have tended to prioritize HER2 and its associated signaling pathways, often overlooking broader but seemingly less relevant cellular processes, along with their associated genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. Here, transcriptome data is not only characterized but also examined epigenomic and 3D genome architecture information in both trastuzumab-sensitive and secondary-resistant breast cancer cells.

Highly Efficient Monolithic Perovskite/Perovskite/Silicon Triple-Junction Solar Cells.

Wide-bandgap metal halide perovskites have demonstrated promise in multijunction photovoltaic (PV) cells. However, photoinduced phase segregation and the resultant low open-circuit voltage (V) have greatly limited the PV performance of perovskite-based multijunction devices. Here, a alloying strategy is reported to achieve uniform distribution of triple cations and halides in wide-bandgap perovskites by doping Rb and Cl with small ionic radii, which effectively suppresses halide phase segregation while promoting the homogenization of surface potential.

Ionic Liquid Modified Polymer Intermediate Layer for Improved Charge Extraction toward Efficient and Stable Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells.

Monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells have been attracted much attention in recent years. Despite their high performances, the stability issue of perovskite-based devices is recognized as one of the key challenges to realize industrial application. When comes to the perovskite top subcell, the interface between perovskite and electron transporting layers (usually C) significantly affects the device efficiency as well as the stability due to their poor adhesion.

Designing polymers for cartilage uptake: effects of architecture and molar mass.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive disease, involving the progressive breakdown of cartilage, as well as changes to the synovium and bone. There are currently no disease-modifying treatments available clinically. An increasing understanding of the disease pathophysiology is leading to new potential therapeutics, but improved approaches are needed to deliver these drugs, particularly to cartilage tissue, which is avascular and contains a dense matrix of collagens and negatively charged aggrecan proteoglycans.

Recent Progress in Interfacial Dipole Engineering for Perovskite Solar Cells.

Design and modification of interfaces have been the main strategies in developing perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Among the interfacial treatments, dipole molecules have emerged as a practical approach to improve the efficiency and stability of PSCs due to their unique and versatile abilities to control the interfacial properties.

Variation of Charge Carrier Dynamics for Polycrystalline Perovskite Films by One-Step Solution and Vapor-Deposition Methods.

To date, solution-processing and vapor-deposition fabrication methods have achieved huge successes in high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and satisfy special demanding requirements for diverse application purposes, respectively. Although people realize that the fabrication procedure is crucial in device performance, insightful studies of charge carrier dynamics in perovskite films by different methods still lack. In this work, we compare the carrier behaviors in one-step spin-coated and dual-source coevaporated MAPbI perovskite films by combining time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy and carrier dynamics simulation.
