High-Performance Sunlight-Induced Polymerized Hydrogels and Applications in 3D and 4D Printing.

Currently, there are only few reports on water-soluble photoinitiating systems. In this study, a highly water-soluble organic dye i.e.

Immunological effects of CD19.CAR-T cell therapy in systemic sclerosis: an extended case study.

Objective: The high potential of CD19.CAR-T cells to treat autoimmune diseases such as Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) supposedly relies on the disappearance of autoantibodies. Here we investigated effects of CAR-T cells on the innate immune system which is an important contributor to pathology in SSc.

Endomicroscopic AI-driven morphochemical imaging and fs-laser ablation for selective tumor identification and selective tissue removal.

The rising incidence of head and neck cancer represents a serious global health challenge, requiring more accurate diagnosis and innovative surgical approaches. Multimodal nonlinear optical microscopy, combining coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS), two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF), and second-harmonic generation (SHG) with deep learning-based analysis routines, offers label-free assessment of the tissue's morphochemical composition and allows early-stage and automatic detection of disease. For clinical intraoperative application, compact devices are required.

Effect of simple shear on knotted polymer coils and globules.

We explore the effect of Couette flow on knotted linear polymer chains with extensive molecular dynamics simulations. Hydrodynamic interactions are accounted for using multi-particle collision dynamics. The polymer chain, originally containing a simple trefoil knot at rest, is described by a coarse-grained bead-spring model in a coil or globular state.

Amplifying Lewis acidity by oxidation: leveraging the redox-activity of bis(3,6-di--butyl-catecholato)silane.

Bis(catecholato)silanes were showcased as strong Lewis acids, while their inherent redox activity remained unexplored in this context. In the present work, we study the oxidation of monomeric bis(3,6-di--butyl-catecholato)silane (1), leading to the Lewis superacidic radicalic silylium ionradical 1˙+ (FIA 784 kJ mol). Oxidation of 1 with [N(-CHBr)][B(CF)] yielded [1][B(CF)], displaying strong catalytic activity in the Friedel-Crafts-dimerization, hydrodeoxygenation and carbonyl-olefin-metathesis.
