Enhancing the driving safety of the leading vehicle driver is crucial for improving the overall operational safety of the mixed platoon. Predictive-Forward-Collision-Warning (PFCW), an emerging technology in transportation, holds promise in mitigating collision risks for drivers by presenting traffic information beyond their immediate visual range.

Targeted radionuclide therapy, which delivers radiation precisely to tumor sites, shows promise for treating metastasis. The rational design of a prodrug activation platform using radionuclides would be an ideal approach to synergize chemotherapy with targeted radionuclide therapy, yet it has not been established.

Current evidence indicates that microRNAs (miRNAs) exert critical roles in many biological systems, including osteoblast differentiation. In this study, we examined miR-468-3p effects on osteogenic differentiation (OD).
