Bioinspired Liquid Pockets with Externally Induced Internal Microscale Flow.

The gastric mucosal barrier, through its gastric pits, serves as a pathway for secretions, ensuring that mucus produced by the gastric glands is transferred to the gastric lumen, providing stable protection. Here a bioinspired liquid pockets material is shown, composed of a thermo-driven hydrogel that acts as an external activation unit to release interflowing liquid responsively, and porous matrices that serve as interconnected pockets to transfer it, enabling controlled internal flow and adaptive barrier functionality. Experiments and theoretical analysis demonstrate the stability and regulatory mechanisms of these liquid pockets, based on the interconnected pockets between the external activation unit and internal fluid flow.

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) resistance poses a significant challenge in the treatment of rectal cancer, driving the need for novel therapeutic strategies. In this study, we established 5-FU-resistant rectal cancer cell lines (SW837-r, SNU-C1-r) and identified homoharringtonine (HHT) as a potent and selective anticancer agent through high-throughput drug screening of 291 compounds. HHT displayed the highest selective drug sensitivity score (sDSS), showing strong activity against resistant cells while sparing normal rectal epithelial cells.

Chemical Competing Diffusion for Practical All-Solid-State Batteries.

The thermal safety issues of currently available Ni-rich cathode-based power supplies brought in the development of all-solid-state batteries, yet the cascade reactions in Ni-rich materials and the chemo-mechanical degradation between the cathode and solid electrolyte diminished the cycle life. Here, by introducing a new heteroatom chemical competing diffusion strategy, we successfully stabilize the Ni-rich cathode and the contact face with an solid electrolyte. Combining extensive explorations in theoretical calculation and multiscale in/ex situ characterization, we elucidate the atomic-level chemical competing diffusion upon the topological lithiation of layered materials.
