Purpose: To quantify outer retina structural changes and define novel biomarkers of inherited retinal degeneration associated with biallelic mutations in RPE65 (RPE65-IRD) in patients before and after subretinal gene augmentation therapy with voretigene neparvovec (Luxturna).
Methods: Application of advanced deep learning for automated retinal layer segmentation, specifically tailored for RPE65-IRD. Quantification of five novel biomarkers for the ellipsoid zone (EZ): thickness, granularity, reflectivity, and intensity.

Unlabelled: Quorum sensing (QS) can regulate diverse critical phenotypic responses in (), enabling bacterial adaptation to external environmental fluctuations and optimizing population advantages. While there is emerging evidence of QS's involvement in influencing phage infections, our current understanding remains limited, necessitating further investigation. In this study, we isolated and characterized a novel phage designated as BUCT640 that infected PAO1.

Colloids can be used either as model systems for directed assembly or as the necessary building blocks for making functional materials. Previous work primarily focused on assembling colloids under a single external field, where controlling particle-particle interactions is limited. This work presents results under a combination of electric and magnetic fields.

Auxetic materials hold tremendous potential for many advanced applications, but candidates are quite scarce, especially at two dimensions. Here, we focus on two-dimensional (2D) metal dichalcogenides and dihalides with the chemical formula MX2 by screening structures sharing the P4̄m2 space group among 330 MX2 compounds from the computational 2D materials database. Via high-throughput first-principles computations, 25 stable MX2 (M = Mg, Ca, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ge, Cd, Sn; X = F, Cl, Br, I, O, S, Se) systems with in-plane negative Poisson's ratios (NPRs) are successfully identified.

The seed coat plays a pivotal role in seed development and germination, acting as a protective barrier and mediating interac-tions with the external environment. Traditional histochemical techniques and analytical methods have provided valuable insights into seed coat composition and function. However, these methods often suffer from limitations such as indirect chemical signatures and lack of spatial resolution.
