The mechanical properties and physical confinement of the extracellular matrix (ECM) are crucial roles in regulating tumor growth and progression. Extensive efforts have been dedicated to replicating the physical characteristics of tumor tissue by developing two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) models. However, it remains a significant challenge to modulate the local microenvironment around the specific cells according to the culture progress.

Plant pollination by insects represents one of the most transformative and iconic ecological relationships in the natural world. Despite tens of thousands of papers, as well as numerous books, on pollination biology published over the past 200 years, most studies focused on the fossil record of pollinating insects have only been published in the last few decades, and this field is still undergoing major developments. Current palaeontological evidence indicates that pollinating insects were diverse and participated in the reproduction of different gymnosperm lineages long before their association with flowering plants (angiosperms).

Over the last two decades, molecular biology advances have revealed the gut microbiota's active and crucial role in colorectal cancer (CRC) pathogenesis and its dysregulation during tumorigenesis. This understanding has underscored the urgency of exploring novel therapeutic approaches to address the challenges posed by CRC. Among these approaches, nanosynergistic therapies, with their potential to modulate the gut microbiota, increase drug bioavailability and stability, and reduce side effects, have emerged as a promising avenue.

Today, water quality monitoring is crucial due to the health and environmental consequences of water pollution. Recently, various attempts have been made to construct rapid, sensitive, and selective heavy metal ion sensors. Fluorescent sensors are popular owing to their high specificity, sensitivity, and reversibility.
