Ultrashort pulse laser, capable of varying pulse duration between 210 fs and 10 ps and producing a burst of pulses with an intra-burst pulse repetition rate of 64.5 MHz (time distance between pulses 15.5 ns), was used to investigate the ablation efficiency of the copper. The study on ablation efficiency was done for various numbers of pulses per burst between 1 and 40. The increase in the ablation efficiency by 20% for 3 pulses per burst compared to a non-burst regime was observed. The comparison was made between the beam-size optimised regimes. Therefore, the real advantage of the burst regime was demonstrated. To the best of our knowledge, we report the highest laser milling ablation efficiency of copper of 4.84 µm/µJ by ultrashort pulses at ~1 µm optical wavelength.

After a peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system, convert into repair cells that foster axonal regrowth, and then remyelinate or re-ensheath regenerated axons, thereby ensuring functional recovery. The efficiency of this mechanism depends however on the time needed for axons to regrow. Here, we show that ablation of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) in SCs accelerates the regrowth of sensory axons and sensory function recovery.

Data-Oriented Octree Inverse Hierarchical Order Aggregation Hybrid Transformer-CNN for 3D Medical Segmentation.

J Imaging Inform Med

January 2025

Mechanical Engineering Department, Tianjin University, No. 135, Yaguan Road, Haihe Education Park, Jinnan District, Tianjin City, 300350, China.

The hybrid CNN-transformer structures harness the global contextualization of transformers with the local feature acuity of CNNs, propelling medical image segmentation to the next level. However, the majority of research has focused on the design and composition of hybrid structures, neglecting the data structure, which enhance segmentation performance, optimize resource efficiency, and bolster model generalization and interpretability. In this work, we propose a data-oriented octree inverse hierarchical order aggregation hybrid transformer-CNN (nnU-OctTN), which focuses on delving deeply into the data itself to identify and harness potential.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a powerful strategy for tumor therapy with noninvasiveness and desirable efficacy. However, the phototoxicity of photosensitizer after the post-PDT is the major obstacle limiting the clinic applications. Herein, a nitric oxide (NO)-activatable photosensitizer is reported with turn-on PDT behavior and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) targeting ability for precise tumor therapy.
