Cancer cells possess distinct bioelectrical properties, yet therapies leveraging these characteristics remain underexplored. Herein, we introduce an innovative nanobioelectronic system combining a piezoelectric barium titanate nanoparticle core with a conducting poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) shell (BTO@PEDOT NPs), designed to modulate cancer cell bioelectricity through noninvasive, wireless stimulation. Our hypothesis is that acting as nanoantennas, BTO@PEDOT NPs convert mechanical inputs provided by ultrasound (US) into electrical signals, capable of interfering with the bioelectronic circuitry of two human breast cancer cell lines, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231.

Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic, progressive condition where the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. In addition to the daily challenges that HF poses, acute exacerbations can lead to costly hospitalizations and increased mortality. High health care costs and the burden of HF have led to the emerging application of new technologies to support people living with HF to stay well while living in the community.

Cellular senescence is a key promoter of tumorigenesis and malignant progression. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for assessing cellular senescence in gastric cancer (GC) outcomes. We identified senescence-related genes and lncRNAs from 375 stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) patients and established a prognostic senescence score using multivariate Cox regression, validated in testing, TCGA-STAD and the combined TCGA-COAD and READ cohorts.

Load bearing/energy storage integrated devices (LEIDs) featuring cementitious electrolytes have become ideal for large-scale energy storage. Nevertheless, the progression of LEIDs is still in its nascent phase and considerable endeavors concerning cementitious electrolytes and electrode materials are necessary to further boost the charge storage ability. Here, we propose a facile synchronous reaction method for preparing sodium acrylate (SA)-based in-situ polymerized cementitious electrolyte.

20% acute pancreatitis (AP) develops into severe AP (SAP), a global health crisis, with an increased mortality rate to 30%-50%. Mitochondrial damage and immune disorders are direct factors, which exacerbate the occurrence and progression of AP. So far, mitochondrial and immunity injury in SAP remains largely elusive, with no established treatment options available.
