Electronically configurable microscopic metasheet robots

Shape transformations in microrobots less than 1 mm in size remain challenging. Here the authors present an electronically configurable metasheet microrobot with reprogrammable shapes and locomotory gaits in an electrolytic solution.

Tripartite motif containing 26 prevents steatohepatitis progression by suppressing C/EBPδ signalling activation

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a heterogeneous disease with complicated pathogenesis. Here the authors identify that the E3 ligase TRIM26 confers protection against NASH development via suppression of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein delta (C/EBPδ).

TREM1 disrupts myeloid bioenergetics and cognitive function in aging and Alzheimer disease mouse models

The role of TREM1 in neurodegenerative diseases is unclear. Here the authors show that TREM1 promotes cognitive decline in aging and in the context of amyloid pathology in a mouse model of Alzheimer disease.

Overcoming strength-ductility tradeoff with high pressure thermal treatment

Conventional material processing methods often suffer by strength-ductility trade-off. Here, the authors show high-pressure and high-temperature treatment can transform an eutectic high entropy alloy to having a hierarchical microstructure with simultaneous enhancements of strength and ductility.

Peripheral TREM1 responses to brain and intestinal immunogens amplify stroke severity

Cerebral ischemia activates innate immune responses in injured brain lesions. Andreasson and colleagues show TREM1 is upregulated after stroke and amplifies these proinflammatory responses by peripheral CD11b⁺ myeloid cells in both the ischemic brain and distally in the intestine.

Highly transparent silanized cellulose aerogels for boosting energy efficiency of glazing in buildings

Windows are one of the least energy efficient parts of the building envelope because of poor thermal insulation. Abraham et al. develop a cellulose-based aerogel as a thermal barrier for windows that retains their optical properties.

Self-assembled nematic colloidal motors powered by light

Biological motors which convert energy into mechanical work inspire the fabrication of synthetic motors. Here the authors demonstrate self-assembled colloidal motors which are driven to a range of responses controlled by the feedback between light polarization and deformation of a liquid crystal.

Elastic colloidal monopoles and reconfigurable self-assembly in liquid crystals

Unstructured light controls the elastic monopole moments of nematic liquid-crystal colloidal particles and switches them to quadrupoles, with like-charged monopoles attracting and oppositely charged ones repelling, enabling reconfigurable dynamic self-assembly.
