Multiple Genetic Shifts at the Crossroads of the Eastern Steppe and Loess Plateau Over 4,000 Years

Ningxia was located at a crossroads between the Eurasian Steppe and East Asia. Here, the authors sequence 89 ancient individuals to reconstructs 4,000 years of genetic history in this region.

Fibromodulin selectively accelerates myofibroblast apoptosis in cutaneous wounds by enhancing interleukin 1β signaling

The persistence of myofibroblasts after wound healing is ultimately responsible for scarring. Here, the authors show that fibromodulin enhances interleukin 1β ternary complex formation, promoting myofibroblast apoptosis and providing a potential strategy to mitigate scarring.

Determinants and inequities in healthy working life expectancy in China

Large-scale longitudinal analyses reveal considerable inequities in healthy working life expectancy (the average number of years spent healthy and in work from age 50 years) across Chinese populations by gender, occupation and region.

Giant room temperature electrocaloric effect in a layered hybrid perovskite ferroelectric: [(CH₃)₂CHCH₂NH₃]₂PbCl₄

Most known electrocaloric materials show relatively poor cooling performance near room temperature, hindering their applications. Here, the authors achieve large electrocaloric effect near room temperature in a hybrid perovskite ferroelectric, useful for high-performance solid-state refrigeration.

Large-scale data reveal disparate associations between leisure time physical activity patterns and mental health

Zhou et al. analyze leisure time physical activity and self-reported mental health in people of different ages in China. Exercise is associated with better mental health, even if exercise is of moderate intensity.
