Expansion–contraction of photoresponsive artificial muscle regulated by host–guest interactions

Polymer-based actuators, which deform in response to external stimuli, may advance the understanding of biological movement or realization of soft robotics. Here, Harada et al. report a photo-responsive supramolecular hydrogel that displays expansion–contraction abilities owing to host–guest interactions.

Whole-genome sequencing reveals the molecular implications of the stepwise progression of lung adenocarcinoma

Current sequencing technologies can shed light on the stepwise progression of lung adenocarcinoma. Here, the authors characterize tumor progression in lung adenocarcinomas from an early stage using short and long read whole-genome sequencing, bulk and spatial transcriptomics, and epigenomics.

Emission properties of cyclodextrin dimers linked with perylene diimide—effect of cyclodextrin tumbling

Perylene diimide (PDI) derivatives with cyclodextrins (PDI-CD₂s) exhibit specific emission properties, which depend on the type of CDs in an aqueous solution. Herein we create an emission from film kneaded PDI-CD₂s derivatives via effective tumbling of the altropyranose unit. We have observed the selective emission of PDIC₇-3βCD₂ in aqueous solutions and prepared emission films kneaded into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films. The emission depends on the cavity size of the altro-CDs formed through altro-CD tumbling.
