Modelling mouse embryogenesis from chemically induced totipotent stem cells
Abstract The ability to faithfully initiate embryogenesis from a single, induced non-germline cell type, akin to the totipotent blastomeres, remains a considerable challenge in developmental and synthetic biology1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14.
Atomically thin amorphous carbon with an ultralow dielectric constant
|
Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials could replace conventional electronic components. Key advances have already been made in applying 2D materials to integrated circuits, but a robust, atomically thin ultralow-k dielectric remains crucial for further circuit scaling. Minimizing parasitic capacitances, in particular, will be needed as conductor spacing shrinks below 10 nm. However, conventional amorphous or porous low-k dielectrics become unstable at nanometre thicknesses.

Association between trouble sleeping and cataract in US adults: a cross-sectional study
Abstract Objective: To investigate the association between trouble sleeping and cataract in US adults, given the increasing global burden of cataracts and the high prevalence of sleep problems. Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from 2,601 adults aged ≥40 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2005–2008). Trouble sleeping was assessed through self-reported diagnosis, and cataract status was determined by self-reported history of cataract operation.

Thermal cycling transcription boosts RNA production.
Abstract Efficient RNA production is essential for therapeutic applications. Currently, mRNA is generated by in vitro transcription with RNA polymerases at a constant temperature. The success of these transcriptions depends on various factors including sequence composition and size. Sometimes, especially for long RNAs, achieving efficient transcript yields are challenging. We developed a novel approach by incorporating a high-temperature denaturation step.

Challenges remain for 2D semiconductor growth - Nature Nanotechnology
The primary hurdle in commercializing these materials is the difficulty in producing their large wafer-scale forms, which may not necessarily be single crystalline. Researchers have the flexibility to choose a fabrication process for TMDs, whether single-crystalline or polycrystalline, based on the needs of the application and cost factors. Significant advancements have been achieved recently using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) techniques.

Interfacial design towards stable zinc metal-free zinc-ion batteries with high energy density Zinc metal-free zinc-ion batteries hold promise for achieving higher energy densities by eliminating the need for dense zinc foil as the anode. However, the direct use of substrates like copper foil in these batteries results in poor cyclic stability due to dendrite growth.

The Structural Evolution of CL-20-based Energetic Host-guest Solvates at Decomposition Temperatures Monitoring by the Perceptions of THz Spectroscopy
The Structural Evolution of CL-20-based Energetic Host-guest Solvates at Decomposition Temperatures Monitoring by the Perceptions of THz Spectroscopy Energetic host-guest solvates provide a balanced way to expand high explosives CL-20 because of their unique physicochemical integration mode. CL-20/ hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) energetic solvates maintained the detonation performance by combining H2O2 molecules into a lattice akin to hydrate CL-20/H2O solvates (α-CL-20).
Intramolecular aptamer switches
Intramolecular aptamer switches Aptamer switches as effective biosensing tools have become a focal point of research in engineered aptasensors. Intramolecular aptamer switches are more versatile, affordable, and simpler than classical “open-close” and strand-displacement-based aptamer switches. Recently, many new aptamers with an overall hairpin structure were reported. In this study, intramolecular aptamer switches were developed by introducing new base pairs to the end of aptamers.
