Researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science developed a novel superstructure liquid metal/low expansion polyimide/polydimethylsiloxane actuator, which combines rapid motion with impressive load carrying capacity-an achievement that has eluded previous actuator designs.
Researchers led by Prof. TONG Minghan from the Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, collaborating with Prof. HUANG Ying from Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, reported the successful in vitro reconstitution of meiotic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation.
A research team led by Prof. JIANG Yanyi from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science has uncovered an important mechanism that helps squamous cell carcinoma resist a form of cell death called ferroptosis.
Prof. LIU Cuihua's group at the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences revealed a pathogenic mechanism by which Mtb manipulates host lysosomal protease activity-depend plasticity between cell death pathways to promote its infection.
A Research team led by Prof. HUANG Zhenying from the Institute of Botany has discovered a remarkable survival strategy-a unique seed dormancy cycling mechanism in two desert ephemeral plants, Alyssum linifolium and Tetracme quadricornis.
A collaborative study between the Institute of Biophysics and China Agricultural University has uncovered crucial insights into kidney development, revealing the regulatory role of cell communication in establishing and maintaining kidney structure.
