Bioremediation offers a sustainable strategy for mitigating heavy metal contamination in soil, but is often constrained by slow removal kinetics, limited uptake efficiency, and high implementation costs. This study investigates dried mycelium membranes, rich in surface-bound proteins and high surface area, as a promising biosorbent for in situ Pb(II) remediation in urban soils. Untreated mycelium membranes buried in soil achieved Pb(II) removal efficiencies of ∼70 % and ∼40 % at initial lead soil concentrations of 100 mg/kg and 1500 mg/kg, respectively, within eight days.

High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) provides genome-wide insights into chromatin interactions within the three-dimensional structure of the nucleus, making it a powerful tool for studying genome architecture. Here, we provide a modified in situ Hi-C protocol for small cell numbers, utilizing 50-100 embryonic cells at the 8-cell stage to investigate chromatin organization during bovine early embryonic development. This protocol overcomes the challenges of limited sample availability and offers valuable insights into chromatin dynamics during bovine early embryogenesis.

Organic mixed ionic-electronic conducting polymers remain at the forefront of materials development for bioelectronic device applications. During electrochemical operation, structural dynamics and variations in electrostatic interactions in the polymer occur, which affect dual transport of the ions and electronic charge carriers. Such effects remain unclear due to a lack of spectroscopic methods capable of capturing these dynamics, which hinders the rational design of higher-performance polymers.

The effectiveness of antitumor immunotherapy is limited to immune cell infiltration into solid tumors, primarily via T-cell migration through tumor blood vessels. This study introduces a multifunctional nitric oxide (NO)-driven hollow gold Janus nanomotor (HAM) designed to promote tumor blood vessel normalization and increase T-cell infiltration, thereby enhancing the immune response against tumors. It is revealed that self-generated NO facilitates the penetration of HAM into tumors and increases pericyte coverage of blood vessels, thereby enhancing intratumoral T-cell infiltration.

Silicon carbide nanowires (SiC NWs) combine the benefits of bulk SiC materials with the properties of low-dimensional nanomaterials. They are known for their excellent mechanical strength and durability, which are critical for their potential applications in high-stress environments and micro-nano functional systems. Here, the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of 2H-SiC NWs with rare defects in the [0001] orientation are reported.
