Why zirconia implants may integrate with bone less effectively than titanium: single-cell profiling reveals an early immune mechanism

Research
Peer-Reviewed Publication

Zirconia is widely regarded as a promising alternative to titanium for bone and dental implants because of its aesthetic advantages, biocompatibility, and potential to reduce metal ion release. Yet zirconia implants often integrate with bone less effectively than titanium. A new research article published in Research helps explain this gap by mapping the early immune microenvironment at the bone–implant interface using single-cell RNA sequencing.

A dual metabolic strike: Copper-based nano-PROTACs strengthen cuproptosis cancer therapy

Research
Peer-Reviewed Publication

What happens if cancer cells lose both their mitochondrial energy supply and their glycolytic backup system? This question is central to a new study published in Research by researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University and collaborating institutions. The work addresses a key limitation of cuproptosis-based cancer therapy: copper-dependent mitochondrial stress can kill cancer cells, but many tumors are metabolically flexible and rely heavily on aerobic glycolysis to survive mitochondrial damage. The study proposes a way to block both routes at once.

A dynamic molecular sunscreen for perovskite solar cells

Research
Peer-Reviewed Publication

In a new study published in Research, researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University and collaborating institutions report a molecular strategy that addresses this problem from within the perovskite layer rather than simply blocking UV light from outside.
