Nov 20, 2025Scientists Reveals "Source-Sink" Mechanisms and Ecological Drivers of Carbon Sequestration in the Greater Bay AreaA "scientific diagnosis report" on the estuarine carbon cycle. The coastal ecosystems of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) faces pressure from high-intensity anthropogenic activities, making the high-resolution scientific assessment of its c... -
Nov 18, 2025Scientists Identify a Key Neuron-Derived Driver of Neurovascular Injury After StrokeThis work has uncovered a previously unknown neuronal signalling mechanism that amplifies brain injury after ischaemic stroke. For ischaemic stroke patients, although revascularisation therapies such as intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy restore blood flow, many of them still experience secondary haemorrh... -
Nov 17, 2025Researchers develop a multi-modal vision-language model for generalizable annotation-free pathology localizationThis work developed a generalizable vision-language model for Annotation-Free pathology Loclization (AFLoc), which demonstrates superior performance in localizing pathologies and supporting diagnos... Accurate localization of pathologies in medical images is crucial for precise diagnosis and effective treatment. While deep learning has greatly advanced medical image analysis, most existing model... -
Nov 17, 2025Target binding of black phosphorus nanomaterial to polo-like kinase 1 for cancer chemotherapy: a mutual selection of nanomaterial and proteinThis work uncovered how black phosphorus nanomaterials (BPNMs) recognize and bind a key cell cycle regulator, polo like kinase 1 (PLK1). Understanding how nanomaterials interact with biological macromolecules is essential for advancing nanomedicine. Over the past two decades, the "protein corona" concept has guided research into nan... -
Nov 17, 2025Whole-Body PET/CT Study Maps Inter-Organ Metabolic Networks Across the Glycemic SpectrumThis research uncovered how metabolic coordination among major organs shifts across normal glycemia, prediabetes, and diabetes. Diabetes is now understood to be a systemic metabolic disorder, involving disruptions across multiple organs rather than a single glycemic pathway. Yet, in clinical practice, metabolic health is st... -
Nov 12, 2025Researchers Uncover the Mechanism of Plasma Membrane Remodeling that Drives Mitotic Cell RoundingResearchers uncovered a fundamental plasma membrane remodeling mechanism that governs the mitotic cell rounding. During cell division, adherent animal cells round up to create the precise spatial geometry required for accurate chromosome segregation, a process that depends on the coordinated remodeling of the... -
Nov 04, 2025New Cell-scale Method Reconstructs Whole-brain Fiber Tracts from Routine HistologyThis work published in Nature Methods, offers a practical route to high-precision, high-throughput connectome mapping with potential applications in psychiatry and epilepsy. In a study published in Nature Methods on November 3, researchers from Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the Center for Excellence in Brain Scie... -
Oct 23, 2025Researchers Reveal Mystery of Neurotransmission with Time-resolved Cryo-ETThis study offers a fresh perspective on neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, and related brain functions and diseases. In a study published in Science on October 17, a team led by Prof. BI Guoqiang from the University of Science and Technology of China/Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Acad...
