Nature has been inspiring scientists to fabricate impact protective materials for applications in various aspects. However, it is still challenging integrate flexible, stiffness-changeable, and properties into a single polymer, although these merits are of great interest many burgeoning areas. Herein, we report an impact-protective supramolecular polymeric material (SPM) with unique impact-hardening reversible stiffness-switching characteristics by mimicking sea cucumber dermis. The...
Although PTEN/Akt signaling is frequently deregulated in human gastric cancers, the vivo causal link between its dysregulation and tumorigenesis has not been established. Here we show that inactivation of PTEN mouse epithelium initiates spontaneous carcinogenesis with complete penetrance by 2 months age. Mechanistically, activation Akt suppresses abundance p53, leading to decreased transcription miR-365, thus causing upregulation cyclin D1 cdc25A, which promotes cell proliferation....
