1. IntroductionBicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV) is a congenital heart valve disease where the aortic valve has two leaflets instead of the normal three. BAV is one of the most common types of congenital heart disease in adults, with a prevalence of approximately 0.5% - 2% in the population [1]. BAV is often associated with aortic valve stenosis or insufficiency, as well as aortic dilation and aortic dissection [1] [2].

AbstractOptical properties of cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) can be tuned by an external field, however, it will spontaneously restore to the original state after the field is removed. Here, we introduce diselenide dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) into CLCEs, whose optical properties can be reversibly and precisely tuned under the combined action of force and light. The tuned optical properties will be written into and remembered by the CLCEs, thus a programming effect is achieved.

AbstractDesigning highly efficient orally administrated nanotherapeutics with specific inflammatory site–targeting functions in the gastrointestinal tract for ulcerative colitis (UC) management is a noteworthy challenge. Here, we focused on exploring a specific targeting oral nanotherapy, serving as “one stone,” for the directed localization of inflammation and the regulation of redox homeostasis, thereby achieving effects against “two birds” for UC treatment.
