文摘Cancer is the most common cause of human mortality and has created an unbridgeable health gap due to its unrestrained aberrant proliferation,rapid growth,metastasis,and high heterogeneity.Conventional two-dimensional cell culture and animal models for tumor diagnostic and therapeutic studies have extremely low clinical translation rates due to their intrinsic limitations.Appropriate tumor models are therefore required for cancer research.Engineered human three-dimensional(3D)cancer models stand out for their ability to better replicate the spatial organization,cellular resources,and microenvironmental features(e.g.,hypoxia,necrosis,and delayed proliferation)of actual human tumors.Further,the fabrication of these models can be achieved by an emerging technology known as 3D bioprinting,which allows for the fabrication of living structures by precisely regulating the spatial distribution of cells,biomolecules,and matrix components.The aim of this paper is to review the current technologies and bioinks associated with 3D bioprinted cancer models for glioma,breast,liver,intestinal,cervical,ovarian,and neuroblastoma,as well as,advances in the applications of 3D bioprinted-based tumor models in the fields of tumor microenvironment,tumor vascularization,tumor stem cells,tumor resistance and therapeutic drug screening,tumorimmunotherapy,and precision medicine.

文摘Various mobile devices and applications are now used in daily life.These devices require high-speed data processing,low energy consumption,low communication latency,and secure data transmission,especially in 5G and 6G mobile networks.High-security cryptography guarantees that essential data can be transmitted securely;however,it increases energy consumption and reduces data processing speed.Therefore,this study proposes a low-energy data encryption(LEDE)algorithm based on the Advanced Encryption Standard(AES)for improving data transmission security and reducing the energy consumption of encryption in Internet-of-Things(IoT)devices.In the proposed LEDE algorithm,the system time parameter is employed to create a dynamic S-Box to replace the static S-Box of AES.Tests indicated that six-round LEDE encryption achieves the same security level as 10-round conventional AES encryption.This reduction in encryption time results in the LEDE algorithm having a 67.4%lower energy consumption and 43.9%shorter encryption time than conventional AES;thus,the proposed LEDE algorithm can improve the performance and the energy consumption of IoT edge devices.

文摘Transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs)are a promising class of layered materials in the post-graphene era,with extensive research attention due to their diverse alternative elements and fascinating semiconductor behavior.Binary MX2 layers with different metal and/or chalcogen elements have similar structural parameters but varied optoelectronic properties,providing opportunities for atomically substitutional engineering via partial alteration of metal or/and chalcogenide atoms to produce ternary or quaternary TMDs.The resulting multinary TMD layers still maintain structural integrity and homogeneity while achieving tunable(opto)electronic properties across a full range of composition with arbitrary ratios of introduced metal or chalcogen to original counterparts(0–100%).Atomic substitution in TMD layers offers new adjustable degrees of freedom for tailoring crystal phase,band alignment/structure,carrier density,and surface reactive activity,enabling novel and promising applications.This review comprehensively elaborates on atomically substitutional engineering in TMD layers,including theoretical foundations,synthetic strategies,tailored properties,and superior applications.The emerging type of ternary TMDs,Janus TMDs,is presented specifically to highlight their typical compounds,fabrication methods,and potential applications.Finally,opportunities and challenges for further development of multinary TMDs are envisioned to expedite the evolution of this pivotal field.
