Ruthenium(II) Lipid‐Mimics Drive Lipid Phase Separation to Arouse Autophagy‐Ferroptosis Cascade for Photoimmunotherapy by Yue Zheng, Wen‐Jin Wang, Jing‐Xin Chen, Kun Peng, Xiao‐Xiao Chen, Qing‐Hua Shen, Bing‐Bing Liang, Zong‐Wan Mao, Cai‐Ping Tan

“…Among them, Ru‐LipM with two dodecyl chains significantly induces natural lipid phase separation via hydrocarbon chain‐melting phase transitions. Accompanied by the aggregation of Ru‐LipM‐labeled lipophilic membrane‐less compartments, most polyunsaturated lipids are increased and the autophagic flux is retarded with the adaptor protein sequestosome 1 (p62). …”

Magnetocaloric Effect for a <i>Q</i>-Clock-Type System by Michel Aguilera, Sergio Pino-Alarcón, Francisco J. Peña, Eugenio E. Vogel, Natalia Cortés, Patricio Vargas

“…In particular, we find the values of <i>Q</i> that maximize the MCE depending on the lattice size and the magnetic phase transitions linked with the process. Given the broader relevance of the <i>Q</i>-state clock model in areas such as percolation theory, neural networks, and biological systems, where multi-state interactions are essential, our study provides a robust framework in applied quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and related fields.…”
