Abstract
Honeycomb (HC) composites were fabricated by impregnating an aramid paper HC core with carbon nanotubes/carbon black/reduced graphene oxide (CNTs/CB/RGO) and polyurethane resin (PU). The sandwich HC (SHC) absorber containing HC composites with superior microwave-absorption properties were fabricated using the vacuum bagging method. Through the absorption performance of the SHC absorber, it can be concluded that the triple-layer SHC absorber has the best absorbing performance. The effective bandwidth (reflection loss < 10 dB) can be achieved in the entire frequency range of 2.2−18 GHz, and the minimum RL value is −35 dB. Furthermore, the compressive stress of the triple-layer SHC absorber reached 3.71 MPa, which is similar to the compressive stress of aluminum HC panels for aviation. Benefiting from the excellent integration of absorption and mechanical performance, the SHC has significant potential in the stealth-technology field.

Abstract
Osteoclastogenesis in alveolar bone induced by compression stress triggers orthodontic tooth movement. Compression stress also stimulates angiogenesis, which is essential for osteoclastogenesis. However, the effects of osteoclastogenesis induced by compression on angiogenesis are poorly understood. In vivo, we found the markers of angiogenesis increased during orthodontic bone remodeling. In vitro, osteoclast-derived exosomes increased proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), as well as expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and CD31. The promotive effects of exosomes derived from compressed osteoclasts were greater than those derived from osteoclasts without compression. Next, we analyzed changes in the microRNA transcriptome after compression stress and focused on microRNA146a-5p (miR-146a), which was significantly decreased by compression. Transfection of an inhibitor of miR-146a stimulated angiogenesis of HUVECs while miR-146a mimics repressed angiogenesis. Adiponectin (ADP) was confirmed to be a target of miR-146a by dual luciferase reporter assay. In HUVECs treated with exosomes, we detected increased ADP which promoted angiogenesis. Knockdown of ADP in HUVECs reduced the promotive effects of exosomes. Our results demonstrate that the decreased miR-146a observed in osteoclasts after compression promotes angiogenesis by targeting ADP, suggesting a novel method to interfere with bone remodeling induced by compression stress.

Abstract
Objectives Inappropriate or excessive compression applied to intervertebral disc (IVD) contributes substantially to IVD degeneration. The actomyosin system plays a leading role in responding to mechanical stimuli. In the present study, we investigated the roles of myosin II isoforms in the compression stress‐induced senescence of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. Material and methods Nucleus pulposus cells were exposed to 1.0 MPa compression for 0, 12, 24 or 36 hours. Immunofluorescence and co‐immunoprecipitation analysis were used to measure the interaction of myosin IIA and IIB with actin. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect nuclear expression and nuclear localization of MRTF‐A. In addition, the expression levels of p‐RhoA/RhoA, ROCK1/2 and p‐MLC/MLC were measured in human NP cells under compression stress and in degenerative IVD tissues. Results Compression stress increased the interaction of myosin IIA and actin, while the interaction of myosin IIB and actin was reduced. The actomyosin cytoskeleton remodelling was involved in the compression stress‐induced fibrotic phenotype mediated by MRTF‐A nuclear translocation and inhibition of proliferation in NP cells. Furthermore, RhoA/ROCK1 pathway activation mediated compression stress‐induced human NP cells senescence by regulating the interaction of myosin IIA and IIB with actin. Conclusions We for the first time investigated the regulation of actomyosin cytoskeleton in human NP cells under compression stress. It provided new insights into the development of therapy for effectively inhibiting IVD degeneration.
