With the increasingly deep integration of large language models (LLMs) across diverse domains, the effectiveness of their safety mechanisms is encountering severe challenges. Currently, jailbreak attacks based on prompt engineering have become a major safety threat. However, existing methods primarily rely on black-box manipulation of prompt templates, resulting in poor interpretability and limited generalization. To break through the bottleneck, this study first introduces the concept of Defense Threshold Decay (DTD), revealing the potential safety impact caused by LLMs' benign generation: as benign content generation in LLMs increases, the model's focus on input instructions progressively diminishes. Building on this insight, we propose the Sugar-Coated Poison (SCP) attack paradigm, which uses a "semantic reversal" strategy to craft benign inputs that are opposite in meaning to malicious intent. This strategy induces the models to generate extensive benign content, thereby enabling adversarial reasoning to bypass safety mechanisms. Experiments show that SCP outperforms existing baselines. Remarkably, it achieves an average attack success rate of 87.23% across six LLMs. For defens
A new experimental treatment may have found a way to outsmart glioblastoma’s toughest defense: the blood-brain barrier。 Researchers used sugar-coated nanoparticles to ferry genetic instructions that restore a key tumor-suppressing protein directly into brain cancer cells。 In mouse studies, the therapy increased median survival by 50% while shrinkin
Through a combination of experiments and modeling, we have demonstrated a novel pattern formation phenomenon in an isothermal miscible fluid system involving simple protein and sugar solutions. We introduced dye-tagged protein solution into a petri dish with sugar solutions, which had higher density than the added protein solution. Initially, the protein spread and became more uniformly distributed at the air-water interface. Subsequently, it concentrated in specific areas to form spiral patterns. We propose that the mechanism involves an interplay between Marangoni effects, evaporation, and airflow. This finding is unexpected as solute Marangoni-related processes are generally characterized by fast spreading (seconds), while the pattern formation in our systems takes several minutes to form. Our work suggests that Turing reaction-diffusion patterns can be replicated by replacing the reaction-induced inhomogeneous solute distribution by evaporation-induced inhomogeneity. In both cases, the fast diffusive or Marangoni spreading of the solute is counteracted by a slower step that serves to reverse the solute homogenization. In showing that dissipative patterns can form in the absence
Polyelectrolyte brushes consist of a set of charged linear macromolecules each tethered at one end to a surface. An example is the glycocalyx which refers to hair-like negatively charged sugar molecules that coat the outside membrane of all cells. We consider the transport and equilibrium distribution of ions, and the resulting electrical potential, when such a brush is immersed in a salt buffer containing monovalent cations (sodium and/or potassium). The Gouy-Chapman model for ion screening at a charged surface captures the effects of the Coulombic force that drives ion electrophoresis and diffusion, but neglects non-Coulombic forces and ion pairing. By including the distinct binding affinities of these counter-ions with the brush, and their so-called Born radii, which account for Born forces acting on them when the permittivity is non-uniform, we propose modified Poisson-Nernst-Planck continuum models that show the distinct profiles that may result depending on those ion-specific properties.
