Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq Reveal TREM2's Function in Monocyte Infiltration and Macrophage Apoptosis During Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A method is developed for conducting genome‐wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening of monocyte infiltration in vivo (CRISPR‐MI) that is easily adaptable across a variety of disease models. Through the combination of CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq, this study discovers that Trem2 is a key regulator of early monocyte infiltration in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA ...

Realgar‐Induced CNS Toxicity: Exploring OTC‐Mediated Ornithine Regulation of ZBTB7A Inhibits Astrocyte Glycolysis Based on the Liver–Brain Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Arsenic in realgar induces CNS toxicity through direct and indirect effects: it activates ZBTB7A in astrocytes, which in turn inhibits glycolysis and impairs mice's learning, memory, and exploration; it also suppresses OTC in the liver to block the ornithine cycle, leading to blood ornithine accumulation that crosses into the frontal lobe and further ...
