Microphysiological Systems in Cancer Research: Advancing Immunotherapy through Tumor Microenvironment‐Integrated Organ‐On‐Chip Models

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Emerging microphysiological systems reproduce the spatial, biochemical, and cellular complexity of the tumor microenvironment, surpassing 2D cultures and murine models. By integrating patient‐derived tumors, perfusable vasculature, and immune trafficking, these organ‐on‐chip platforms reveal mechanisms of immune evasion, predict therapeutic responses ...

Adenosine monophosphate degradation and inosinic acid accumulation in the shrimp Penaeus japonicus

International Aquatic Research, 2017
Shrimp muscle contains taste component compounds, such as glutamic acid and inosinic acid (IMP). When both are present, taste intensity increases by fourfold to eightfold compared to that when only glutamic acid is present. Inosinic acid is generated via

Peptide‐Based Biomaterials as a Promising Tool for Cancer Radiotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review provides a systematic overview of peptide‐based biomaterials in tumor radiotherapy, covering their roles as both radiosensitizers and radiopharmaceuticals. Peptide‐based radiosensitizers are generally divided into three categories: peptides as direct radiosensitizers, peptides as carriers of radiosensitizers, and targeted‐peptide‐modified ...

The cGAS-STING-interferon regulatory factor 7 pathway regulates neuroinflammation in Parkinson’s disease

Neural Regeneration Research
Interferon regulatory factor 7 plays a crucial role in the innate immune response. However, whether interferon regulatory factor 7-mediated signaling contributes to Parkinson’s disease remains unknown.

Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase and inosine 5’-monophosphate dehydrogenase activities in three mammalian species: aquatic (Mirounga angustirostris), semiaquatic (Lontra longicaudis annectens) and terrestrial (Sus scrofa)

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
Aquatic and semiaquatic mammals have the capacity of breath hold (apnea) diving. Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) have the ability to perform deep and long duration dives; during a routine dive, adults can hold their breath for 25 min ...

Streptococcus suis synthesizes deoxyadenosine and adenosine by 5’-nucleotidase to dampen host immune responses

Virulence, 2018
Streptococcus suis is a major porcine bacterial pathogen and emerging zoonotic agent. S. suis 5ʹ-nucleotidase is able to convert adenosine monophosphate to adenosine, resulting in inhibiting neutrophil functions in vitro and it is an important virulence ...

Dopamine D1 Receptor Contributes to Glucocorticoid‐Associated Osteonecrosis of Femoral Head Protection Through the ATF3/CHOP Axis to Inhibit Osteoblastic Apoptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work identifies a novel mechanism by which dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) contributes to the pathogenesis of glucocorticoid (GC)‐associated osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) through the regulation of osteoblastic apoptosis, indicating that DRD1 serves as a critical mediator of the crosstalk between the nervous and skeletal systems.

A Two‐Component Pseudo‐Icosahedral Protein Nanocompartment with Variable Shell Composition and Irregular Tiling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The structure and assembly principles of a two‐component encapsulin nanocompartment shell are reported. The two‐component protein compartment self‐assembles from two distinct HK97‐fold shell proteins into a pseudo‐icosahedral protein shell with variable composition and irregular tiling.
