Microphysiological Uremia Model Reveals Biophysical Potentiators of Vascular Dysfunction
A microfluidic platform of engineered blood vessels is developed to study the role of mechanical forces in immune cell adhesion and extravasation in uremic microenvironments. Elevated pressure increases monocyte activity, with ICAM‐1 as a key driver. Matrix density influences monocyte phenotypes, but the uremic environment consistently promoted a pro ...

Small RNA Toxin‐Assisted Evolution of GC‐Preferred ErCas12a for Enhanced Genome Targeting Range
ErCas12a is engineered to target GC‐rich PAMs using a small RNA toxin‐aided positive screening system. The resulting variant, enErCas12a, exhibits an expanded PAM profile and facilitates efficient gene editing in both bacterial and mammalian cells, while preserving high targeting specificity for both canonical and non‐canonical PAM targets.

The Semaphorin 3E (Sema3E)‐Plexin‐D1 pathway mediated by C/EBPα and C/EBPβ downstream of the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge plays important roles in the mouse preovulatory ovary. Timely activation and suppression of this pathway during the preovulatory stage are crucial for ovulation, corpus luteum formation, and proper angiogenesis.

In this study, a novel mechanism is unveiled by which ADD1, acting as a molecular switch, coordinates actin branch dynamics and the transport of endocytic viruses and cargoes. Phosphorylation of ADD1 at Ser726 reduces actin branch density, enhancing endosome fusion and attachment to microtubules.

GbSER02 with a single base change (SNP517G) encodes normal serpin protein and interacts with transcription factor VOZ1 to alleviate the repression of VOZ1 on GA3ox1 and promote GA3 biosynthesis. Further, GA3 induces the expression of cell wall loosening‐related genes and decreases flavonoid content, ultimately facilitating fiber cell elongation in ...

Tracing and Capturing the Epiblast Pluripotency of Sheep Preimplantation Embryos
This study performs a comprehensive single‐cell transcriptome analysis of sheep embryos from embryonic (E) day 1 to E14 to elucidate the mechanism of early lineage specification and the pluripotency changes (naïve, formative, and primed) of epiblast.

Nanopriming enhances plant resilience to environmental challenges; however, its effectiveness across diverse genetic backgrounds, including genetic modifications and natural variations, remains uncertain. These findings demonstrate that nanopriming improves efficacy when natural genetic variations are considered, particularly in genetically modified ...

A Phase‐Separated SR Protein Reprograms Host Pre‐mRNA Splicing to Enhance Disease Susceptibility
This study identifies SR30, a splicing factor, as a negative regulator of tomato immunity. During Phytophthora infestans infection, the elevated SR30 forms nuclear condensates to suppress the alternative splicing (AS) of defense‐related genes in a phase separation manner.

Wound infections induce gcFGF8a expression, which subsequently executes direct antimicrobial activity to suppress local infection while simultaneously activating the FGFR4‐mediated ERK/AKT‐mTOR signaling cascade, thereby upregulating HIF1α and enhancing glycolysis. These coordinated actions synergistically promote tissue repair by eliminating pathogens
