Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.

Adenylation Domain Engineering Enables Biosynthesis of an Improved Polymyxin Antibiotic
To enable incorporation of l‐2‐aminodecanoic acid into polymyxin by fermentation, a single Trp‐to‐Ala substitution is rationally introduced into the adenylation‐domain residue of its nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) and efficiently switches substrate selectivity. The engineered strain produces biologically active Ada‐polymyxin, demonstrating that

Modified Titanium Dental Implants: The Current Progress of Soft‐Tissue Integration Methods
Dental implants are an established solution for tooth loss, yet achieving soft tissue integration (STI) around the transmucosal region remains a challenge. The natural tooth–gingiva interface is poorly replicated on titanium implants. This review explores surface modification strategies, ranging from surface chemistry and topography to biological ...

Beyond the green solvent paradigm, this review redefines Deep Eutectic Systems (DES) as programmable supramolecular nanoassemblies. We survey their biomedical convergence: stabilizing thermolabile mRNA to enable cold chain‐free logistics, reshaping transdermal microneedle delivery, enabling long‐term wearables via eutectogels, and utilizing Generative ...

Towards the development of antimicrobial peptides active against bacterial biofilms
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are rapidly emerging, and the number of available therapeutic options to fight them is decreasing. In addition, as a surviving strategy, bacteria can aggregate and form biofilms, a multicellular community embedded in a self ...
