Homeostasis of Gut Microbiota Protects against Susceptibility to Fungal Pneumonia
Fungal pneumonia induces inflammation, shown by heightened IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α levels and a growth in Staphylococcus in the alveolar flora. The gut microbiota, acting through the gut‐lung axis via blood, impacts fungal pneumonia susceptibility by altering lung metabolism and inflammatory responses.

Inhibition of RNase to Attenuate Fungal‐Manipulated Rhizosphere Microbiome and Diseases
Fusarium graminearum uses its virulence effector Fg12, a fungal RNase, to manipulate the host rhizosphere microbiome and promote infection. Guanosine monophosphate (GMP) blocks Fg12's RNase activity. This reveals a key pathogen‐microbiota interaction mechanism and proposes GMP as a targeted strategy to disarm this core fungal effector, offering a ...

Microwave‐Activated Bacterial Biorobot for Multimodal Cancer Therapy
An Escherichia coli bacterial biorobot is engineered for localized microwave activation in cancer therapy. Upon activation at tumor sites, the biorobot releases glucose oxidase, inducing tumor cell death via glucose depletion and H2O2 generation catalyzed by Cu2O.

Deoxynivalenol Exposure Leads to Abnormal Renal Tubular Autophagy Flow
DON exposure disrupts the initiation of renal autophagy by inhibiting the formation of autophagosomes, thereby impairing mitochondrial degradation. Damaged mitochondria increase oxidative stress, reduce ferroptosis resistance, and cause lysosomal Fe2⁺ accumulation, further disrupting autophagy.
