Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

Engineering Antigen Density on M13 Bacteriophage for Personalized Nanovaccine

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Increasing antigen density on the phage capsid impacts phage uptake and antigen cross‐presentation by antigen‐presenting cells, leading to enhanced activation of antitumor CD8+ T cells in the draining lymph nodes. These activated CD8+ T cells subsequently recognize the antigen‐expressing tumors and mediate their specific cytotoxic killing, thereby ...

Transition transferases prime bacterial capsule polymerization

open access: yesNature Chemical Biology
AbstractCapsules are long-chain carbohydrate polymers that envelop the surfaces of many bacteria, protecting them from host immune responses. Capsule biosynthesis enzymes are potential drug targets and valuable biotechnological tools for generating vaccine antigens. Despite their importance, it remains unknown how structurally variable capsule polymers

An Antimicrobial, Cell‐Adhesive, and Growth Factor‐Producing Living Material Engineered From Bacillus subtilis Biofilms for Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacillus subtilis is engineered to produce cell‐adhesive biofilms by functionalization of its biofilm scaffold protein TasA with a cell‐adhesion sequence. Living bacteria within the biofilm are also engineered to secrete growth factors and natively produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), resulting in a cell‐adhesive, antimicrobial, and growth factor ...

A New Method for Staining Bacterial Capsules.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1932
A simple method is described by which a capsule-like structure is readily demonstrated about many bacteria. It is selectively stained pink, in contrast to the blue bacterial bodies. Use is made only of stain and fixative. No artificial steps, like preliminary treatment with serum, etc., designed to render the capsule more readily demonstrable, are ...

Bacterial Structure with Particular Reference to the Capsule

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1932
A technic has been described by which capsules can be readily demonstrated not only on “capsulated” organisms but also on certain bacteria and under certain conditions where they are supposed not to exist.1 More extensive studies have confirmed the earlier findings, one of the most significant of which was the observation that R types of pneumococcus ...
