A microenvironment self‐adaptive nanoarmor is developed to effectively address the adhesion‐ and colonization‐related challenges posed by multiple physiological and pathological characteristics in the intestine. L. plantarum@MPN@CS showed significant therapeutic potential in treating Parkinson's disease (PD), a model for extraintestinal disorders, as ...

The role of cholestasis in brain hippocampus trauma in male Wistar rat
In cholestasis syndrome, the change of bile acids, salts, endotoxins and opioidsis is accompanied with hepaticencephalopathy and brain trauma; therefore, in this study, the histopathological changes of hippocampus after bile duct ligation were ...

Bile acid fitness determinants of a Bacteroides fragilis isolate from a human pouchitis patient
Bacteroides fragilis comprises 1%–5% of the gut microbiota in healthy humans but can expand to >50% of the population in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients experiencing inflammation.

This study successfully engineered vascularized liver organoids (3HLOs) by co‐culturing human reprogrammed hepatocyte‐like cells (hrHLs) with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs). Upon implantation, the 3HLOs established functional vascular anastomosis with the host circulation and ...

Nuclear Factor I‐B Delays Liver Fibrosis by Inhibiting Chemokine Ligand 5 Transcription
This study identifies the transcription factor Nuclear Factor I‐B (NFIB) as a key suppressor of liver fibrosis. NFIB expression declines during hepatic stellate cell activation, and its overexpression reduces fibrosis in mice models. The mechanism involves NFIB directly repressing chemokine C─C motif ligand 5 (CCL5), thereby alleviating oxidative ...

KRAS Withdrawal in Cholangiocarcinoma Leads to Immune Infiltration and Tumor Regression
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) driven by oncogenic KRAS depends on its continuous activation for tumor maintenance. Using a conditional KRAS model, the authors show that turning off KRAS triggers rapid tumor regression accompanied by immune cell infiltration and cytokine release. The findings uncover a KRAS–senescence–immune signaling axis and highlight KRAS
