Bacteria Optimize Tumble Bias to Strategically Navigate Surface Constraints
The study investigates how Escherichia coli optimizes tumble bias (TB) to navigate surface constraints effectively. Using single‐cell tracking and modeling, it reveals that bacterial surface residence time decreases with increasing TB, stabilizing near the wild‐type mean TB (≈0.25), where surface diffusivity peaks.

The work constructs a glucose‐triggered gel for diabetic abscess treatment. The results demonstrate that the gel catalyzes glucose into oxygen, alleviates the hypoxia, and ensures sufficient ROS generation to combat pathogenic bacteria. Simultaneously, borneol within the gel can enhance the antibacterial activity of ROS and alleviate pain in patients ...

The Multitarget Compound ZLY032 Achieves Treatment of Chronic Wounds
ZLY032, a dual free fatty acid receptor 1/peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor δ agonist, accelerates wound healing in normal/diabetic/methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus‐infected models by promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammation, and exhibiting antibacterial activity via argininosuccinate lyase targeting, with demonstrated efficacy
