Bioactive Gold Plasmonic Interfaces Meet Artificial Intelligence: Advancing Saliva‐Based Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Diagnostics

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bioactive gold plasmonic nanostructures are enabling non‐invasive saliva diagnostics by amplifying weak Raman signals and converting complex biofluid chemistry into information‐rich spectral fingerprints. This Review examines saliva‐based Raman and surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) integrated with artificial intelligence (AI) from a ...

Comparing the Effects of Microplastics From Conventional Cigarette Butts and Heated Tobacco Device: The Role of UV‐Induced Aging

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the widespread presence of cigarette butts in the environment, the potential toxicological effects posed by microplastics (MPs) derived from them remain poorly understood. In this study, we compared the effects of MPs from conventional cigarette butts (cellulose acetate) and heated tobacco devices (cellulose acetate and polylactic acid

Bronchoalveolar lavage.

Australian and New Zealand journal of medicine, 1986
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a relatively new technique for assessment of the alveolar compartment of the lung. Its current clinical applications are the initial assessment of acute and chronic diffuse interstitial lung disease and the diagnosis of pulmonary infections, especially in the immunocompromised host.

Comprehensive evaluation of metagenomic next‐generation sequencing for pathogen identification in patients with suspected infection: Establishment of a standardized validation workflow

VIEW, EarlyView.
Comprehensive evaluation of metagenomic next‐generation sequencing for pathogen identification in patients with suspected infection: Establishment of a standardized validation workflow. Abstract Metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) enables unbiased identification of pathogens directly from clinical specimens. Despite its growing application in

Deficiency of Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Enzyme, CPT1A, Underlies Airway Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Severe Asthma

Allergy, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial fatty acid enzyme, CPT1A, is deficient in the airway epithelium of severe asthma patients. Restoration of CPT1A expression improved epithelial barrier integrity via increasing mitochondrial respiration and ATP production in airway epithelial cells. Restoration of deficient epithelial CPT1A may represent a new treatment approach for severe

Pathogenic Airway Bacteria and Local Immune Responses During Early‐Life Asthma‐Like Episodes

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates how Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Moraxella catarrhalis associate with airway immune responses during early‐life asthma‐like episodes, and compare these responses between children with and without asthma.

Selective Absence of Co‐Inhibitory Receptor‐Expressing CD4+ T Cells in Lungs of Obese House Dust Mite‐Allergic C57BL/6 Mice

Allergy, EarlyView.
Obesity altered the inflammatory phenotype of HDM‐induced allergic airway inflammation in C57BL/6 mice, indicated by changed BAL cell composition. Single‐cell CITE‐Seq identified the lack of a CD4+ T‐cell subcluster characterized by co‐inhibitory receptor expression in obese HDM‐exposed C57BL/6 mice.
