Engineering New‐to‐Nature Biological Pathways for β,γ‐Alkanediol Synthesis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.β,γ‐Alkanediols are value‐added chemicals to be used as functional solvents, biofuels, and cosmetic components. This work demonstrates a carboligation‐mediated approach for synthesis of linear chain β,γ‐alkanediols in Escherichia coli, namely, hexane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐HDO) and pentane‐2,3‐diol (2,3‐PDO). The engineered E. coli cells produce 152.2 mm (17.98

Gut microbiota–derived short‐chain fatty acids regulate group 3 innate lymphoid cells in HCC
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Background and Aims Type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are essential for host defense against infection and tissue homeostasis. However, their role in the development of HCC has not been adequately confirmed. In this study, we investigated the immunomodulatory role of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from intestinal microbiota in ILC3

Butyrate Prevents Obesity Accompanied by HDAC9-Mediated Browning of White Adipose Tissue
BiomedicinesBackground/Objectives: Mounting evidence indicates that the short-chain fatty acid butyrate protects against obesity and associated comorbidities, partially through the induction of adipose tissue thermogenesis.

The thermodynamic landscape of carbon redox biochemistry [PDF]
, 2018 Redox biochemistry plays a key role in the transduction of chemical energy in all living systems. Observed redox reactions in metabolic networks represent only a minuscule fraction of the space of all possible redox reactions.

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
Advanced Science, EarlyView.T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Enhanced mitochondrial activity reshapes a gut microbiota profile that delays NASH progression
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Improved mitochondrial activity, due to the lack of methylation‐controlled J protein (MCJ), creates a specific microbiota signature that when transferred through cecal microbiota transplantation delays NASH progression by restoring the gut‐liver axis and enhancing hepatic fatty acid oxidation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cer24:1 levels are reduced in neutrophilic asthma and inversely correlate with disease severity and airway neutrophilia. Restoring Cer24:1 suppresses pathogenic Th17 differentiation by engaging EP2 on CD4+ T cells, thereby dampening the JAK2–STAT3–RORγt axis and reducing IL‐17 production.
