C-reactive protein is essential for innate resistance to pneumococcal infection. [PDF]

, 2014
No deficiency of human C-reactive protein (CRP), or even structural polymorphism of the protein, has yet been reported so its physiological role is not known.

Ultrasound‐Activatable Piezoelectric Hydrogel Reprograms Mitochondrial Epigenetics for Osteoarthritis Therapy via the mTOR/GATD3A Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An ultrasound‐activatable piezoelectric hydrogel reprograms chondrocyte mitochondrial epigenetics via the mTOR/GATD3A axis, clearing damaged mitochondria and alleviating osteoarthritis progression in both mouse models and human cartilage explants. ABSTRACT The avascular nature of cartilage hinders drug delivery for osteoarthritis (OA) therapy.

Blood Cell‐Camouflaged Liquid Metal Nanoconjugates Orchestrate Treg Depletion and STING‐Amplified Photothermal Immunity for Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐blood biomimetic engineering transforms liquid metal nanoparticles into a tripartite immunotherapeutic platform that orchestrates regulatory T‐cell depletion, photothermal‐induced immunogenic cell death, and activation of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway.

BraMARS: An Interpretable Histopathology‐Driven Deep Learning Model for Brain Metastasis Risk Stratification in Surgically Resected Limited‐Stage SCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents BraMARS, an explainable deep learning model that estimates future brain metastasis risk in surgically resected limited‐stage small‐cell lung cancer using routine H&E‐stained whole‐slide images. By linking model‐attributed spatial histopathology with clinical outcomes and proteomic programs, BraMARS provides a biologically ...

PROTAC‐Engineered Protein/DNA Nanoantigen is a Potent Booster for Dendritic Cell Vaccines in Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A PROTAC‐functionalized protein/DNA‐integrated nanoantigen platform is developed to enhance dendritic cell vaccine potency. By combining a VHL‐recruiting peptide‐modified antigen with a sustained expression plasmid within CaCO3 nanoparticles, this system amplifies cross‐presentation, promotes DC maturation, and elicits robust Th1 and CTL responses ...

A Multidimensional Engineering Strategy Reprograms Microglia via Targeted and Sustained‐Release Extracellular Vesicles for Spinal Cord Injury Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional EV‐based nanoplatform (Ang‐TEVs@Gel) was engineered via preconditioning, surface targeting, and ROS‐responsive hydrogel encapsulation to reprogram microglia. This system restored autophagy via miR‐664a‐3p/PIK3CA axis, cleared myelin debris, resolved neuroinflammation, and promoted axon remyelination, ultimately achieving robust motor ...

An Avalanche Effect Nanomodulator Triggers Cascade Ferroptosis/Cuproptosis for Immunosuppressive Microenvironment Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A nanomodulator called L‐Arginine/lificiguat@Copper‐hollow Prussian blue@Calcium phosphate nanoparticles is constructed to launch a self‐amplifying “avalanche effect” in tumor cells. The ensuing cascade, triggered by the acidic tumor microenvironment and near‐infrared light, induces calcium overload, generates a reactive oxygen species and reactive ...
