Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cell–NK Cell Complexes for Spatially Targeted and Functionally Revitalized Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐15‐engineered stem cell–NK cell complexes, assembled via bioorthogonal chemistry, enable effective lung cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells represent a powerful immunotherapeutic strategy due to their intrinsic cytotoxicity and ability to target tumor cells independently of antigen presentation.

Decoding a Gut Commensal Signal: Structural and Immunological Profiling of Segatella Copri Lipopolysaccharide

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Segatella copri is a structurally unique, immunomodulatory glycoconjugate. Combining mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and cytometry by time‐of‐flight (CyTOF), we uncover a rough‐type LPS with reduced TLR4 agonism and selective monocyte effects, further highlighting the key role of LPS chemistry ...

A single-pass type I membrane protein, mannose-specific L-type lectin, potentially involved in the adhesion and invasion of Cryptosporidium parvum

Parasite
Cryptosporidium is a globally distributed zoonotic protozoan parasite that can cause severe diarrhea in humans and animals. L-type lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins involved in multiple pathways in animals and plants, including protein ...

Hologenomics Reveals Specialized Dietary Adaptations in the Mengla Snail‐Eating Snake

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dietary adaptation studies from a holobiome perspective are scarce beyond mammals. This research reveals how genomic and microbial interactions drive dietary specialization in the Mengla snail‐eating snake, with evidence of gut symbiont convergence between reptiles and mammals.

Enhanced Single‐Particle Upconversion Imaging via Energy Migration Boosting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A core‐shell‐shell Yb3⁺/Er3⁺ UCNP architecture is engineered to balance energy migration and back energy transfer, yielding more than a tenfold enhancement in single‐particle brightness. Leveraging these optimized probes, it achieves long‐term, high‐resolution single‐particle tracking in live neurons, uncovering coordinated transport mechanisms of ...

MUC15 Ectodomain Architecture Regulates Integrin Clustering to Control Cancer Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a size‐dependent adhesion paradigm, demonstrating that the glycocalyx protein MUC15 suppresses pancreatic cancer progression by attenuating integrin activation, focal adhesion assembly, and YAP mechanotransduction. Integrating computational modeling and experimental validation, the work reveals a mechanical mechanism by which MUC15 ...

Signaling C-type lectin receptors in antimycobacterial immunity

PLOS Pathogens, 2017
The mammalian innate immune system is composed of phagocytes such as macrophages and dendritic cells that serve as the first line of defense against microbial infections. These cells express various pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that recognize specific pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) on the surface of or inside microorganisms [1].
