Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

SDPR–STK38 axis controls the proliferation–differentiation balance in alveolar type II cells
The present study identifies SDPR as a pivotal regulator orchestrating the balance between proliferation and differentiation in alveolar type II (AT2) cells. In SDPR+/+ cells, SDPR binds to and inhibits STK38 activity, thereby sustaining GSK‐3β signaling functionality to promote cyclin D1 degradation and maintain cell cycle homeostasis.

Geometric Nonuniformity Localizes Valence Orbitals in Gold Clusters: Case Study on [Au23(SC6H11)16]–
The electronic structure of [Au23(SC6H11)16]–, a monolayer‐protected gold cluster with a nonuniform Au13 core, was investigated. Anion photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations revealed that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and HOMO‐1 are localized on the two triangular Au3 units at the ends of the Au13 core ...

Catalytic Enantioselective Intramolecular Aza‐Michael Addition to α,β‐Unsaturated Esters
A general method for accessing enantioenriched saturated N‐heterocycles via a catalytic enantioselective intramolecular aza‐Michael reaction to α,β‐unsaturated esters is described. A superbasic bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) catalyst was key to enabling reactivity of the high pKa sulfonamide pronucleophile, whilst delivering good to excellent ...

A coumarin‐based dual‐emission fluorophore was designed to visualize the maturation of protein liquid droplets. Upon covalent conjugation to droplet‐forming proteins, ratiometric fluorescence imaging allowed real time monitoring of droplet maturation. This probe is applicable to the analysis of droplet formation and maturation mechanisms, as well as to
