Dual‐Crosslinked Betaine‐Based Amphiphilic Hydrogel as a Promising Vitreous Substitute: Anti‐Adhesion, Anti‐Fouling, and Anti‐Cell Proliferation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel multiple cross‐linked betaine‐type amphiphilic polymer hydrogels are developed via in situ free radical copolymerization. The resultant formation, named P(SBMA‐co‐AANa) hydrogel, functions as a vitreous substitute and demonstrates superior performance in optical properties, support capacity, and biocompatibility on a vitrectomized rabbit model.

Metabolic Stress‐Induced Choline Kinase α (CHKA) Activation in Endothelial Subpopulation Contributes to Diabetes‐Associated Microvascular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers CHKA as a pivotal driver of vascular dysfunction in diabetic retinopathy and highlights its role in endothelial dysfunction through NAD⁺‐SIRT1‐Notch signaling. Single‐cell and functional analyses, combined with clinical and genetic validation, suggest CHKA as a promising therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of ...

BRD4 Signaling Maintains the Differentiated State of β Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The comprehensive exploration revealed the critical role of BRD4 in β cells. BRD4 plays a fundamental role in maintaining β cell differentiation because both long‐term and acute BRD4 deficiency result in a reduction in insulin secretion and downregulation of differentiation markers.

Plasma Metabolic Profile with Machine Learning Reveals Distinct Diagnostic and Biological Signatures for Pathologic Myopia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Plasma metabolic detection combined with machine learning offers a precise (area under the curve of 0.874) and high‐throughput (<30 s) diagnosis for pathologic myopia (serious myopic macular degeneration). The biomarkers indicate the pathologic myopia‐associated systemic metabolic reprogramming, which exhibits specificity for myopic macular ...

Do Connexin Mutants Cause Cataracts by Perturbing Glutathione Levels and Redox Metabolism in the Lens?

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Cataracts of many different etiologies are associated with oxidation of lens components. The lens is protected by maintenance of a pool of reduced glutathione (GSH) and other antioxidants.

Intermediate Filament Protein BFSP2 Controls Spindle Formation via HSC70‐Mediated Stabilization of CLTC During Oocyte meiosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that has different regulation and mechanisms with mitosis in numerous aspects. Particularly, meiosis I is unique and occurs only in germ cells to separate homologous chromosomes. Thus, determining how this unusual chromosome segregation behavior is established is central to understanding germ cell ...
