Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
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

Smart Nanodelivery Systems for Immunometabolic Modulation in Osteoarthritis

Exploration, EarlyView.
Smart nanodelivery systems deliver therapeutic payloads across the cartilage matrix to ensure their sustained accumulation within chondrocytes at sites of injury. By targeting specific molecular targets and signaling pathways, these platforms modulate the pathological synovium‐cartilage axis to restore immunometabolic homeostasis and drive tissue ...

Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Uncover Immune Dynamics and Cellular Heterogeneity in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Cancer Transition

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Leveraging integrated single‐cell and spatial transcriptomics, we delineated the sustained immunosuppressive landscape during prostate disease progression. Based on this, we have developed a precise gene‐based diagnostic classifier and a multimodal prognostic model.

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma

Molecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 5, Page 1140-1160, May 2026.
Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.

Plasma Proteomics Identifies Thousand‐and‐One–Amino Acid Kinase 3 as a Potential Biomarker of Rheumatoid Arthritis Activity and a Novel Therapeutic Target

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 5, Page 1045-1061, May 2026.
Objective Bone destruction associated with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains a major therapeutic challenge, with a lack of reliable molecular markers reflecting bone injury. This study aims to identify novel biomarkers linked to bone destruction in active RA through proteomic analysis, providing new strategies for precise monitoring and targeted
