A Dual‐Targeting T6SS DNase Drives Bacterial Antagonism and Eukaryotic Apoptosis via the cGAS‐STING‐TNF Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Neutrophil‐Mimicking Nanomedicine Eliminates Tumor Intracellular Bacteria and Enhances Chemotherapy on Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) enrichment has been identified in colorectal cancer and its liver metastases. This study develops neutrophil‐mimicking nanoparticles with multiple targeting capabilities encapsulating metronidazole and oxaliplatin for antibacterial and anticancer purposes. This approach reverses the epithelial mesenchymal transition process

Akkermansia Muciniphila Alleviates Severe Acute Pancreatitis via Amuc1409‐Ube2k‐Foxp3 Axis in Regulatory T Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Akkermansia depletion correlates with acute pancreatitis (AP) severity. A. muciniphila and its protein Amuc_1409 mitigate pancreatic/systemic inflammation by expanding Tregs and IL‐10. Mechanistically, Amuc_1409 binds Ube2k, inhibiting Foxp3 ubiquitination to stabilize Treg differentiation and IL‐10 production, countering SAP‐induced SIRS/CARS ...

Assembling Hexahedral Supramolecular Nano‐Aggregates on Rice Wax Layer Matrices to Promote the Leaf Deposition and Bioavailability of Bactericides for Plant Protections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To address the problem of off‐target movement and low bioavailability of pesticides, two anisotropic supramolecular building units (BiTA18@β‐CD and BiTA18@γ‐CD) have been invented that can self‐assemble into nano‐sized hexagonal cuboids on the rice microcrystalline matrix. This manipulation realizes the enhanced utilization of bactericides for rice and

Precision‐Guided Stealth Missiles in Biomedicine: Biological Carrier‐Mediated Nanomedicine Hitchhiking Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diagram illustrating the binding methods of NPs and biological barriers. The biological carrier‐mediated nanomedicine hitchhiking strategy (BCM‐NHS) utilizes two distinct techniques: the surface‐based “Backpack” method, which relies on ligand‐receptor binding, covalent conjugation, and non‐covalent binding, and the encapsulated “Trojan horse” approach,
