Bioadhesive‐Integrated 3D‐Printed Multilayer Scaffolds Secure a Mechanically‐Stable Osteoimmune Niche for Enhanced Bone Augmentation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D‑printed multilayer adhesive scaffold, firmly anchored to bone defects by simple finger pressing, suppresses micromotion and secures mechanical stability of the osteogenic niche. This stabilization likely contributes to the enhanced bone augmentation by fostering a pro‑regenerative mechano‐immune profile—characterized by M2‑like macrophage ...

Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for Pneumocystis jirovecii detection in lower respiratory tract samples

Microbiology Spectrum
To date, the gold standard for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PjP) diagnosis is direct microscopic examination (ME). However, several studies have shown that the DNA copy number of the P.

Blood Cell‐Camouflaged Liquid Metal Nanoconjugates Orchestrate Treg Depletion and STING‐Amplified Photothermal Immunity for Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐blood biomimetic engineering transforms liquid metal nanoparticles into a tripartite immunotherapeutic platform that orchestrates regulatory T‐cell depletion, photothermal‐induced immunogenic cell death, and activation of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway.

BraMARS: An Interpretable Histopathology‐Driven Deep Learning Model for Brain Metastasis Risk Stratification in Surgically Resected Limited‐Stage SCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents BraMARS, an explainable deep learning model that estimates future brain metastasis risk in surgically resected limited‐stage small‐cell lung cancer using routine H&E‐stained whole‐slide images. By linking model‐attributed spatial histopathology with clinical outcomes and proteomic programs, BraMARS provides a biologically ...

An Innervated Human Skin Equivalent that Electrically Encodes Mechanical and Thermal Stimuli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innervated human skin equivalent is integrated with high‐density microelectrode arrays to reveal how engineered free nerve ending–like structures translate touch and temperature into electrical codes. Mechanical indentation and thermal stimulation engage the engineered somatosensory circuitry and evoke distinct firing and waveform signatures ...

Versatile Co‐Engineering of Immunogenic Cell Death‐Primed Dead Tumor Cell Bodies With Tumor‐Activated MnO2 for cGAS‐STING‐Potentiated Personalized Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
DTBEI@CS@MnO2, fabricated via modular electrostatic co‐engineering and photothermal/photodynamic immunogenic cell death, specifically responds to the acidic and GSH‐rich tumor microenvironment. This triggers the release of DTBEI that provides tumor antigens, DNA, and DAMPs, as well as the generation of Mn2+, thereby synergistically potentiating cGAS ...

Dual‐Responsive Hydrogels Integrate Bioelectrical Stimulation and Piezo‐Photocatalysis for Regenerative Treatment of Infected Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A wireless, dual‐responsive hydrogel (PVA/(PVDF‐TrFE)/BiOClBr@PDA) is developed to promote efficient regeneration of infected wounds by integrating piezoelectric stimulation with piezo‐photocatalytic pathways. Under simultaneous light and ultrasonic stimulation, the hydrogel generates therapeutic electrical cues and reactive oxygen species, disrupting ...
