T Cell Glycoengineering to Modulate Immune‐Tumor Crosstalk: A Universal Non‐Genetic Strategy for Enhanced Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study describes a T cell surface engineering strategy that integrates polymer materials with tumor immunology, aiming to achieve broad‐spectrum anti‐tumor applications of glycopolymer‐engineered T (G‐T) cells via non‐genetic modification. Glycopolymer engineering generally modulates immune‐tumor crosstalk through specific cell‐cell interactions ...

Computational Design and Glycoengineering of Interferon‐Lambda for Nasal Prophylaxis Against Respiratory Viruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an engineered human interferon‐lambda (hIFN‐λ) as an intranasal prophylactic against respiratory viruses. By combining AI‐guided backbone redesign and glycoengineering, the authors developed a thermostable, protease‐resistant, and scalable variant with improved mucosal penetration.

Hyperviscous Diabetic Bone Marrow Niche Impairs BMSCs Osteogenesis via TRPV2‐Mediated Cytoskeletal‐Nuclear Mechanotransduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diabetic bone marrow exhibits pathological ECM hyperviscosity that activates TRPV2‐mediated Ca2⁺ influx, leading to perinuclear F‐actin disassembly, nuclear deformation, and chromatin condensation. This cytoskeletal‐nuclear decoupling suppresses osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.
