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.

Contraceptive testing of vaginal agents in rabbits

Contraception, 1998
Development of new vaginal products, such as microbiocides and contraceptives, requires in vivo testing of their effect on fertility. Rabbits, unlike smaller laboratory animals such as rats and mice, which inseminate in the uterus, inseminate vaginally and thus are valuable as animal models for testing vaginal agents for contraceptive effects.
