Functional Disorder at the Neural Interface: How Disordered Nanostructures Promote Proper Growth and Differentiation in In Vitro Neural Cultures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work provides a practical guide for neuroengineers to design advanced neural interfaces, embracing and tailoring the concept of functional disorder. By bridging 2D and 3D in vitro models, this work highlights how non‐periodic, spatially heterogeneous, multiscale nanotopography can enable more physiologically relevant platforms for studying neural ...

Collagen‐Binding IL‐15 Immunocytokine Armed Oncolytic Adenovirus Establishes a Self‐Reinforcing Immunostimulatory Milieu to Potentiate Antitumor Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Repurposing the dense tumor stroma from a physical barrier into an anchoring scaffold, an engineered oncolytic adenovirus encoding IL15C‐CBD overcomes the immunosuppressive microenvironment in triple‐negative breast cancer. Intratumoral viral replication secretes this collagen‐anchored immunocytokine, forming a localized cytokine depot.

Targeting Macrophage STING O‐GlcNAcylation via Small‐Molecule Allosteric Modulation for Psoriasis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Paeoniflorin allosterically targets the STING cyclic dinucleotide‐binding domain, stabilizes an inactive open conformation, and disrupts STING–OGT interaction to reduce Thr229 O‐GlcNAcylation and downstream signaling. This mechanism restrains myeloid STING activation, alleviates psoriasis‐like inflammation, and is supported by analyses of patient ...
