Type I Interferon Signaling Augments Autoimmunity in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The cGAS‐STING innate immune pathway is excessively activated both in peripheral monocytes and CNS microglia in patients with NMOSD, leading to an overproduction of IFN‐I. IFN‐I subsequently acts on AQP4‐specific autoreactive T cells. Blocking this pathway may offer novel therapeutic options for individuals with NMOSD.

Melatonin Modulates Glucose Metabolism Reprogramming via Targeting G6PD to Alleviate Lead‐Induced Hepatocytes Pyroptosis in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that Lead reprograms glucose metabolism to enhance H3K18la, driving DRP1‐dependent mitochondrial DNA leakage and cGAS‐STING‐mediated pyroptosis. Melatonin targets G6PD to suppress glycolysis‐driven H3K18la and restore mitochondrial homeostasis, thereby alleviating Lead‐induced liver injury in common carp through disruption of the ...

Specific Control of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Surface-Associated Behaviors by Two c-di-GMP Diguanylate Cyclases

open access: yesmBio, 2010
The signaling nucleotide cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) regulates the transition between motile and sessile growth in a wide range of bacteria. Understanding how microbes control c-di-GMP metabolism to activate specific pathways is complicated by the ...

Gut Metabolite Indole‐3‐Propionic Acid Regulates Macrophage Autophagy Through PPT1 Inhibiting Aging‐Related Myocardial Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
IPA is an intestinal tryptophan metabolite whose effects decline with decreased heart function. Supplementing IPA can alleviate the aging‐related myocardial fibrosis through PPT1. PPT1 is a key protein localized to lysosomes, and IPA can restore macrophage autophagy function by regulating PPT1 expresssions, thereby reducing aging‐related myocardial ...

Co-Delivery of Gemcitabine and Paclitaxel in cRGD-Modified Long Circulating Nanoparticles with Asymmetric Lipid Layers for Breast Cancer Treatment

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Combination chemotherapy is a common clinical practice in cancer treatment. Here, cyclic RGD (arginylglycylaspartic acid) peptide was introduced to the surface of lipid/calcium/phosphate (LCP) asymmetric lipid layer nanoparticles for the co-delivery of ...

The chemotherapeutic agent DMXAA as a unique IRF3-dependent type-2 vaccine adjuvant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
5,6-Dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA), a potent type I interferon (IFN) inducer, was evaluated as a chemotherapeutic agent in mouse cancer models and proved to be well tolerated in human cancer clinical trials.

Advanced Cancer Immunotherapy via SMARCAL1 Blockade Using a Glucose‐Responsive CRISPR Nanovaccine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A glucose‐catalyzed chemodynamic strategy is proposed to activate therapeutic genome editing of SMARCAL1to improve cancer immunotherapy. This innovative design featuring Fenton reaction activity and glucose consumption ability, not only effectively synergizes to activate the cGAS‐STING pathway but also inhibits the opposing functions of interferon by ...

Getting Wrinkly Spreaders to demonstrate evolution in schools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Understanding evolution is crucial to modern biology,but most teachers would assume that practical demonstrations of evolution in school laboratories are unfeasible.
