Peptide‐based antibacterial nanoplatforms: Design principles, stimuli‐regulated behaviors, and applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Peptide‐based antibacterial nanoplatforms, encompassing self‐assembled peptides and peptide‐engineered inorganic, polymeric, and lipid nanocarriers, are systematically reviewed. The article highlights design principles and stimuli‐responsive regulation for improving peptide stability, delivery efficiency, and antibacterial performance.

Triclinic-cubic phase transition in actinide diphosphates AnP2O7 (An=Th, U, Np, Pu). Structural investigation by synchrotron radiation and solid-state NMR

open access: yes, 2012
Actinide-bearing phosphate compounds can be encountered in mineralogy, biochemistry or issued from anthropogenic activities like nuclear fuel reprocessing. They have also been envisioned and investigated as potential hosts for actinide waste disposal. In

Macroscopic Convective Fluid Flows Arising From Binding of Ions and Small Molecules to Proteins

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The interaction of ions or small molecules with proteins causes convective flows due to the displacement of water from the hydration shell. As shown, the replacement of the nickel ion removed from urease by EDTA pre‐treatment results in binding‐induced convective fluid flow.

Rapid and efficient quality control analysis of isolated mitochondria by interferometric light microscopy

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Mitochrial transplantation is a promising therapy to restore energy in damaged cells, but it lacks fast and reliable methods to assess mitochondrial quality before use. In this study, we used a label‐free imaging technique called interferometric light microscopy to rapidly measure the size and concentration of isolated mitochondria.

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.
