THE POLITICS OF BODILY DISABILITY

Scriptura, 2013
Our bodies determine our social selves, our social location. We in turn are determined by the constructed ideal or regulatory body, symbolizing society’s ultimate values. It emerges from culture and in turn shapes and regulates the culture that gave it its life.

Liquid‐Responsive Shape‐Memory Nanofiber‐Reinforced Scaffolds for Cartilage Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A liquid‐responsive shape‐memory, nanofiber‐reinforced QCG scaffold combines conformal defect filling, an aligned architecture that is structurally permissive for endogenous cell infiltration, and sustained KGN release. This integrated design enhances BMSC viability, migratory activity, and chondrogenic differentiation and promotes hyaline cartilage ...

Remote Ischemic Post‐Conditioning Preserves the Neurovascular Unit by Brain‐Derived Gas6 That Drives Monocyte‐Derived Macrophage Reprogramming via Axl and Vimentin after SAH

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) triggers monocyte‐derived macrophage (MDM) infiltration and M1‐like polarization via Vimentin upregulation, leading to neurovascular unit disruption and cognitive dysfunction. Remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPostC) upregulates neuronal Gas6, which activates Axl on MDMs to downregulate Vimentin and drive reparative M2 ...

Ilexoside K Ameliorates Atherosclerosis by Suppressing CD72hi Macrophages and Blocking CXCL12–CXCR4 Axis to Inhibit Endothelial Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD72hi macrophages drive endothelial pyroptosis and accelerate atherosclerosis through CXCL12–CXCR4‐mediated immune–vascular crosstalk. Ilexoside K suppresses this pathogenic communication by modulating CXCR4‐dependent endothelial responses, reducing inflammation and plaque progression. These findings reveal a macrophage–endothelial regulatory axis and

Community, Care, and Citizenship: Indigenous Governance Systems and Disability Inclusion in Nigerian Politics

Shodh Sari
Nigeria’s Disability Act (2018) guarantees the rights of persons with disabilities (PWDs), yet political participation remains profoundly inaccessible: recent accessibility audits find that only 22.4% of political party buildings have ramps and 80% of ...

Versatile Microgel Platform for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Therapy: Targeting Pericyte‐Mediated Fibrosis and Protecting Nucleus Pulposus Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The engineered MMS@TRP microgel enables targeted, acid‐responsive delivery of a miR‐21 inhibitor to pericytes. It effectively suppresses disc fibrosis by inhibiting TGF‐β signaling while protecting nucleus pulposus cells via sustained, antioxidant tannic acid release.

Galactokinase 1 Positively Regulates Mitochondrial Respiration by Phosphorylating TIMM13 as a Protein Kinase

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GALK1 acts as a protein kinase beyond the phosphorylation of galactose. GALK1 phosphorylates TIMM13 at Y73 in the cytoplasm. This phosphorylation prevents premature oxidative folding of TIMM13 and ensures its entrance into the intermembrane space of mitochondrion, positively regulating mitochondrial respiration.

Mitochondrial Protection and Neural Repair via ROS‐Responsive Biomimetic Nanoparticles in Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A ROS‐responsive biomimetic nanoparticle platform co‐delivers DIDS and Mdivi‐1 to protect mitochondria and promote neural repair after intracerebral hemorrhage. By targeting LPAR1/VDAC1‐related mitochondrial dysfunction, the nanotherapy reduces oxidative injury, neuronal apoptosis, and blood‐brain barrier disruption, improving neurological recovery and

Digoxin Alleviates Osteoarthritis by Inhibiting Macrophage Extracellular Trap Formation via Disruption of the LSP1‐SOD1 Interaction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Synovial macrophages in osteoarthritis upregulate LSP1, which directly binds and inhibits SOD1, triggering a redox imbalance that activates both NOX and mitochondrial ROS pathways. This cascade drives the release of macrophage extracellular traps (METs), causing chondrocyte damage and disease progression.

FAK Mediated Coordination of Extracellular Matrix Remodeling and Cellular Mechanics Impairs Nanomedicine Delivery in Solid Tumors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FAK orchestrates a mechanical barrier limiting nanomedicine accumulation in solid tumors by coupling ECM remodeling with cytoskeletal tension. Genetic or pharmacological FAK inhibition dismantles this barrier, enhances clathrin‐mediated uptake and penetration, and overcomes delivery limitations to improve antitumor efficacy.
