Smart Antibacterial Coatings: Harnessing Bacterial Redox Activity for Infection Control

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In this study, we have shown that ceftazidime‐loaded poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT@CAZ) functions as a smart, redox‐responsive antibacterial coating that couples bacterial electrical activity with localized antibiotic delivery. Shewanella oneidensis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa induced distinct redox responses in PEDOT, reflecting their ...

Distinct DNA repair pathways cause genomic instability at alternative DNA structures

Nature Communications, 2020
Z-DNA-forming CG repeats are mutagenic in mammalian cells but the mechanism has remained unknown so far. Here, the authors show that the nucleotide excision repair complex Rad10-Rad1 (ERCC1-XPF) and the mismatch repair complex Msh2-Msh3 (MSH2-MSH3) are ...

Nuclear EGFR modulation of DNA repair [PDF]

, 2011
Overexpression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is associated with resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. EGFR involvement, in repair of radiation-induced DNA damage, is mediated by association with the catalytic subunit of DNA ...

Modulation of miR‐23b Wnt/β‐catenin Axis Strengthens Endothelial Barrier Properties

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Early blood‐brain barrier (BBB) disruption contributes to stroke and CNS disease pathology. miR‐23b was identified as a regulator of BBB integrity in brain endothelial cells. Inhibition of miR‐23b enhanced barrier‐associated properties, promoted repair‐related signaling, and reduced BBB leakage in experimental stroke models, supporting further ...

Attomolar Detection of HIV‐1 With Label‐Free RCA‐rCRISPR on Smartphone

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new diagnostic strategy integrating rolling circle amplification (RCA) with a plasmid reporter–based ratiometric CRISPR (rCRISPR) system was developed to detect unfragmented HIV genomes with single‐digit attomolar sensitivity. The method quantifies targets using the plasmid relaxation ratio and employs a smartphone‐based mini‐gel device to enable ...

Engineering Immunoregenerative Therapy via an Immunomodulatory Binary Pharmacology Hydrogel Depot for Prolonged Allograft Survival

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An immunomodulatory hydrogel (iGEL) forms spontaneously upon subcutaneous injection, acting as a tissue‐adhesive depot. It releases anti‐rejection and regenerative agents in response to inflammation, suppressing T‐cell activity, promoting vascular repair, and restoring allograft function without systemic immunosuppression.

An oligo-swapping method: preparation of mismatch repair-monitoring substrate using a nicking endonuclease

MethodsX
Mismatch repair (MMR) contributes to accurate DNA replication by eliminating mismatched bases during DNA synthesis. Its importance is underscored by Lynch syndrome, a common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome caused by MMR gene mutations.
