Hyperelastic Starch Hydrogel Configures Edible and Biodegradable All‐Components for Soft Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperelastic starch hydrogel is tailored via a phase separation strategy of solvent‐antisolvent co‐modulation. The mechanical performance of starch hydrogel is widely tuned with maximum strains: 194.4–361.4%; maximum tensile stresses: 34–192 kPa; and Young's moduli: 36.0–205.8 kPa. Notably, the hydrogel achieves complete soil degradation within 24 days

SIP‐SRS Imaging of Cell Wall Synthesis Identifies a Synergy between Micafungin and Amphotericin B

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We employed glucose‐d7–based stable isotope probe‐assisted SRS microscopy (SIP‐SRS) C–D imaging to visualize fungal cell wall synthesis and remodeling under antifungal treatment. Amphotericin B (AmB) induced notable daughter cell wall thickening, prompting a combinational therapy with AmB and micafungin.

Homocysteine Exacerbates Pulmonary Fibrosis via Orchestrating Syntaxin 17 Homocysteinylation of Alveolar Type II Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study identifies elevated homocysteine (Hcy) levels in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients' samples, with alveolar type 2 cells as the primary site of Hcy metabolism. Methionine synthase reductase downregulation in these cells exacerbates fibrosis, while folate administration reduces Hcy levels and alleviates fibrosis.

Synergistic Promotion of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Tumorigenesis and Metastasis by Oral Polystyrene Nanoplastics Exposure via Alloprevotella‐Derived Glutamate and Platelet Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) administered via oral exposure accelerate triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) progression by synergistically modulating gut microbiota‐derived glutamate production and platelet activation. This study uncovers a pivotal crosstalk between microbial metabolites and platelet‐tumor interactions, offering mechanistic ...

cGAS Inhibits ALDH2 to Suppress Lipid Droplet Function and Regulate MASLD Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
cGAS is a cytosolic DNA sensor known for innate immune defense. cGAS binds and suppresses ALDH2 are showed, limiting acetyl‐CoA production. cGAS loss activates ALDH2, promoting histone acetylation, lipogenesis, and lipid droplets accumulation. cGas‐/‐ mice on a high‐fat diet show signs of worsened MASLD.

Polydopamine Nanodots Ameliorate Inflammatory Bowel Disease by Restoring Redox Homeostasis and Intestinal Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel melanin‐based therapeutic composed of ultrasmall polydopamine nanodots is employed as an efficient oral formulation for the targeted treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. The potential therapeutic mechanism of polydopamine nanodots mainly involves the elimination of excessive oxidative stress, the reduction of ROS‐mediated proinflammatory ...

NIR‐II Responsive Multifunctional Scaffold Enabling “Kill‐Modulation‐Build” Synergistic Therapy for Infectious Bone Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel multifunctional scaffold with photothermal effects is developed for infected bone defect repair. It facilitates angiogenesis and osteogenesis while eliminating bacteria through hyperthermia. Additionally, the scaffold promotes macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 via ROS scavenging, enhancing anti‐inflammatory activity. This study demonstrates
