Introduction: Transporters, Porins, and Efflux Pumps [PDF]
All living cells are surrounded by lipidic membranes that separate metabolic and macromolecular biosynthetic processes from external environments. Biological membranes vary dramatically in their composition and structures and are optimized by mega-annum of evolution to effectively carry out diverse biological functions including energy production ...

Artificial Intelligence‐Guided Phenotypic Drug Repurposing Against Streptococcus pneumoniae
Integrated artificial intelligence (AI) ensembles identify highly potent repurposed drugs against Streptococcus pneumoniae. Prospective virtual screening of 6747 drugs uncovers nine active candidates, including thiostrepton. This drug exhibits low picomolar potency and bypasses established resistance in multidrug‐resistant strains, demonstrating an ...

Programmable Paracrine‐Mimetic Microneedle System for Temporal Regulation of Cardiac Repair
Temporal signaling is encoded into a programmable paracrine‐mimetic microneedle patch via tris(2,2'‐bipyridyl)dichlororuthenium(II) hexahydrate/sodium persulfate‐tuned hydrogel microparticles that deliver TGF‐β, IGF‐1, and VEGF over phase‐matched 7‐, 14‐, and 28‐day windows.

One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a
