Effects of efflux pumps on antifungal activity of chitosan against Candida albicans

Journal of Oral Microbiology
Background Antifungal resistance is a major problem, commonly caused by drug-efflux pump overexpression. To evaluate if chitosan could be effective in drug-resistant Candida infections, we investigated the effects of efflux pumps on antifungal activity ...

Lactate‐Driven Restriction of Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Promotes Resistance to Chemo‐Immunotherapy by Suppressing Tumor PANoptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor‐derived lactate establishes a metabolic lock that drives chemo‐immunotherapy resistance by suppressing PANoptosis. Mechanistically, KAT8 lactylates the mitochondrial translocator ANT2, which recruits PGAM5 to dephosphorylate CypD. This cascade restricts mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, preventing pro‐inflammatory mtDNA leakage.

Bioinspired Passive Flow Routing to Mitigate Thrombosis in Prosthetic Heart Valves and Cardiovascular Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioinspired passive flow routing mitigates thrombosis in cardiovascular devices by redirecting a small fraction of forward flow into stagnation‐prone regions. Inspired by avian alula and aircraft slat mechanisms, strategically placed routing channels restore washout around mechanical heart valves, reducing low‐shear exposure by four orders of magnitude

Exploring allosteric efflux pump inhibitors and the role of bacterial membrane potential in modulating drug resistance

Frontiers in Microbiology
Multi-drug resistance (MDR) bacteria pose a significant global health challenge, primarily driven by the activity of multi-drug efflux pumps and their intimate coupling to bacterial membrane bioenergetics.

PRMT5‐Dependent Stabilization of VPS34 Orchestrates Copper Trafficking to Shield Cancer Cells from Cuproptosis and Radiotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Radioresistance arises partly from tumor cells evading cuproptosis via unknown defenses. This study reveals that the PRMT5‐VPS34 axis acts as a radiation‐activated anticuproptotic mechanism: PRMT5 methylates VPS34 at Arg174, recruiting USP10 to remove K48‐linked ubiquitination and prevent degradation.

Self‐Sustaining Lactate Depletion Nanoplatform Remodels Tumor Microenvironment and Augments Synergistic Photodynamic/Photothermal/Chemodynamic/Starvation Therapy for Eradication of Colon Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The HILA nanoplatform integrates HMnO2, LOX, and ICG to orchestrate multimodal therapy (starvation, chemodynamic, photodynamic, and photothermal) for achieving efficient colon cancer eradication. The established HMnO2‐LOX catalytic cycle continuously consumes lactate, acidifys microenvironment, relieves hypoxia, and generats reactive oxygen species ...

Curvature‐Controlled Field Effect Enables Thermal Localization for Low‐Temperature C─F Bond Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐curvature γ‐Al2O3 nanoneedles concentrate heat into nanoscale hotspots under identical external heating, amplifying local temperature and accelerating CF4 decomposition. By linking curvature‐induced thermal localization to lower apparent activation barriers and enhanced intermediate formation, this work reveals geometry as a powerful design ...
