Development of a Modular Ribonucleoprotein Complex as a General Strategy to Deliver RNAi Therapeutics

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular and customizable RNAi therapeutics delivery platform composed of a pseudosymmetric human RNA binding protein‐siRNA complex (SmiRNP) is developed. By fusing a targeting module and an endosomal escape peptide onto the delivery platform, SmiRNP successfully delivered siRNA to silence the KRAS oncogene in a colorectal carcinoma cell line, leading

Selective Lipolysis by Photoactivation of Chaperone‐Mediated Autophagy Using Adipocyte Membrane‐Coated Nanoparticle in Hydrogel

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Adipocyte membrane‐coated nanoparticles loaded with rosiglitazone in hydrogel offer an alternative approach to conventional obesity treatments. This system selectively targets adipocytes, inducing lipolysis by activating chaperone‐mediated autophagy through mild photothermal stimulation.

An Ultrapotent, Ultraeconomical, Antifreeze Polypeptide

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Simple and inexpensive polypeptides composed of random copolymers of alanine and glutamic acid are effective antifreezes for applications in foods and biomedicine. The polypeptides, inspired by natural extremophile proteins, inhibit the growth of large ice crystals and prevent damage to sensitive biologics.

Interactions Between Active Matters and Endogenous Fields

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes endogenous field information and computational methods in contexts such as cancer, wounds, and biofilms. It organizes NAMs and AAMs by sensing, transmitting, and executing functions, compares their limitations, and from these contrasts proposes design strategies for next‐generation AAMs, offering perspectives to foster ...

High‐Speed Raman Readout of Single Polypeptides via Plasmonic Nanopores

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A label‐free method is presented for single‐protein investigation using plasmonic nanopores that enable stable, cost‐effective Raman detection of polypeptides in real time. An average of 6 photons is measured during a dwell time of 7 microseconds per amino acid.

Flippase‐Mediated Hybrid Vesicle Division

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The successful reconstitution of Drs2p–Cdc50p flippase in small and giant polymer lipid hybrid vesicles is illustrated. The hybrid vesicles show adenosine 5′‐triphosphate consumption and flipping of 2‐dioleoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phospho‐l‐serine lipids from the inner to the outer leaflet.

Chemoselective Characterization of New Extracellular Matrix Deposition in Bioengineered Tumor Tissues

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Understanding the bi‐directional crosstalk between cells and their surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical for tissue engineering. This study presents a chemoselective strategy for proteomic profiling of newly deposited ECM from resident cells.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial
