ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double‐stranded DNA virus that infects human skin and mucosal tissues exclusively. The German scientist Harald zur Hausen was awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the link between HPV infection and cervical cancer.

Requirements for efficient endosomal escape by designed mini-proteins
Abstract ZF5.3 is a compact, rationally designed mini-protein that escapes efficiently from the endosomes of multiple cell types. Despite its small size (27 amino acids), ZF5.3 can be isolated intact from the cytosol of treated cells and guides multiple classes of proteins into the cytosol and/or nucleus.

This review illustrates how scientists engineer exosomes by hijacking the cell's own cargo‐sorting machinery. These strategies efficiently load therapeutic molecules into natural vesicles, creating powerful next‐generation drug delivery systems (Created with BioGDP.com).

SUMOylation, a dynamic post‐translational modification, acts as a master regulator at the heart of tumor malignancy. Our work delineates how the SUMOylation cycle—mediated by E1/E2/E3 enzymes and reversed by SENPs—orchestrates multiple hallmarks of cancer. The central pathway converges on three critical pathological axes: 1.

Inspired by the role of Mg2+ in stabilizing RNA secondary structures, we developed a one‐pot biomimetic mineralization method for synthesizing a circular RNA‐based nanovaccine (circRNA@FAiNVac) that integrates formulation and adjuvant functions. This nanovaccine exhibits potent immunostimulatory activation enabling multimodal immune responses and ...

Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...

Coarse‐grained simulations show that the formation of transient anionic–cationic lipid pairs regulates the rate‐limiting step for the lamellar‐to‐hexagonal phase transition in mixtures of anionic and cationic lipids mimicking the endosomal membrane after fusion with lipid‐based nanoparticles, thus playing an important role in the endosomal escape of ...

Shaping Function: Polymeric 3D Systems With Unconventional Geometries for Biomedical Applications
Particle shape is a key design parameter governing biological interactions. Advances in fabrication enable precise control over anisotropy and compartmentalization, allowing modulation of cellular uptake, transport, and biodistribution, ultimately enhancing therapeutic performance. ABSTRACT Polymer geometry is a primary determinant of physical behavior
