Double Helix Structure for Stable Flexural Actuation in Soft Robotics

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work introduces a double‐helical architecture for soft robotic actuators that enhances twisting resistance, increases output force, and minimizes undesired deformation. Actuators driven by shape‐memory alloy wires exhibit a roughly fivefold higher torsional/flexural stiffness ratio and 50% greater force output.

Phase II Study of Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide‐Based Graft‐Versus‐Host Disease Prophylaxis After HLA‐Mismatched Unrelated Donor Reduced Intensity Transplantation: Results From the ACCESS Trial Expansion Cohort

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) to prevent graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD) improves outcomes in recipients of HLA mismatched unrelated donor (MMUD) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo HCT). Outcomes of MMUD HCT using PTCy in patients requiring reduced intensity or non‐myeloablative conditioning (RIC/NMA) are not well ...

Leptin May Promote Eosinophilic CRSwNP Progression by Enhancing Eosinophil Chemotaxis and Angiogenesis Under a Type 2 Inflammatory Milieu

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyp (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous Type 2 inflammatory disease characterized by enhanced eosinophilic infiltration. Both innate and adaptive immunity are involved in the onset and progression of CRSwNP.

Microbial‐Metabolite Signatures Are Associated With Glucocorticoid Responsiveness in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibit heterogeneous responses to oral glucocorticoids (GCs), but the biological basis of this variability remains unclear. Objective To identify gut microbiome‒plasma metabolomic signatures associated with GC responsiveness in CRSwNP patients and to compare their ...

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.
