Structural and Functional Versatility of the Amyloidogenic Non‐Amidated Variant of the Antimicrobial Peptide Citropin 1.3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Citropin 1.3 is an antimicrobial peptide derived from amphibians that forms amyloid structures. Here, the structural and functional properties of citropin 1.3 are characterized. Using high‐resolution imaging approaches, a variety of canonical and undescribed fibril morphologies are identified.

BLOC1S1 Attenuates B. Melitensis 16M LPS‐Triggered Autophagy by Spatial Confinement of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores how B. melitensis 16M LPS and BLOC1S1 regulate autophagy in goat spermatogonial stem cells. The 16M LPS is activating AMPK‐dependent autophagy, increasing LC3B‐II/I ratios and lysosomal genes, while Escherichia coli LPS shows no effect.

Tau Amyloid Corona‐Shelled Nanoparticle‐Based Drug Screening Platform for Discovering Tau Oligomer‐Degrading Drugs

Aggregate, EarlyView.
Tau amyloid corona‐shelled nanoparticles (TACONs) were synthesized by incubating gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with tau monomers that had been pre‐reacted with heparin. These TACONs represent a promising high‐throughput screening platform for identifying tau oligomer degraders as potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease.
