Advanced Science, EarlyView.A schematic model summarizing GNA15's mechanism in mediating macrophage M2 polarization and Gemcitabine resistance. ABSTRACT The complexity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression, coupled with the lack of effective immunotherapy, underscores the imperative to deepen our understanding of its mechanisms and identify suitable immune ...

Fingerprinting of ruby and sapphire gemstones through Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) methodologies [PDF]
European Journal of MineralogyGemstones have significant economic, cultural, and artistic value. Advances in the treatment and production of synthetic gemstones create the need for more precise identification methods to distinguish natural stones from their synthetic and treated ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals that Tex10 drives oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer by competitively binding BRD9 to disrupt the ncBAF complex, thereby suppressing AMBRA1 transcription and ULK1‐mediated autophagy. Gemcitabine is identified as a direct Tex10 inhibitor that restores autophagy and overcomes resistance.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Astrocyte‐specific SHP1 deletion disrupts astrocyte–vascular interactions and compromises BBB integrity while enhancing STAT1‐dependent CXCL10 expression. These changes synergistically promote peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration into the SDH. The infiltrating T cells secrete IFN‐γ, which in turn activates microglia.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.FES‐derived MGE spheroids exhibit progenitor‐stage alterations in developmental trajectory and hypoxia‐responsive transcriptional programs, followed by functional disruption. Gestational hypoxia recapitulates impaired progenitor proliferation, shortened cell‐cycle progression, interneuron developmental abnormalities, and schizophrenia‐like behaviors in
