The Non‐Coding Regulatory Variant rs2863002 at chr11p11.2 Increases Neuroblastoma Risk by Affecting HSD17B12 Expression and Lipid Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The SNP rs2863002 at the 11p11.2 locus, identified through GWAS, is associated with an increased risk of neuroblastoma. The rs2863002‐C allele impairs the binding of the transcription factor GATA3, resulting in upregulation of the HSD17B12 gene.

Natural Allelic Variations in IbCHYR1–IbZnFR Complex Regulate Fusarium Root Rot Resistance in Sweet Potato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FfRlpA2, a conserved Fusarium effector, functions as a protease inhibitor by hijacking the E3 ubiquitin ligase IbCHYR1 to degrade the resistance factor IbZnFR, thereby promoting Fusarium pathogenicity. Conversely, the high dosage Pro::IbZnFRHap2 allele was associated with resistance to root rot disease.

Inverse Design of Highly Deformable Mechanical Metamaterial Based on Partitional Semi‐Random Optimization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This research presents a novel optimization method for the inverse design of flexible mechanical metamaterials, enhancing traditional strategies by evaluating deformation in subregions. Combining simulated annealing with a genetic algorithm, it improves design efficiency and enables customizable deformation paths.

Eosinophils‐Induced Lumican Secretion by Synovial Fibroblasts Alleviates Cartilage Degradation via the TGF‐β Pathway Mediated by Anxa1 Binding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Eosinophils play a crucial role in the progression of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). This study demonstrates that eosinophils, induced by OVA/IL‐5, promote Lumican secretion in the synovium, which binds to Annexin A1 in chondrocytes, inhibiting transforming growth factor β2 and Smad2/3 phosphorylation.

The DEC2‐SCN2A Axis is Essential for the Anticonvulsant Effects of Cannabidiol by Modulating Neuronal Plasticity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies DEC2 as a critical transcriptional repressor of Scn2a that directly binds E‐box motifs in its promoter to regulate neuronal plasticity and epileptogenesis. Functional manipulation of DEC2 alters seizure susceptibility in vivo. Cannabidiol enhances this repression, unveiling a novel DEC2‐SCN2A axis underlying its anticonvulsant ...

Selection and horizontal gene transfer underlie microdiversity-level heterogeneity in resistance gene fate during wastewater treatment

Nature Communications
Activated sludge is the centerpiece of biological wastewater treatment, as it facilitates removal of sewage-associated pollutants, fecal bacteria, and pathogens from wastewater through semi-controlled microbial ecology.

A Two‐Protein Chemoreceptor Complex Regulates Oxygen Thresholds in Bacterial Magneto‐Aerotaxis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetotactic bacteria align with Earth's magnetic field, helping them migrate toward low‐oxygen environments. This study reveals how Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense uses a specialized flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)‐dependent chemoreceptor, composed of two interacting proteins, for precise navigation in oxygen gradients.

In Situ Proliferating Peptide Nanoparticle Augments Multi‐Target Intervention of Secondary Brain Damage Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work designs an in situ proliferating peptide nanoparticle as a flexible resolution that modulates the neuro‐glia unit to enable enhanced multi‐target combinational therapy for secondary brain damage following subarachnoid hemorrhage. Abstract Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a lethal stroke subtype, involves complex pathological cascades triggered ...
