Two‐Dimensional Conjugated Metal Organic Frameworks with Dual Metal Catalytic Active Sites Enhance POD Activity for Antibacterial Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A new class of Cu, Ni bimetallic 2D cMOF (CuNi‐HHTP 2D cMOF) featuring dual catalytic sites and high delocalized electronic structure for boosting POD performance. The CuNi‐HHTP 2D‐cMOF enhances the conversion kinetics of H2O2 to ROS, which subsequently enhances antibacterial activity and accelerates the healing of oral ulcers, with macroscopic wound ...

PolyG Fibrils Coalesce Into Nuclear Ribbons That Engage Proteostasis Machinery in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In NIID, expanded NOTCH2NLC repeats give rise to nuclear polyG inclusions. Tracer‐guided in situ cryo‐electron tomography enables cross‐scale structural analysis from mouse brain to native neuronal nuclei, revealing dense‐core/peripheral‐halo inclusions built from compact polyG ribbons.

Trafficking Deficiency of TMEM175 Variants in Parkinson's Disease Pathogenesis and the Prospects of Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies that the PD‐associated TMEM175‐L156P variant disrupts lysosomal ion channel trafficking by causing aberrant endoplasmic reticulum retention. A “chaperone–agonist” bifunctional small molecule restores TMEM175‐L156P lysosomal localization and channel function, thereby alleviating PD‐relevant cellular phenotypes and highlighting a ...

A Personalized Haplotype‐Resolved Near‐Gapless Genome Framework for Somatic Variant Discovery in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A patient‐specific, haplotype‐resolved genome framework improves detection and interpretation of somatic variants in hepatocellular carcinoma. Using multi‐platform sequencing, the personalized assembly resolves complex regions including centromeres and MHC/HLA loci, enhances structural variant discovery, and links regulatory alterations to allele ...

Crosstalk Between CTSB+ Glioblastoma Cells and S100A10+ Macrophages: A Self‐Reinforcing Circuit Promotes Immune Evasion and Limits Response to Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In glioblastoma, M2‐polarized macrophages secrete IL‐6, which activates STAT3 signaling in tumor cells to upregulate CTSB. Tumor‐derived CTSB binds the C‐terminus of macrophage S100A10, reinforcing M2 polarization and further IL‐6 secretion, thereby establishing a feedforward IL‐6/STAT3/CTSB/S100A10 loop. This cascade drives tumor growth, invasion, and
