Mechanical Flexibility Enables DNA Origami to Overcome Steric Confinement in Mucus
Mechanical flexibility is introduced as a design parameter to enhance nanocarrier transport in mucus. Using DNA origami, flexibility is decoupled from size, shap and surface chemistry, revealing improved passage through confined hydrogel networks. While surface passivation reduces aggregation, flexibility further boosts transport, offering a general ...

Elamipretide Rejuvenates Oocyte Quality and Restores Female Fertility During Reproductive Aging
We reported a novel peptide therapy showing that elamipretide restores the quality of aged oocytes for fertility by coordinately boosting oocyte nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation via activation of the VEGF signaling pathway. ABSTRACT Aging represents a major contributor to the deterioration of female fertility, with oocyte quality being the central ...
