A Serum‐Stable Antimicrobial Peptide‐Based Delivery Platform for Selective Treatment of Nontargetable and Chemoresistant Tumors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A modular antimicrobial‐peptide‐based therapeutic system integrating membrane‐targeted selectivity, a conformation‐driven polyethylene glycolylated blocker, and serum‐stabilizing N‐cap is developed. The optimized conjugate 270 shows potent, rapid killing of the desired tumor cells, high serum stability, low off‐target toxicity, and broad applicability,

Microglial Deletion of Hrh4 Alleviates Alzheimer's Disease Pathologies by Enhancing Microglial Phagocytosis of Amyloid‐β and Tau

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Histamine H4 receptor (H4R) antagonist VUF6002 mimics low‐dose X‐ray irradiation in aged Alzheimer's disease (AD) mice, enhancing microglial clearance of amyloid‐beta/hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates and restoring cognition. Microglial H4R deletion activates cAMP/TGF‐β1/Smad3 pathway, enhancing phagocytosis, while TGF‐β receptor 1 deletion abolishes ...

ADAR1 as a Placental Innate Immune Rheostat Sustaining the Homeostatic Balance of Intrinsic Interferon Response at the Maternal‐Fetal Interface

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that ADAR1, an RNA‐editing enzyme, fine‐tunes immune responses in the placenta by preventing the accumulation of immunogenic double‐stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) from interferon‐stimulated genes. The loss of ADAR1 in the placenta leads to excessive interferon signaling restricted to the junctional zone, disrupting placental development and ...

Elevated Apolipoprotein E Expression in Hippocampal Microglia Drives Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In temporal lobe epilepsy, hippocampal APOE is markedly upregulated predominantly in microglia. APOE overexpression in microglia drives TLR4 and cGAS/STING‐dependent neuroinflammation, engages bidirectional crosstalk with neurons and astrocytes, increases neuronal excitability, and perturbs hippocampal lipid metabolism. These findings suggest that APOE‐

Mechanical Cues Regulate Cargo Sorting and Export at the Golgi

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A pathway is identified linking extracellular matrix stiffness to secretion via Src–FAK–AMPK–GBF1 signaling. Golgi‐localized GBF1 acts as a mechanotransducer whose phosphorylation controls post‐Golgi cargo sorting toward secretion or lysosomal degradation.

TWF2 Drives Tumor Progression and Sunitinib Resistance in Renal Cell Carcinoma through Hippo Signaling Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Twinfilin actin‐binding protein (TWF2) is upregulated in sunitinib‐resistant renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells, where it interacts with YAP and protects YAP from degradation. Stabilized YAP translocates into the nucleus and activates transcription of target genes, promoting RCC progression and drug resistance.

Gigaxonin Potentiates Antiviral Innate Immune Responses by Targeting cGAS and TREX1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TREX1 antagonizes DNA sensor cGAS by degrading cytosolic DNA. This work identifies gigaxonin as a molecular switch that coordinates DNA sensing and clearance pathways to amplify antiviral responses. Under the steady state, gigaxonin maintains cellular homeostasis by mediating TREX1 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. During DNA virus infection,

SIP‐SRS Imaging of Cell Wall Synthesis Identifies a Synergy between Micafungin and Amphotericin B

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We employed glucose‐d7–based stable isotope probe‐assisted SRS microscopy (SIP‐SRS) C–D imaging to visualize fungal cell wall synthesis and remodeling under antifungal treatment. Amphotericin B (AmB) induced notable daughter cell wall thickening, prompting a combinational therapy with AmB and micafungin.
