Advanced Science, EarlyView.CuPB@HA is a CD44‐associated, plaque‐targeted nanozyme that alleviates oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid accumulation in macrophages. By reducing CD36‐dependent lipid uptake and promoting ABCA1/ABCG1‐mediated cholesterol handling, it improves macrophage function, preferentially accumulates in atherosclerotic lesions, reduces plaque burden, and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Liquid gallium (Ga) acts as a catalytic center for nitric oxide (NO) generation within a tannic acid–zirconium metal–phenolic network coating. Stabilized Ga nanoparticles catalyze S‐nitrosothiol decomposition through surface electron transfer, enabling controlled NO production, enhancing endothelial biocompatibility, and providing antioxidant and anti ...

Role of macrophage sialoadhesin in host defense against the sialylated pathogen group B Streptococcus [PDF]
, 2014 Several bacterial pathogens decorate their surfaces with sialic acid (Sia) residues within cell wall components or capsular exopolysaccharides. Sialic acid expression can promote bacterial virulence by blocking complement activation or by engagement of ...

A Drug‐Gated, Modular STAb‐T Immunotherapy With External Control
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Engineered STAb‐TON cells act as programmable living factories that continuously secrete inactive antibody modules, which assemble extracellularly into a functional T cell engager only upon small‐molecule administration. This externally controlled platform enables reversible, on‐demand regulation of antitumor immunity, establishing a new paradigm for ...

Genome analysis of a highly virulent serotype 1 strain of streptococcus pneumoniae from West Africa [PDF]
, 2012 Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of pneumonia, meningitis, and bacteremia, estimated to cause 2 million deaths annually. The majority of pneumococcal mortality occurs in developing countries, with serotype 1 a leading cause in these areas.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Streptococcal mannose phosphotransferase system component IID (Man‐PTSIID) is identified as a novel RANK‐binding osteoclastogenic factor. By directly binding to RANK and activating NF‐κB independently of TLR2, Man‐PTSIID drives osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory bone destruction, uncovering an unexpected microbial mechanism underlying streptococcal ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We present a foldamer strategy to downsize the histone H3‐H4 quaternary structure into high‐affinity, medium‐sized binders (∼2 kDa) for the histone chaperone ASF1. Our peptide‐oligourea chimeras, designed through structure‐guided optimization and foldamer chemistry, recapitulate the natural H3‐H4 dimer binding mode while demonstrating plasma stability ...

Neutrophil and lymphocyte responses to oral Streptococcus in Adamantiades-Behcet's disease [PDF]
, 2005 Immune reactions against microorganisms play an important pathogenic role in Adamantiades-Behçet’s disease (ABD). We had previously obtained Streptococcus sanguinis (strain BD113-20) isolated from the oral cavity of patients with ABD.
