Porphyrin‐Based Porous Materials for Antibacterial Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Porphyrin‐based porous materials have excellent photophysical properties and tunable structures for high‐efficiency antibacterial therapy. This review comprehensively discusses the structural design strategies and synthetic pathways of the four main types of porphyrin‐based porous materials, summarizes their cross‐domain antimicrobial applications, and

Structural Variants in the Human Genome Associated With Gut Microbiome and Blood Metabolic Traits With Potential Causal Links

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on a multi‐omics cohort of 2002 individuals comprising high‐depth whole‐genome and metagenomic sequencing data, blood metabolites, and detailed questionnaires, we identified 138 859 high‐confidence SVs, uncovering 36 significant SV–microbiome associations and 48 SV–blood metabolite associations.

Mn/Zn Bimetallic MOF‐Integrated Hydrogel Alleviates Excessive Mitochondrial Fission in BMSCs to Promote Osteoporotic Jawbone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and chronic inflammation impair bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), contributing to poor healing in osteoporotic jawbone defect. The gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel loaded with manganese‐doped zeolitic imidazolate framework (Mn‐ZIF‐8@GelMA) promotes regeneration through redox regulation and ...

A Chiral Virus‐Like Nanoplatform That Broadly Mediates Antibiotic Delivery to the Brain for Bacterial Meningitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chiral virus‐mimicking mesoporous silica nanostructures (CVSNs) efficiently transport diverse antibiotics across the blood–brain barrier (BBB) into brain parenchyma and cerebrospinal fluid. By enhancing delivery to microglia and astrocytes, CVSNs improve antibiotic bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy against both Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive ...

Molecular Basis of NPY Recognition and Ligand Selectivity at the Neuropeptide Y5 Receptor

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Here, we present the first active structure of the neuropeptide Y5 receptor (NPY5R) in complex with its endogenous ligand NPY and the Gi1 protein. The cryo‐electron microscopy structure, validated by extensive mutagenesis studies, gives important insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying ligand binding and receptor activation.

A Water Compartment Cell Culture Lid Enables Stable Longitudinal Recording of Neuronal Networks In Vitro

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cell culture lid with an integrated water compartment eliminates evaporation from microelectrode arrays while preserving gas exchange. Freed from the osmotic drift and repeated medium exchanges that disturb conventional recordings, patterned human iPSC‐derived neuronal networks are recorded continuously for five weeks. Single‐spike resolution reveals

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth Following Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery: Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) has recently gained increasing attention as a potential cause of postoperative gastrointestinal symptoms following gastrointestinal cancer surgery. Surgical procedures can disrupt normal gastrointestinal physiology through anatomical reconstruction, impaired motility, reduced gastric acid secretion,

Implantable Systems for Cardiovascular Treatment and Monitoring: Comparative Insights From Intracardiovascular and Extracardiovascular Technologies

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A unifying device–cardiovascular interface framework is presented to classify implantable cardiovascular technologies as intracardiovascular blood‐contacting systems or extracardiovascular tissue‐only and blood‐handling architectures. Cross‐class comparison across shared semiquantitative criteria, including blood‐contact burden, biomimicry ...
