Microblasting Wound Dressings Mechanically Disrupt Polymicrobial Biofilms to Enhance Healing in Treatment‐Resistant Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Treatment‐resistant wounds caused by polymicrobial biofilms are refractory to conventional therapies due to the dense extracellular matrices. We developed μBLAST, a microblasting wound dressing that combines MnO2‐doped biosilica and a H2O2‐releasing mesh to generate localized oxygen microbubbles that mechanically disrupt biofilms.

PPP1R15A-mediated dephosphorylation of eIF2α is unaffected by Sephin1 or Guanabenz

eLife, 2017
Dephosphorylation of translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2α) terminates signalling in the mammalian integrated stress response (ISR) and has emerged as a promising target for modifying the course of protein misfolding diseases.

Mechanical Flexibility Enables DNA Origami to Overcome Steric Confinement in Mucus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Guanidinylated Polymyxins as Outer Membrane Permeabilizers Capable of Potentiating Rifampicin, Erythromycin, Ceftazidime and Aztreonam against Gram-Negative Bacteria

Antibiotics, 2022
Polymyxins are considered a last-line treatment against infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria. In addition to their use as a potent antibiotic, polymyxins have also been utilized as outer membrane (OM) permeabilizers ...

Controlled Peptide Capture and Release in 3D‐Printed Multimaterial Microstructures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Two‐photon laser printing of 3D microstructures using a peptide‐containing ink is shown. The microstructures allow for controlled capture and release of target peptides through coiled‐coil interaction with the printed peptide inside the material. Based on these properties, orthogonal capture and stimuli‐mediated release possibilities inside printed ...

In‐Situ Constructed Cations for 2D/3D Perovskite Heterostructure for Stable and Efficient Photovoltaics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An in‐situ spacer‐cation construction strategy is developed by inducing strong hydrogen bonding between n‐hexyl phosphonic acid (HPA) and FA+, forming a stable N‐type 2D/3D perovskite heterostructure. This approach suppressed defect formation, promoted electron transport, and improved intrinsic stability, delivering 26.32% PCE, excellent operational ...

A Phosphorylation‐Induced Micellization Switch in the Low‐Complexity Domain of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phosphorylation of TAR DNA‐binding protein's 43 kDa (TDP‐43) low‐complexity domain by casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) acts as a molecular switch, redirecting its self‐assembly from macroscopic phase separation toward finite‐sized, spherical block‐copolymer micelles of ∼30 nm.

Cyclic guanidines. VI. Synthesis of hypoglycemic tricyclic guanidines.

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1979
Synthesis of linear and angular tricyclic guanidine derivatives, imidazo- or pyrimido-[2, 1-b]- or [1, 2-a] quinazoline derivatives, is described. Cyclization of 2-(ω-chloroalkyl)-4-phenyl-3, 4-dihydroquinazolines (9) gave two isomers and their isolation was troublesome.

An Aggregation‐Induced Polymerization Poly(Disulfide)‐Drug Nanoplatform for Autoimmune Uveitis Therapy via Inhibiting the cGAS‐STING Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cationic poly(disulfide)‐drug nanoplatform (LA/DexP) was developed to treat experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). With potent blood‐retinal barrier penetrability, LA/DexP releases DSP in response to high ROS and scavenges cfDNA to inhibit the cGAS‐STING signaling pathway.
