A Dual‐Targeting T6SS DNase Drives Bacterial Antagonism and Eukaryotic Apoptosis via the cGAS‐STING‐TNF Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Neutrophil‐Mimicking Nanomedicine Eliminates Tumor Intracellular Bacteria and Enhances Chemotherapy on Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) enrichment has been identified in colorectal cancer and its liver metastases. This study develops neutrophil‐mimicking nanoparticles with multiple targeting capabilities encapsulating metronidazole and oxaliplatin for antibacterial and anticancer purposes. This approach reverses the epithelial mesenchymal transition process

Gut microbiota functions: metabolism of nutrients and other food components

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Nutrition, 2017
The diverse microbial community that inhabits the human gut has an extensive metabolic repertoire that is distinct from, but complements the activity of mammalian enzymes in the liver and gut mucosa and includes functions essential for host digestion. As

Akkermansia Muciniphila Alleviates Severe Acute Pancreatitis via Amuc1409‐Ube2k‐Foxp3 Axis in Regulatory T Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Akkermansia depletion correlates with acute pancreatitis (AP) severity. A. muciniphila and its protein Amuc_1409 mitigate pancreatic/systemic inflammation by expanding Tregs and IL‐10. Mechanistically, Amuc_1409 binds Ube2k, inhibiting Foxp3 ubiquitination to stabilize Treg differentiation and IL‐10 production, countering SAP‐induced SIRS/CARS ...

Improvement of Asia-Pacific colorectal screening score and evaluation of its use combined with fecal immunochemical test

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background The Asia-Pacific Colorectal Screening (APCS) score is effective to screen high-risk groups of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN) patients but needs revising and can be combined with the fecal immunochemical test (FIT).

Microbial Biosensor for Sensing and Treatment of Intestinal Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The engineered calprotectin biosensor detects gut inflammation, processes the signal through genetic regulation, and responds by expressing the reporter sfGFP and the therapeutic protein secIL10. This dual functionality enables the engineered biosensor not only to sense but also to mitigate gut inflammation, highlighting its potential for disease ...

Combing fecal microbial community data to identify consistent obesity-specific microbial signatures and shared metabolic pathways

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Obesity is associated with altered gut microbiome composition but data across different populations remain inconsistent. We meta-analyzed publicly available 16S-rRNA sequence datasets from 18 different studies and identified differentially ...
