Polystyrene Nanoplastics Drive β‐Cell Dedifferentiation Through Dendritic Cell‐Intrinsic MHC‐I‐Dependent Inflammatory Crosstalk

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polystyrene nanoplastics disrupt pancreatic immune–endocrine homeostasis by promoting MHC‐I‐associated dendritic cell activation and inflammatory crosstalk with β cells. This immune remodeling drives β‐cell dedifferentiation, impairs insulin secretion, and aggravates metabolic dysfunction, revealing a previously unrecognized immunometabolic mechanism ...

Tumor Exposomics: A New Paradigm for Individualized Continuous Exposure Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor exposomics integrates continuous monitoring of environmental exposures, endogenous biological responses, and behavioral factors within a unified temporal framework. By combining multimodal sensing technologies with AI‐enabled causal modeling, this emerging paradigm reconstructs exposure‐damage trajectories and supports individualized dynamic risk

Single‐Cell Profiling Reveals Clonally Expanded CX3CR1+ T Cells in Anti‐NMDA Receptor Encephalitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CX3CR1+ T cells are associated with peripheral and central immune alterations in anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (NMDAR‐E). They show potential responsiveness to GluN1 (NR1) peptides, potential interactions with peripheral B cells, clonal expansion, increased CD137/CD154 expression, and inflammatory cytokine production. Their preferential cerebrospinal

Metabolic Signatures for Liver Cancer Diagnosis and Mechanistic Insights: A Large‐Scale, Multicenter Study

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A large‐scale multicenter serum metabolomics study (13 centers, n = 2,149) identified a 9‐metabolite + AFP diagnostic signature for liver cancer (AUC = 0.93). Among the signature, nicotinamide (NAM) was validated as an oncometabolite: NAM enhances NAD+ synthesis, activating SIRT1 to deacetylate and stabilize HIF1α, thereby driving glycolysis, MAPK ...

Splenic Tropism and Spleen‐Modulated Systemic Inflammation in Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In chronic Plasmodium vivax (Pv) infection, the spleen accounts for over 98% of total‐body parasite biomass. Whether splenic tropism also occurs in acute infection and how the spleen influences pathogenesis have not been systematically explored. In Papua, Indonesia, we compared clinical and hematology data in 24 spleen‐intact and 25 previously
