An Engineered HR1‐Stem Helix‐HR2 Trimeric Platform for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Coronavirus Vaccines

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sun et al. report a self‐assembling trimeric subunit vaccine platform termed RHS, which integrates the JN.1 receptor‐binding domain (RBD) with the heptad repeat 1 (HR1), stem helix (SH), and heptad repeat 2 (HR2) regions. The SARS‐CoV‐2 RHS vaccine elicits variant‐reactive RBD‐specific antibodies and cross‐reactive SH‐specific antibodies against ...

Dual pKa Lipid Nanoparticles for Lung‐tropic mRNA Delivery and pH‐Programmed Endosomal Escape

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid nanoparticles’ bottleneck lies in low endosomal escape efficiency and liver‐dominant delivery after intravenous administration. To overcome these limitations, we present a stepwise pH‐programmed lipid nanoparticle system enabled by our newly synthesized ionizable lipid.

The Adipose‐Sympathetic Nerve Crosstalk: FSTL1 as an Adipocyte‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor for WAT Browning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As a novel adipose‐derived neurotrophic factor, Follistatin‐like 1 is endocytosed by sympathetic neurons primarily via tropomyosin‐related kinase B. This process promotes sympathetic innervation in adipose tissue and norepinephrine release, leading to white adipose tissue browning, enhanced thermogenesis, and anti‐obesity effects in mice.

Arrayed Magnetic Accelerator Synergistically Enhances Orthodontic Tooth Movement via Microtubule Assembly‐Mediated Periodontal Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical orthodontic treatment for malocclusion is limited by slow remodeling and risks due to poor biomechanical sensing. This study shows that static magnetic fields (SMFs) enhance mechanical sensation in periodontal ligament cells, promoting inflammation and osteoclast activity.

Force‐Electric Nanotentacles of Tantalum Implant Accelerate Cellular Energy Metabolism/Crosstalk for Immunomodulation‐Vascularized Bone Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic force‐electric nanotentacle‐enabled tantalum (Ta) implant with surface‐nanostructured LiTaO3 (n‐LiTaO3) was first developed via laser nanofabrication combined with Li+‐induced in situ reaction, enabling the transduction of ultrasound into bioelectrical cues.
