Bioenergetic Materials for Tissue Regeneration: Modulating Metabolism to Promote Cellular Anabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioenergetic materials (BEMs) modulate cellular metabolism to promote tissue regeneration. Their principal mechanisms of action include metabolic substrate supplementation, metabolic enzyme modulation, organelle transfer, electrical current regulation, redox homeostasis modulation, and oxygen tension modulation.

Host Defense Peptides in Brief

Experimental and Applied Biomedical Research (EABR)
Abstract Host defense peptides (HDPs) are an indispensable part of innate immunity. These multifunctional peptides, immanent in all living organisms, have diverse roles in host defense due to their antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties.

Regulation of the Intestinal Barrier Function by Host Defense Peptides

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2015
Intestinal barrier function is achieved primarily through regulating the synthesis of mucins and tight junction (TJ) proteins, which are critical for maintaining optimal gut health and animal performance. An aberrant expression of TJ proteins results in increased paracellular permeability, leading to intestinal and systemic disorders.

AI‐Designed TREM1‐Targeted LYTAC Nanoparticles Reprogram the Neuroimmune Microenvironment in Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
AI‐enabled de novo design of a TREM1 binder, integrated into a BBB‐crossing and macrophage‐targeted nanoplatform, enables TREM1 degradation and attenuates neuroinflammation, thereby promoting neuroprotection and tissue repair after traumatic brain injury. ABSTRACT Secondary neuroinflammation drives progressive damage after traumatic brain injury (TBI),

Non‐Coding Transcripts From Diversified Members of IgLec Family Protect Antiviral Effectors From Viral miRNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The IgLec gene family generates both protein‐coding antiviral effectors and non‐coding transcripts. Upon viral infection, non‐coding transcripts are preferentially targeted by viral miR‐N48, thereby buffering protein‐coding isoforms from repression. Depletion of these decoy transcripts compromises antiviral defense, revealing a non‐coding RNA‐mediated ...

LL-37: Structures, Antimicrobial Activity, and Influence on Amyloid-Related Diseases

Biomolecules
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), as well as host defense peptides (HDPs), constitute the first line of defense as part of the innate immune system. Humans are known to express antimicrobial precursor proteins, which are further processed to generate AMPs ...

Saliva-Derived Host Defense Peptides Histatin1 and LL-37 Increase Secretion of Antimicrobial Skin and Oral Mucosa Chemokine CCL20 in an IL-1α-Independent Manner

Journal of Immunology Research, 2017
Even though skin and oral mucosae are continuously in contact with commensal and opportunistic microorganisms, they generally remain healthy and uninflamed.

Sarbecoviruses Suppress Innate Immunity by Recruiting PPM1A to Modulate STAT2 and ORF9b Phosphorylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sarbecovirus ORF9b recruits host phosphatase PPM1A to suppress innate immunity through dual mechanisms. PPM1A directly dephosphorylates ORF9b to sustain its activity and indirectly downregulates STAT2 phosphorylation to impair interferon signaling. Pharmacological inhibition of PPM1A restores antiviral responses and limits sarbecovirus replication ...

Blue Light Receptor PHR2‐Mediated Spectrum Antiviral Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Blue light suppresses RBSDV through the blue‐light receptor ZmPHR2, which interacts with ZmISP in chloroplasts to trigger ROS burst and antiviral defense. The viral effector P6 enhances ZmPHR2–ZmISP interaction, alters their distribution, and suppresses ROS.

Decoding Biomolecular Phase Separation: From Physiological Roles to Pathological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Biomaterials Design

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically elaborates on the mechanisms underlying physiological regulation and pathological dysregulation of biomolecular phase separation. It also summarizes advances in phase‑separation‑targeted therapeutic strategies and the design of functional biomaterials inspired by this process.
