Conformational switching within dynamic oligomers underpins toxic gain-of-function by diabetes-associated amyloid

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Toxic gain-of-function by islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) is thought to be mediated by membrane poration. Here the authors develop diluted-FRET to show that changes in pore structure correlate with onset of toxicity inside insulin secreting cells.

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Adenosine triphosphate is co-secreted with glucagon-like peptide-1 to modulate intestinal enterocytes and afferent neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is released from intestinal L-cells following nutrient uptake and enhances insulin release as well as promotes satiety. Here, the authors demonstrate that GLP-1 secreting cells release ATP and that this stimulates nodose ...

Zinc‐Coordinated Trienzyme Nanogel Cascade Therapy for Accelerated Post‐Pancreatectomy Cutaneous Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A zinc‐coordinated nanogel assembly is reported that co‐delivers three enzymes to regulate glucose, oxidative stress, and oxygen levels. This system mimics natural enzyme cascades to reprogram the wound environment after pancreatectomy. In a post‐pancreatectomy mouse model, it accelerates healing by reducing infection, promoting blood vessel growth ...

Liquiritin Exerts a Dual Effect on BMSCs Osteogenic Differentiation and Fracture Healing by Activating the ERK/JNK Pathway and Providing Antioxidant Protection

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Liquiritin enhances the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and promotes fracture healing through the activation of the ERK/JNK signaling pathway and by exerting antioxidant protective effects. Abstract Liquiritin, a flavonoid from Glycyrrhiza uralensis L., has diverse pharmacological properties, but its impact on fracture healing is unexplored.
