Compact 9dBEs Enable Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Mammalian Cells and In Vivo
As a compact type II‐D system, the Cas9d‐based platform holds great potential for in vivo applications. Through rational engineering, its derived base editors (9dBEs) enable efficient disease modeling while facilitating single‐vector AAV delivery for in vivo genome editing. These miniature tools offer a robust strategy for basic research and biomedical

Magnetic Water Cleaning of Estrogens via Tight yet Dynamic Binding to Nanoparticles
Micropollution is one of the big challenges humanity faces with estrogen hormones being emerging pollutants of concern. Here, a supramolecular design strategy is presented that generates a simple nano‐adsorbent material to magnetically remove low‐concentrated estrogens from water.

Insights Into the Nature of Quantum Emitters in Electron‐Irradiated Hexagonal Boron Nitride
Hyperspectral imaging is used to identify quantum emitters hosted by the 2D material hexagonal boron nitride. By selecting specific emission wavelengths, one can distinguish individual emitters from ensembles and gain important insights into the atomic structure of these emitters.

Longitudinal multifrequency magnetic resonance elastography (mMRE) performed on a clinical 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging system reveals early biomechanical alterations during liver tumor progression in a translational VX2 model. Changes in tumor stiffness and viscosity precede diffusion‐related alterations and are associated with extracellular ...

The GPX3‐VCAM1 Axis Gates Pro‐Fibrotic Tubule Cell Fate in Hyperuricemic Nephropathy
Hyperuricemia induces NLRP3 inflammasome signaling activation and downregulation of GPX3 in proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to oxidative stress–driven VCAM1 upregulation, emergence of pro‐fibrotic proximal tubule cells, macrophage recruitment, and renal fibrosis.

CRISPR and Gene Augmentation Rescue Trabecular Meshwork Dysfunction in iPSC Models of Lowe Syndrome
By modeling Lowe syndrome using patient‐derived iPSCs, this study establishes a human disease model that faithfully recapitulates OCRL deficiency‐associated ciliary and cytoskeletal defects. The model enables evaluation of both mutation‐agnostic DNA augmentation and CRISPR‐mediated mutation correction strategies, both of which restore OCRL function and
