Divergent Roles of mGlu2 and mGlu3 Receptors in Amyloid‐β Production and Cognitive Dysfunctions in Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

Concurrently Achieving 4.6 W/M2 and 120,000 Cyclability Enabled by Extendable Swing Arms in Rotational Triboelectric Nanogenerator

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rotational energy harvesting device that successfully reconciles high power density with mechanical durability through a hybrid sliding‐and‐bouncing kinematic mechanism is reported. The success reported in our paper includes addressing a dilemma where enhanced electrical output comes at the cost of increased friction and wear, limiting the practical ...

Nucleic Acid Therapeutics for “Undruggable” Cancer Targets: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Prospects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nucleic acid therapeutics bypass the structural limitations of conventional drugs by targeting mRNA rather than proteins. This review examines how antisense oligonucleotides, siRNAs, miRNAs, aptamers, and mRNA vaccines intervene against historically undruggable oncoproteins including Ras, MYC, and p53, highlighting mechanistic advances, delivery ...

Irreversible Electroporation of Liver Tumors

, 2017
The liver is a well-known site for tumors of benign as well as malignant origin. In the Western world, the most frequent hepatic malignancies encountered are liver metastases, especially but not solely from colorectal origin. Primary liver tumors, or the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), more frequently develop in people from Asian and Mediterranean ...

Cavity Microelectrode Arrays for Electrical Recordings From Neurons

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are used to study electrophysiological activity. However, their signals are small with high noise. By adding a 100‐nanometer‐high cavity above the electrode, which reduces impedance without affecting resolution, we improve signal quality.

Discovery of CRBN‐based molecular glue degraders targeting WIZ transcription factor

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This work reports the discovery of 9l, a novel cereblon‐based molecular glue degrader which targets the WIZ transcription factor. Compound 9l facilitates WIZ‐CRBN ternary complex formation to degrade WIZ, subsequently inducing γ‐globin expression in HUDEP‐2 cells and highlighting its potential as a sickle cell disease therapy.

The State of Irreversible Electroporation in Interventional Oncology [PDF]

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2014
A new ablation modality, irreversible electroporation (IRE), has been of increasing interest in interventional radiology. Its nonthermal mechanism of action of killing tumor cells allows physicians the ability to ablate tumors in areas previously contraindicated for thermal ablation. This article reviews the current published clinical outcomes, imaging
