Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study developed a dynamic DNA nano‐antioxidant (DDN) for Galectin‐3 siRNA delivery, specifically targeting hepatic macrophages to suppress ROS‐driven fibrosis. DDN enhanced hepatic accumulation, restored NRF2 signaling, and attenuated oxidative stress, collagen deposition, and fibrotic progression in a CCl4‐induced cirrhosis model, demonstrating ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Measuring cell adhesion forces with the atomic force microscope at the molecular level [PDF]
, 2002 In the past 25 years many techniques have been developed to characterize cell adhesion and to quantify adhesion forces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to measure forces in the pico-newton range, an experimental technique known as force ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.By profiling the spatiotemporal hepatic landscape of CHB mouse models, the originally peri‐portal localized KCs migrated to the peri‐central in a CXCL9‐CXCR3‐dependent manner, facilitating their interaction with HBV+ hepatocytes. The interaction promoted LMD in KCs through ASGR1‐induced LXRα degradation, which, in turn, induced CSC formation via Stat3 ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Segatella copri is a structurally unique, immunomodulatory glycoconjugate. Combining mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and cytometry by time‐of‐flight (CyTOF), we uncover a rough‐type LPS with reduced TLR4 agonism and selective monocyte effects, further highlighting the key role of LPS chemistry ...

Sensing ligand binding to a clinically relevant lectin by tryptophan fluorescence anisotropy [PDF]
, 2011 Increasing insights into the involvement of endogenous lectins in disease processes fuel the interest to develop potent inhibitors. As a consequence, robust assay procedures are required. Due to their activity as adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors this

Use of lectins in immunohematology
Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2016 Lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins present in seeds of many plants, especially corals and beans, in fungi and bacteria, and in animals. Apart from their hemagglutinating property, a wide range of functions have been attributed to them. Their importance in the area of immunohematology is immense. They are used to detect specific red cell antigens,

Enhanced Single‐Particle Upconversion Imaging via Energy Migration Boosting
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A core‐shell‐shell Yb3⁺/Er3⁺ UCNP architecture is engineered to balance energy migration and back energy transfer, yielding more than a tenfold enhancement in single‐particle brightness. Leveraging these optimized probes, it achieves long‐term, high‐resolution single‐particle tracking in live neurons, uncovering coordinated transport mechanisms of ...

MUC15 Ectodomain Architecture Regulates Integrin Clustering to Control Cancer Metastasis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study uncovers a size‐dependent adhesion paradigm, demonstrating that the glycocalyx protein MUC15 suppresses pancreatic cancer progression by attenuating integrin activation, focal adhesion assembly, and YAP mechanotransduction. Integrating computational modeling and experimental validation, the work reveals a mechanical mechanism by which MUC15 ...
