A Micropeptide Component of the OGDH Complex Modulates ATP Production in the TCA Cycle
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified a mitochondrial micropeptide encoded by a non‐canonical open reading frame (alt‐ORF) within the CTSB gene. This micropeptide named APPM (ATP production‐promoting micropeptide) is a novel component of the OGDHc complex in the TCA cycle. APPM localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and directly binds to OGDH, the E1 subunit of

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

OsCPK12‐OsATPD1 Module Regulates Photosynthetic Acclimation to Light Stress in Rice
Advanced Science, EarlyView.OsCPK12 interacts and phosphorylates OsAtpD1 at Ser8 in its transit peptide. This phosphorylation promote its chloroplast translocation, thereby maintaining ATP synthase activity and proton gradient (ΔpH) homeostasis and regulating photosynthetic acclimation, photoprotection, and repair under light stress.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.As a novel adipose‐derived neurotrophic factor, Follistatin‐like 1 is endocytosed by sympathetic neurons primarily via tropomyosin‐related kinase B. This process promotes sympathetic innervation in adipose tissue and norepinephrine release, leading to white adipose tissue browning, enhanced thermogenesis, and anti‐obesity effects in mice.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Here, we report a novel NIR fluorescent PROTAC platform that enables real‐time imaging and targeted degradation of Alzheimer's p‐Tau. Our lead compound effectively clears p‐Tau, reduces APP/Aβ, and alleviates cognitive deficits in AD mice. This work demonstrates a theranostic strategy for visualizing degradation and developing next‐generation AD ...

Intelligent Programmable Membrane Nanosponge for Early Virus Blocking
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A smart programmable nanosponge (ACNPs) displays high‐density viral receptors on its membrane and encapsulates fusion inhibitors to capture virions at the infection source through competitive binding and blocks their entry through protease inhibition for ultra‐early cascade interception. This modular, mucus‐penetrating platform shifts antiviral defence

Portopulmonary hypertension practice patterns after liver transplantation
Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) is a type of pulmonary arterial hypertension occurring exclusively in those with portal hypertensive liver disease. Liver transplantation (LT) can significantly improve outcomes. Current guidelines counsel against immediate adjustments to targeted therapy after LT and suggest routine echocardiography as ...
