New Zealand glowworm (Arachnocampa luminosa) bioluminescence is produced by a firefly-like luciferase but an entirely new luciferin

Scientific Reports, 2018
The New Zealand glowworm, Arachnocampa luminosa, is well-known for displays of blue-green bioluminescence, but details of its bioluminescent chemistry have been elusive.

GNL3 Orchestrates AR Transcriptional Programs to Drive Castration‐Resistant Prostate Cancer and Immune Evasion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GNL3 is a novel AR coregulator with dual coactivator and corepressor functions in prostate cancer (PCa). Our study uncovers a previously unrecognized mechanism by which the AR transcriptional complex integrates oncogenic signaling and immune suppression.

Oral Streptococcus salivarius Couples Neutrophil IRGM1 Signaling to NET Formation and Colorectal Cancer Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The oral bacterium Streptococcus salivarius promotes colorectal cancer metastasis by inducing neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation. Mechanistically, IRGM1–IQGAP1 interaction activates Wnt5a–PI3K/AKT signaling in neutrophils, driving NET‐mediated tumor progression.

Localized NF‐κB Inhibition Reduces Lipid Nanoparticle‐Associated Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) activate NF‐κB and provoke inflammation that limits therapeutic delivery. By encapsulating selective NF‐κB inhibitors within LNPs, localized suppression of inflammatory signaling is achieved without compromising mRNA expression.

Engineered Small Extracellular Vesicles Targeting Tumor‐Associated Endothelial Cells to Effectively Remodel the Glioma Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed a novel drug delivery platform that overcomes the blood‐brain barrier in glioblastoma. By fusing IGFBP7 with small extracellular vesicles, the platform specifically targets tumor vasculature. It effectively delivers temozolomide, suppressing tumor growth at low doses.

Ascites circRNA ASCOR Drives Platinum Resistance of High‐Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer by Facilitating RPA1 Nuclear Translocation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is plagued by platinum resistance, with malignant ascites closely linked to poor outcomes. Here, we identify ASCOR, a circRNA enriched in ascites small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from platinum‐resistant HGSOC patients, as a predictor of poor survival. ASCOR enhances platinum resistance in vitro and in vivo

Decoding the Cardiac Immune Microenvironment and Fibroblast Crosstalk in Radiotherapy Combined with Immunotherapy‐Induced Cardiac Fibrosis Based on Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study highlights that radioimmunotherapy drives crosstalk between fibroblasts and immune cells (especially macrophages) in the cardiac microenvironment, with IL‐6 as the key mediator, and tocilizumab alleviates cardiac fibrosis by targeting this interplay.
