Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study investigates the M13 bacteriophage as a biomimetic nanovector capable of crossing in vitro models of the blood–brain barrier. By exploiting peculiar transcellular pathways, M13 avoids lysosomal degradation and preserves its structural integrity and functionality.

Atomic Layer Deposition Processes: Versatile Platforms for Engineering ZnO‐Chitosan Biointerfaces
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Vapour phase metalation (VPM), multiplied pulsed vapour phase infiltration (MPI), and O2 plasma‑enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) tailor Zn–chitosan (Zn‑CS) films. PEALD improves wettability and biocompatibility. MPI enhances semiconductor behavior. Antiseptic selectivity: VPM → E. coli; MPI → H. pylori.

Bacteriophages as Biotechnological Tools
Viruses, 2023 Bacteriophages are ubiquitous organisms that can be specific to one or multiple strains of hosts, in addition to being the most abundant entities on the planet. It is estimated that they exceed ten times the total number of bacteria.

Biosynthesis of Sciadonic Acid Derived from Gymnosperms with Anti‐Colitis Activity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study establishes an efficient Yarrowia lipolytica platform for unusual sciadonic acid (SCA) production and assess the anti‐colitis efficacy in mice of SCA, supporting its potential as a novel therapeutic lipid. ABSTRACT Sciadonic acid (SCA), Δ5‐unsaturated fatty acid with anti‐inflammatory and lipid‐regulatory properties, is predominantly derived

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A unique mechanism of catalytic bias regulated by diaphorase‐like subunit in formate dehydrogenase from Rhodobacter aestuarii is revealed. The diaphorase‐like subunit functions act as a biological “voltage rheostat” that controls the slow release of NADH to regulate redox balance, biasing the enzyme's catalytic preference toward CO2 reduction over ...

Shotgun Metagenomic Profiling of the Gut Virome in Prodromal and Confirmed Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.We conducted a nested case‐control study within the Nurses’ Health Study and the Health Professionals Follow‐up Study to examine the role of the gut virome (GV) in Parkinson's disease (PD). We applied a novel metagenomic virome profiling approach, Bioinformatic Application for Quantification and Labeling of Viral taxonomy (BAQLaVa), to prospectively ...
