Engineered antibody‐like proteins block the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein from binding to host receptors and suppress immune overactivation through an MBL‐based scaffold. These dual‐function proteins effectively alleviate inflammation, complement activation, and lung injury, offering a promising therapeutic strategy against severe COVID‐19 and its ...

Repositioning Antimicrobial Peptides Against WHO‐Priority Fungi
The growing burden of drug‐resistant fungal infections, driven by pathogens such as Candida auris, Cryptococcus neoformans, and Aspergillus fumigatus, underscores the urgent need for novel antifungal therapies. This review explores antimicrobial peptides as promising agents with membrane‐disruptive activity, immunomodulatory properties, and delivery ...

Beta-mannans are insoluble plant polysaccharides with beta-1,4-linked mannose as the backbone. We used three forms of this polysaccharide, namely, pure mannan, glucomannan, and galactomannan, to enrich haloarchaea, which have the ability to utilize ...

Objective JAK inhibition (JAKi) is effective in seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SpA) spectrum disorders, but Tyk2 inhibition failed in SpA spectrum ulcerative colitis, and tofacitinib showed minimal benefit in Crohn disease, which highlights the complex role for JAK/STAT signaling in different inflammatory processes.

This study explores how antigen peptides and sugar chains affect the efficacy of glyco‐nanovaccines (iGN) in cancer immunotherapy. We show that antigen peptides, rather than sugar chains, are key to nanoparticle uptake and immune activation, with sialic acid‐modified iGN showing similar anti‐cancer efficacy to α‐mannose‐modified iGN in a mouse model ...
