A biomimetic doppelgänger nanosystem neutralizes extracellular inflammatory cytokines and silences intracellular pyroptosis, reprogramming pathogenic macrophages to attenuate both joint and spine degeneration. ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) and intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) are debilitating musculoskeletal disorders driven by shared ...

Targeted protein degradation is often limited by the scarcity of usable E3 ligases. Herein, we report the first small‐molecule GPX4 degraders that incorporate either electrophilic warheads or a minimal azide group as an E3 recruitment ligand. The azide‐based degrader DK‐5070 effectively drives potent GPX4 degradation; mechanistic studies reveal that ...

A mechanically activated SynNotch reporter platform enables detection of force transmission through receptors as they mediate immune cell interactions. Targeting CD40 on B cells and TCR on T cells records force‐induced reporter activation across 2D coculture, 3D organoid, and implanted in mice, which also reveal force‐amplification of immune receptor ...

Mitochondria-Plasma Membrane Contact Sites: Emerging Regulators of Mitochondrial Form and Function
Sites of close apposition between organelles, known as membrane contact sites (MCSs), are critical regulators of organelle function. Mitochondria form elaborate reticular networks that perform essential metabolic and signaling functions.

An enzyme–nitric oxide (NO) co‐regulatory strategy reprograms pathological extracellular matrix (ECM)–fibroblast crosstalk in hypertrophic scars. Enzymatic degradation of pre‐existing ECM relieves aberrant mechanical cues, while NO‐mediated fibroblast phenotypic modulation restrains excessive collagen synthesis.

Low‐Tg HEMs are designed to improve membrane‐electrode adhesion by promoting intimate contact with catalyst layers. After hydration, the membrane develops a hydrogel‐like network that supports water uptake and ion transport while retaining mechanical robustness.

Macrophage RSAD2 dually regulates CMPK2—the rate‐limiting enzyme for mitochondrial DNA synthesis—by suppressing its ubiquitination and promoting its phosphorylation via Csnk2a2 recruitment. This amplifies mtDNA production, which simultaneously activates a cGAS‐STING‐IRF3‐RSAD2 feedforward loop and the NLRP3 inflammasome, driving a self‐sustaining ...
