Repurposing a Small Molecule Plant Hormone as a Tunable ON‐Switch for CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By engineering a receptor system integrating the plant auxin receptor AFB1 with its co‐receptor IAA7, we enable ligand‐dependent interactions triggered by the plant hormone auxins. This design allows rapid, reversible, and dose‐dependent T cell activation, resulting in potent cytotoxicity against B‐cell lymphoma in vitro and in vivo.

F‐Type Pyocin Versus Phage λ Tail: Conserved Hub, Divergent Fibers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Near‐atomic cryo‐EM structures of a Gram‐negative F‐type pyocin reveal a conserved tail tip architecture shared with bacteriophage λ together with a previously unrecognized side‐fiber attachment mode. These findings provide new insight into tailocin assembly and host recognition and establish a structural framework for engineering precision ...

Dual‐Responsive Hydrogels Integrate Bioelectrical Stimulation and Piezo‐Photocatalysis for Regenerative Treatment of Infected Wounds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A wireless, dual‐responsive hydrogel (PVA/(PVDF‐TrFE)/BiOClBr@PDA) is developed to promote efficient regeneration of infected wounds by integrating piezoelectric stimulation with piezo‐photocatalytic pathways. Under simultaneous light and ultrasonic stimulation, the hydrogel generates therapeutic electrical cues and reactive oxygen species, disrupting ...

Tailored Covalent Organic Frameworks Enable the Encapsulation of Living Cells to Produce Rare Ginsenoside

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reports the in situ fabrication of Escherichia coli@covalent organic frameworks (E. coli@COFs) in phosphate‐buffered saline. The COFs form an exoskeleton on E. coli, protecting intracellular β‐glucosidase (Ssbgl) while enhancing mass transfer.

Convergence of Plasmid‐Mediated tmexCD‐toprJ With Critical Resistance Genes Fuels Spread of Multidrug Resistant Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Global dissemination of tmexCD‐toprJ across bacterial hosts and ecological niches is accompanied by its convergence with blaKPC, blaNDM, and mcr on mobile plasmids. Recombination and acquisition of resistance modules generate distinct multidrug resistant plasmid architectures, facilitating the emergence and spread of high‐risk bacterial populations ...
