Viruses and Autoimmunity: A Review on the Potential Interaction and Molecular Mechanisms

Viruses, 2019
For a long time, viruses have been shown to modify the clinical picture of several autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Sjögren’s syndrome (SS), herpetic stromal ...

Multienzyme (3‐in‐1)‐Mimicking a Single Nucleobase‐Derived Bionanozyme for Versatile Environmental and Biomedical Applications

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of bioinspired 2D crystalline Bionanozyme derived from a single nucleobase. It effectively mimics multienzyme activity to detect and remove phenolic pollutants, identify disease biomarkers with high sensitivity, and protect cells from oxidative stress.

Seronegative spondyloarthropathies : a review : part II: genetics and pathogenesis [PDF]

, 1993
In none of the spondyloarthropathies is the pathogenesis well understood. Much of the investigation into the aetio-pathogenesis of these diseases has focused on the association with HLA-B27 and the known triggering potential of certain infectious agents.

Engineering a Human‐Sized Common Bile Duct Prototype with Regenerative Potential: In Vitro Evaluation of Mechanics, Function, Degradation, and Immune Modulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a multiphasic bile duct construct composed of biocompatible materials and cells, featuring an inner layer that supports biliary epithelium growth, a middle layer providing mechanical strength, and an outer cell‐permissive layer designed to support future in vivo integration.

Epitopedia: identifying molecular mimicry between pathogens and known immune epitopes

ImmunoInformatics, 2023
Upon infection, foreign antigenic proteins stimulate the host's immune system to produce antibodies targeting the pathogen. These antibodies bind to regions on the antigen called epitopes.

Antitumoral Efficacy of AuNRs‐Laden ECFCs In Vitro and In Vivo: Decoding the Heat and Rays Combo Treatment in Breast Cancer and Melanoma Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Endothelial Colony Forming Cells (ECFCs) acted as cellular cyborgs, stealthily transporting gold nanorods (AuNRs) into tumors to enable targeted near‐infrared (NIR) hyperthermia combined with radiotherapy. This approach triggers ferroptosis in melanoma and inhibits autophagy in breast cancer, revealing a tumor‐specific response to nanomaterial‐assisted

Geometrically Controlled WNT Activation Drives Intestinal Morphogenesis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Crypt‐villi‐like morphogenesis can be driven and controlled via architectural patterns in colorectal cells with the use of digital light processing printing. The resulting mini tissues exhibit budding structures and functionality, as evidenced by increased mucin expression.
