PPY‐Induced iCAFs Cultivate an Immunosuppressive Microenvironment in Pancreatic Cancer
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma features abundant stromal components that hinder therapy efficacy. Single‐cell RNA sequencing analysis combined with experiments identified PPY, a gastrointestinal hormone, as a novel inducer of immunosuppressive iCAFs. Mechanistic studies revealed that PPY activates the non‐canonical NF‐κB pathway via EGFR.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Leukocytes sense mechanical cues provided by surrounding cells to regulate motility. Replicating the confining pressures applied by soft, elastic tissues in vitro is challenging. Here, the use of liquid‐liquid interfaces is introduced to model forces exerted by surrounding cells. Confining pressures are tunable by controlling interfacial curvature, and

Efficient imaging and computer vision detection of two cell shapes in young cotton fibers
Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 10, Issue 6, November-December 2022., 2022 Abstract Premise The shape of young cotton (Gossypium) fibers varies within and between commercial cotton species, as revealed by previous detailed analyses of one cultivar of G. hirsutum and one of G. barbadense. Both narrow and wide fibers exist in G. hirsutum cv.

Molecular mimicry and immune thrombocytopenia
Blood, 2009 In this issue of Blood, Zhang and colleagues show evidence that many thrombocytopenic patients infected with HCV have autoantibodies specific for a defined peptide sequence in platelet membrane glycoprotein IIIa. These autoantibodies appear to be the result of an immune response mounted against one or more peptides present in the HCV core envelope ...

Engineering the Immune Response to Biomaterials
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This paper reviews immune responses to biomaterials, stages of evolution in relation to managing these responses ranging from preventing to modulating them. It also discusses state‐of‐the‐art strategies to modulate these responses and modes of their delivery.
