Molecular crypsis by pathogenic fungi using human factor H. A numerical model.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Molecular mimicry is the formation of specific molecules by microbial pathogens to avoid recognition and attack by the immune system of the host. Several pathogenic Ascomycota and Zygomycota show such a behaviour by utilizing human complement factor H to

Engineering Bacterial Secretion Systems for Enhanced Tumor Imaging and Surgical Guidance
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel contrast agent platform, Streptavidin Associated Salmonella (SAS), for fluorescence image guided surgery. SAS selectively colonizes tumors and secretes streptavidin, enabling precise delineation of invasive tumor margins with prolonged signal retention.

GelMA/AgNWs Hydrogel Combined with Electrical Stimulation Effectively Promotes Skin Wound Healing
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.The doped AgNWs in GelMA hydrogel prevent the wound from being infected and introduce the electrical field into the wound region. COMSOL simulation guides the introduced electric field to be conducive to promoting cell migration and proliferation. Thus, the GelMA/AgNWs hydrogel combined with ES effectively accelerated the healing process of skin wounds.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Renal tubular injury is a major contributor to kidney disease, yet remains poorly understood due to the lack of predictive models. This study presents a high‐throughput 3D renal proximal tubule model on the AngioPlate platform integrated with automated TEER measurements (AngioTEER), enabling real‐time monitoring of drug‐induced nephrotoxicity ...
