Bioengineering Lantibiotics for Therapeutic Success [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedSeveral examples of highly modified antimicrobial peptides have been described. While many such peptides are non-ribosomally synthesized, ribosomally synthesized equivalents are being discovered with increased frequency. Of the latter group,

Mechanical Force Storage and Reprogramming Hydrogel for Scarless Repair of Sports Joint Wounds
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by the energy conversion of tendons, the “energy transit station” hydrogel is designed. The hydrogel not only shields stress concentration in sports injuries, but also reprograms energy forms to provide reasonable biomimetic contraction for wounds.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A bimetal‐phenolic framework (Que‐Fe‐CeMPF) is developed by direct self‐assembly through the coordination of Fe3+ and Ce4+ with quercetin. Que‐Fe‐CeMPF exhibits multimodal activity, including cleaving matrix eDNA within biofilm, generating hydroxyl radicals via catalytic H2O2 to kill bacteria, and alleviating inflammation by stimulating macrophage ...
