Sugar Functionalized Collagen Material for Local Modulation of Innate Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Modulation of the innate immune response at the implant site can significantly influence adaptive immunity. A mannose‐functionalized collagen patch, termed the Local Immunotuning Patch (LIP), has been designed to engage mannose receptors on antigen‐presenting cells while exhibiting antibacterial properties. LIP orchestrates complex immune pathways that

Red Blood Cell‐Induced Bacterial Margination Improves Microbial Hemoadsorption on Engineered Cell‐Depleted Thrombi, Restoring Severe Bacteremia in Rats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A highly efficient extracorporeal device for treating bacteremia is developed by integrating microfluidic bacterial margination and engineered cell‐depleted thrombi strategically constructed in the device. The rodent models, severely infected with antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, recover from bacteremia after two subsequent extracorporeal blood ...

AuCu@CuO2 Aerogels with H2O2/O2 Self‐Supplying and Quadruple Enzyme‐Like Activity for MRSA‐Infected Diabetic Wound Management

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The AuCu@CuO2 aerogels demonstrate favorable photothermal properties, four types of enzyme‐like activities, and H2O2/O2 self‐supplying to modulate the complex microenvironment of MRSA‐infected diabetic wounds. The results indicate that the AuCu@CuO2 aerogel can be activated by the microenvironment of diabetic wound infection, alleviating inflammation ...

Glucose‐Responsive and Analgesic Gel for Diabetic Subcutaneous Abscess Treatment by Simultaneously Boosting Photodynamic Therapy and Relieving Hypoxia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The work constructs a glucose‐triggered gel for diabetic abscess treatment. The results demonstrate that the gel catalyzes glucose into oxygen, alleviates the hypoxia, and ensures sufficient ROS generation to combat pathogenic bacteria. Simultaneously, borneol within the gel can enhance the antibacterial activity of ROS and alleviate pain in patients ...

A Combined Aptamer Pulldown‐DNAzyme Cleavage Assay for Intact Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Rapid fluorescence and lateral flow assays were developed for methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (SA) by combining a DNA aptamer for selective isolation and an RNA‐cleaving DNAzyme for detection of MRSA. Abstract Accurate and convenient detection of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) plays a vital role in determining ...
