Boundary Lubrication by Associative Mucin
Mucus lubricants are widely distributed in living organisms. Such lubricants consist of a gel structure constructed by associative mucin. However, limited tribological studies exist on associative mucin fluids.

Stabilizing Functional Nucleic Acids for Real‐Sample Diagnostics
Functional nucleic acids enable programmable real‐sample diagnostics, but often lose function in complex biological matrices. This review highlights four stabilization levers—chemical, topological, architectural, and microenvironment/interface engineering—that preserve aptamer and DNAzyme performance in saliva, serum, urine, and stool, reframing ...

Acinar‐Derived Organoids Reveal Stage‐Specific Control of Acinar Plasticity
An acinar‐derived organoid system maintains adult pancreatic acinar identity ex vivo, converts it along an ordered acinar‐to‐ductal‐like trajectory, and then partially restores it. Each transition carries its own signal requirement, with EGF/EGFR initiating conversion and a staged glucocorticoid–IGF1R switch driving redifferentiation.

Protein‐binding aptamers remain poorly understood compared to their small‐molecule counterparts. Using green fluorescent protein (GFP) variants as a tractable model system, we show how subtle changes in protein surface composition and divalent metal ions reshape aptamer selection, specificity, and binding.

Postoperative infectious complications (PICs) have been associated with poor long‐term outcomes after colorectal cancer surgery, but evidence in the modern minimally invasive era remains limited. In this multicenter cohort of 5377 patients undergoing curative resection, PICs were independently associated with worse overall survival and relapse‐free ...

Molecular mechanisms of bitterness and astringency in the oral cavity induced by soyasaponin
The interaction mechanism between soyasaponin (Ssa) and bitter receptors/mucin, as well as the saliva interface behavior of Ssa, were investigated to explore the presentation mechanism of Ssa bitterness and astringency (BA).

KRAS mutation demonstrated a prognostic impact according to primary tumor sidedness, independent of tumor morphology, in patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases. A nomogram integrating biological and clinicopathological factors was developed to provide continuous biological risk assessment.

ZMapp reduces diffusion of Ebola viral particles in fresh human cervicovaginal mucus
Vaginal transmission from semen of male Ebola virus (EBOV) survivors has been implicated as a potential origin of Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreaks. While EBOV in semen must traverse cervicovaginal mucus (CVM) to reach target cells, the behaviour of ...
