Mucins: a dynamic biology

open access: yes, 2013
In this highlight, we discuss the multifaceted biology of mucins, where molecular architecture meets function, and especially the collective properties of mucin networks and gels that select adherent bacteria and restrict ...

Transport–Reaction–Signal Coupling in Lateral Flow Assays for Next‐Generation Point‐of‐Care Diagnostics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays are evolving into interdisciplinary, system‐level sensing platforms. Recent innovations are deconstructed through coupled phases of mass transfer, reaction, and signal transduction, revealing interdependence across porous materials, interfacial chemistry, nanolabels, readout devices, and data‐enabled analysis.

A Postbiotic‐Inducing Ganoderma applanatum Polysaccharide Repairs the Intestinal Barrier via a Phocaeicola vulgatus ‐ Tridecylic Acid Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies GAP2, a bioactive polysaccharide fraction derived from Ganoderma applanatum, as a postbiotic inducer that repairs intestinal barrier damage in a gut microbiota‐dependent manner. GAP2 enriches Phocaeicola vulgatus, which degrades GAP2 and promotes tridecylic acid production, triggering Rho/CDC42 signaling and tight‐junction ...

Extending Small‐Molecule Aptamer Discovery Principles to Protein Targets: Selection and Characterization of Green Fluorescent Protein Aptamers

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
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.

A ROS‐Responsive and Mucoadhesive Thermosensitive Hydrogel Encapsulated with Mizoribine for Synergistic Dry Eye Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The ROS‐responsive in situ thermosensitive MZR@SPPP hydrogel system enables dual‐stage drug loading and sustained ocular delivery. Upon administration, it gelates at ocular surface temperature, enhancing ocular adhesion. By scavenging free radicals, restoring NRF2‐mediated antioxidant defense and mitochondrial homeostasis, and suppressing inflammatory ...

Determination of Gene‐Level Fitness Contributions Across the Mucin‐Utilization Network of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide CRISPRi and RNA‐seq resolve how B. thetaiotaomicron converts host mucosal glycans into fitness. The study reveals a layered mucin‐utilization architecture in which capsular polysaccharides constrain surface access, extracellular CAZymes and peptidases show functional redundancy, and intracellular catabolic pathways create discrete metabolic

Mucins in ovarian cancer diagnosis and therapy

open access: yes, 2009
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy and the five-year survival rate is only 35% after diagnosis. Epithelial ovarian cancer is a highly metastatic disease characterized by widespread peritoneal dissemination and ascites.

ELF5‐Mediated Enhancer–Promoter Interaction Regulates LALBA Expression in Ovine Mammary Gland

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the study, we systematically investigate the epigenetic mechanisms underlying lactation traits in sheep by integrating transcriptomic, chromatin accessibility, histone modification, and functional analyses. We identify a super‐enhancer at the LALBA locus and demonstrate that enhancer E4 functions as its core regulatory element.

Gut microbiota–derived short‐chain fatty acids regulate group 3 innate lymphoid cells in HCC

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are essential for host defense against infection and tissue homeostasis. However, their role in the development of HCC has not been adequately confirmed. In this study, we investigated the immunomodulatory role of short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from intestinal microbiota in ILC3
