SIRT1 Prevents Ferroptosis in Corneal Epithelial Cells by Enhancing HIF1α Protein Stability in Dry Eye Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperosmotic stress drives ferroptosis in corneal epithelium via SIRT1 downregulation. This work demonstrates that SIRT1 activation stabilizes HIF1α, which transcriptionally upregulates GPX4 to inhibit lipid peroxidation and cell death. The identified SIRT1/HIF1α/GPX4 axis reveals a novel defense mechanism and potential therapy for dry eye disease ...

Multimodal Wearable Biosensing Meets Multidomain AI: A Pathway to Decentralized Healthcare

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multimodal biosensing meets multidomain AI. Wearable biosensors capture complementary biochemical and physiological signals, while cross‐device, population‐aware learning aligns noisy, heterogeneous streams. This Review distills key sensing modalities, fusion and calibration strategies, and privacy‐preserving deployment pathways that transform ...

MG53 Coordinates Macrophage Polarization and Neuroimmune Coupling to Promote Corneal Nerve Regeneration via the MPEG1–MVP–STAT6 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Corneal nerve regeneration is critical to corneal wound healing processes. The current study reveals a novel role of MG53 in promoting corneal nerve regeneration after alkali induced injury. Mechanistically, MG53 enters macrophages via its receptor, MPEG1, promotes MVP K63 ubiquitination, and triggers STAT6 induced repair‐related genes expression ...

Ion‐Pair‐Tuned Ionogels for Broad‐Range Linear Pressure Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ionogels engineered through ion‐pair tuning extend the linear sensing range of capacitive pressure sensors. By balancing ionic mobility and polarizability within the polymer matrix, this approach mitigates dielectric saturation and maintains a stable pressure response across a broad operating range.

Contesting Anticompetitive Actions Taken in the Name of the State: State Action Immunity and Health Care Markets [PDF]

, 2006
The so-called state action doctrine is a judicially created formula for resolving conflicts between federal antitrust policy and state policies that seem to authorize conduct that antitrust law would prohibit.
