Controllable engineered probiotic microspheres for treating ulcerative colitis: A cascade enzyme‐catalyzed strategy to restore intestinal redox homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A dual strategy integrating genetic engineering and physical encapsulation was proposed to enhance the cell viability and antioxidant properties of probiotics. The cascade antioxidant enzymes released from probiotic microspheres restore intestinal redox homeostasis by eliminating intestinal reactive oxygen species for ulcerative colitis treatment ...

Beyond antimicrobials: Ecological nano‐strategies for rebalancing dysbiotic oral microbial homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...

Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure Using a PFO Occluder After an Incomplete Surgical Ligation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The case regards a 73‐year‐old male who was referred for consideration of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure. His left atrial appendage was ligated during prior mitral valve surgery, but was noted to be patent on a recent transesophageal echocardiography. An Amulet device was selected based on CT planning.
