LRG1 Drives Pathological Angiogenesis by Disrupting Neutrophil Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In bladder cancer, LRG1 binds to ANXA2 to trigger mitochondrial ROS‐dependent NETosis. This pathogenic cascade actively uncouples endothelial‐mural cell interactions, driving profound vascular destabilization. Consequently, targeting the LRG1‐ANXA2 axis attenuates the neutrophil burden and induces structural vascular normalization, offering a powerful ...

Mechanically rigid supramolecular assemblies formed from an Fmoc-guanine conjugated peptide nucleic acid

Nature Communications, 2019
DNA is an attractive nanomaterial, yet limited compared to polyamides due to low stability and mechanical issues. Here, the authors combine polyamide and DNA characteristics to form mechanically rigid self-assembled peptide nucleic acid based materials ...

Radical‐Mediated In Situ Fluorescence Dye Deposition: A Simple Interfacial Signal Amplification Reaction for Ultrasensitive Immunoassay on Barcode Beads

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A radical‐mediated in situ fluorescence dye deposition (RIFD) reaction containing merely three elements of beads, dyes, and radicals is discovered for the first time, and its underlying mechanism is elucidated. This simple RIFD enables the interfacial and ultrafast deposition of free dyes onto barcode beads, serving as a powerful signal amplification ...

Molecular Dynamics‐Guided Sterol Engineering of mRNA‐Lipid Nanoparticles Reprograms Biodistribution and Enhances Spleen‐Selective Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sterol engineering enables precise control of mRNA lipid nanoparticles by tuning membrane organization. Replacing cholesterol with bile acid‐derived sterols redirects protein expression from the liver to the spleen. Notably, CA‐20 LNP enhances antigen‐specific immune responses while exhibiting a favorable safety profile, highlighting sterols as a ...

Pyrazole‐Derived Antibacterial Compounds Effectively Treat Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Infections by Inhibiting Aspartate Transcarbamoylase

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unveils a novel antibacterial mechanism against MRSA, in which the compound Py‐27 selectively targets and inhibits aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase), a key enzyme in pyrimidine synthesis. This inhibition disrupts DNA replication, induces oxidative damage, leading to potent bactericidal activity.

An Aggregation‐Induced Polymerization Poly(Disulfide)‐Drug Nanoplatform for Autoimmune Uveitis Therapy via Inhibiting the cGAS‐STING Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cationic poly(disulfide)‐drug nanoplatform (LA/DexP) was developed to treat experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). With potent blood‐retinal barrier penetrability, LA/DexP releases DSP in response to high ROS and scavenges cfDNA to inhibit the cGAS‐STING signaling pathway.
