Revealing Cell‐Free Mitochondrial DNA Breakage Patterns as Novel Biomarkers for Sepsis
Uncovering distinct plasma cfmtDNA breakage patterns opens new frontiers for early sepsis detection and prognosis. Unique cleavage hotspots in RNR2 and COX2 regions outperform traditional biomarkers, while mechanistic insights suggest bacterial endonuclease involvement.

Homeostasis of Gut Microbiota Protects against Susceptibility to Fungal Pneumonia
Fungal pneumonia induces inflammation, shown by heightened IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α levels and a growth in Staphylococcus in the alveolar flora. The gut microbiota, acting through the gut‐lung axis via blood, impacts fungal pneumonia susceptibility by altering lung metabolism and inflammatory responses.

A phosphorothioate‐modified aptamer PTf‐SRiApt capable of disrupting “undruggable” transcription factor SCAF4‐POLR2A interaction with high inhibitory activity and biological stability is presented here. Through this inhibition, PTf‐SRiApt successfully arrested cell cycle progression, induced cell death, and elevated immune recruitment in SCAF4‐POLR2A ...

Type I Interferon Signaling Augments Autoimmunity in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder
The cGAS‐STING innate immune pathway is excessively activated both in peripheral monocytes and CNS microglia in patients with NMOSD, leading to an overproduction of IFN‐I. IFN‐I subsequently acts on AQP4‐specific autoreactive T cells. Blocking this pathway may offer novel therapeutic options for individuals with NMOSD.
