One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a

Characterization and antibiofilm efficacy of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage HKPH_J3

International Journal of Medical Microbiology
In recent years, due to the spread of antibiotic resistance, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has emerged as an ESKAPE super-resistant pathogen, posing a major threat to current therapies. Phage therapy is currently one of the most promising treatment methods.

A Synthetic Platform for Antibody Junctional Diversification Beyond Natural Constraints

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ARESEC is a synthetic platform that reconstructs functional V(D)J recombination in HEK293T cells. By introducing RSS elements and co‐expressing RAG1/2 and TdT across all three antibody CDRs, it enables programmable junctional diversification and direct generation of high‐affinity variants targeting PD‐1/PD‐L1, overcoming the evolutionary constraints of

Functional–Taxonomic Scaling Resolves Conflicting Average Genome Size Estimates Across Environmental Gradients

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on genome size‐functional breadth theory, we introduce and validate a framework that adjudicates conflicting average genome size (AGS) estimates by testing which estimate yields a gap between scaled functional diversity and scaled taxonomic diversity that is consistent with the expected positive association between genome size and gene functional

The Ecology of Phage Resistance: The Key to Successful Phage Therapy?

, 2020
: As antibiotic resistance undermines efforts to treat bacterial infections, phage therapy is being increasingly considered as an alternative in clinical settings and agriculture. However, a major concern in using phages is that pathogens will develop resistance to the phage.

Engineered Transformer Base Editor with Enhanced Editing Efficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A highly efficient transformer base editor system achieves robust genomic editing in a humanized mouse model. This work establishes a versatile and translatable platform, opening new avenues for precision gene therapy. ABSTRACT Canonical cytosine base editors (CBEs) achieve precise C‐to‐T conversions without inducing DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs ...

Resistance Development to Bacteriophages Occurring during Bacteriophage Therapy

Viruses, 2018
Bacteriophage (phage) therapy, i.e., the use of viruses that infect bacteria as antimicrobial agents, is a promising alternative to conventional antibiotics.

Sex‐ and Time‐Resolved Physiological and Gut Ecosystem Responses to a Food‐Grade Microbiome‐Targeted Intervention in Collegiate Endurance Athletes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In collegiate endurance athletes, a 6‐week randomized CPYE intervention yielded time‐ and sex‐dependent shifts in field‐based cardiorespiratory, metabolic, and redox indices, accompanied by changes in gut multi‐omics profiles. An exploratory extension during intensified training generates hypotheses warranting future validation.

Critical Roles of O‐Acetylation Revealed by Synthetic Trisaccharide Antigens for a Broad‐Spectrum Anti‐Salmonella Vaccine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A synthetic glycoconjugate vaccine based on a diacetylated Salmonella trisaccharide elicits broadly protective antibodies against four major human pathogenic serovars. Mechanistic studies identify 2,3‐di‐O‐acetylation of rhamnose as a critical determinant of antigen recognition and breadth of protection, establishing a new strategy for broad‐spectrum ...
