Development‐based In Vivo Bioreactor Strategy for Challenging Senescent Bone Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a development‐based in vivo bioreactor strategy to generate rejuvenated bone grafts (vBR‐Bone) within aged hosts. By enclosing vBR‐Bone fragments within an asymmetric biomimetic periosteum, segmental femoral defects in aged mice were successfully repaired within 6 weeks. Mechanistically, the multifactors of vBR‐Bone reconstitute a remodeling

Patterns of Human Plague in Uganda, 2008–2016

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Plague is a highly virulent fleaborne zoonosis that occurs throughout many parts of the world; most suspected human cases are reported from resource-poor settings in sub-Saharan Africa.

Targeted Thrombolysis via CCR2‐Engineered Macrophage‐Mimicking Microbubbles Safely Ablates Venous, Arterial, and Microvascular Thrombosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CCR2‐Enhanced Macrophage Membrane–Camouflaged Microbubbles for MCP‐1–Mediated Thrombus Targeting and Ultrasound‐Triggered Urokinase Release. ABSTRACT The clinical management of thrombosis, a primary cause of death worldwide, is hampered by the limitations of current thrombolytic agents, including short half‐life and high risk of off‐target bleeding ...

Sugar‐Armored Pesticides: Self‐Assembled System for Enhanced Foliar Adhesion and Sustained Delivery of Hydrophobic Antimicrobials Against Bacterial Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a sugar‐armored, self‐assembled pesticide delivery system that enhances foliar adhesion, provides sustained release, effectively disrupts biofilms, and demonstrates superior bactericidal activity for improved disease control.

A non-stationary relationship between global climate phenomena and human plague incidence in Madagascar.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BackgroundPlague, a zoonosis caused by Yersinia pestis, is found in Asia and the Americas, but predominantly in Africa, with the island of Madagascar reporting almost one third of human cases worldwide.

Eighteenth century Yersinia pestis genomes reveal the long-term persistence of an historical plague focus

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The 14th–18th century pandemic of Yersinia pestis caused devastating disease outbreaks in Europe for almost 400 years. The reasons for plague’s persistence and abrupt disappearance in Europe are poorly understood, but could have been due to either the ...

A Conformal Wearable Ultrasound Bioelectronics for Mechanotherapy Reprogramming of Fibroblast Plasticity via Wnt‐FGF10 Axis to Overcome Fibrotic Healing in Urethral Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibrotic scarring persistently challenges urethral reconstruction. This study introduces a conformal, wearable ultrasound bioelectronic system that overcomes this by reprogramming fibroblast fate. The device activates a developmental Wnt–FGF10 axis, driving fibroblasts toward a regenerative FGF10+ phenotype that promotes angiogenesis and matrix ...

Hotspots of genetic change in Yersinia pestis

open access: yesNature Communications
The relative contributions of mutation rate variation, selection, and recombination in shaping genomic variation in bacterial populations remain poorly understood. Here we analyze 3318 Yersinia pestis genomes, spanning nearly a century and including 2336
