Targeting β2‐Adrenergic Receptor Stability With Lycorine Reveals a Host‐Directed Pathway for Antiviral Defense Against Poxviruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic stress drives autophagy‐mediated β2‐AR degradation, impairing antiviral immunity and promoting poxvirus lethality. Lycorine directly stabilizes β2‐AR to restore host defense, suppress excessive inflammation and improve survival. ABSTRACT Psychological stress is a pervasive yet poorly understood modulator of infectious disease outcomes. Here, we

An Engineered HR1‐Stem Helix‐HR2 Trimeric Platform for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Coronavirus Vaccines

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sun et al. report a self‐assembling trimeric subunit vaccine platform termed RHS, which integrates the JN.1 receptor‐binding domain (RBD) with the heptad repeat 1 (HR1), stem helix (SH), and heptad repeat 2 (HR2) regions. The SARS‐CoV‐2 RHS vaccine elicits variant‐reactive RBD‐specific antibodies and cross‐reactive SH‐specific antibodies against ...
