Extracellular Vesicles of Streptococcus anginosus Mediate Gastritis via Epithelial Barrier Disruption and Macrophage‐driven Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Streptococcus anginosus extracellular vesicles (SA‐EVs) accumulate in gastric tissue, disrupt epithelial tight junctions, and induce gastritis characterized by neutrophil infiltration and elevated cytokines (TNF‐α, IL‐6, IL‐17A). Proteomics identifies TMPC and FBP62 as key SA‐EVs virulence factors; their genetic deletion attenuates inflammation ...

A Strain Decoupling Packaging Strategy for High‐Fidelity Ultrathin Silicon Shape Sensors for Soft Medical Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Reliable soft sensors are essential for precise control in soft medical robots such as endoscopes. We developed ultrathin silicon piezoresistive sensors and their oil‐lubricated slidable packaging, which enables high‐fidelity shape sensing of silicon gauges by mechanically isolating the sensing element within a dual‐layer film.
