A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Safety and Efficacy of Systemic Enzyme Supplementation on Symptoms and Quality of Life in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesDiseases
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) imposes a substantial symptom burden that adversely impacts patients’ quality of life. Current anti-fibrotic treatments for IPF provide limited symptomatic relief, necessitating the implementation of complementary ...

Developing Highly Effective Nanoparticle mRNA Therapeutic for Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sepsis‑induced pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome suppresses FOXF1 in lung endothelial cells which causes life‐threatening lung damage. To counter this, researchers developed nanoparticles that specifically target these cells and deliver FOXF1 mRNA.

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...

ERα–PADI4–CXCL8 Axis Drives MDSC‐Mediated Immune Evasion in Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MAPK‐driven ligand‐independent ERα activation drives PADI4 transcription and translation. This enzyme then modifies CXCL8 chemokines through citrullination, generating a potent chemoattractant gradient specifically for myeloid‐derived suppressor cells.

A Robust Bio‐Supportive Hydrogel Patch for Full‐Thickness Repair of Gastroesophageal Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Gastroesophageal defect repair remains a formidable clinical challenge plagued by high leakage and life‐threatening complications. We develop a double‐disc, highly crystalline PVA‐based RBS hydrogel patch featuring suture‐free sealing, robust acid/enzyme resistance and mechanical durability.

Versatile Microgel Platform for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Therapy: Targeting Pericyte‐Mediated Fibrosis and Protecting Nucleus Pulposus Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The engineered MMS@TRP microgel enables targeted, acid‐responsive delivery of a miR‐21 inhibitor to pericytes. It effectively suppresses disc fibrosis by inhibiting TGF‐β signaling while protecting nucleus pulposus cells via sustained, antioxidant tannic acid release.

ACAT1‐Mediated SP1‐K694 Lactylation Promotes M1 Macrophage Polarization via TREM1 Transcription in COPD

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Upon cigarette smoke exposure(CSE), LDHA expression is increased in lung macrophages, promoting the conversion of pyruvate to lactate and elevating the lactylation level of SP1 at the K694 site. This, in turn, enhances SP1 enrichment at the TREM1 promoter, increases TREM1 expression, promoted M1 macrophage polarization, and triggers the secretion of ...

The Thyroid Hormone Analog GC‐1 Mitigates Acute Lung Injury by Inhibiting M1 Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life‐threatening condition with a high mortality rate of ≈40%. Thyroid hormones (THs) play crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis of the cellular microenvironment under stress. The
