Mechanical Distraction Engages a Neuro‐Immune Program to Drive Regenerative Soft‐Tissue Healing in Ilizarov Bone Transport

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ilizarov bone transport accelerates healing of soft‐tissue wounds through unclear mechanisms. In a rat model, sustained mechanical distraction elicits calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP)‐dominant sensory reinnervation, creating a niche that shifts immune cells from inflammatory to repair‐promoting states and speeds re‐epithelialization.

Quorum Sensing: Not Just a Bridge Between Bacteria

MicrobiologyOpen
The study of quorum sensing (QS) has gained critical importance, offering insights into bacterial and microorganism communication. QS, regulated by autoinducers, synchronizes collective bacterial behaviors across diverse chemical signals and target genes.

Collaboration between a temperate phage and Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing constrains social cheats

mBio
Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses quorum sensing (QS) to coordinate cooperative behaviors. In the model strain PAO1, QS activates dozens of genes, including those for cyanide production and cyanide resistance.

A Novel Immunosuppressive Effector Functions as a Bio‐Adjuvant to Enhance the Activity of Bacillus Thuringiensis and Chemical Insecticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A previously unrecognized link between quorum sensing and host immune suppression is revealed in Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt). The PlcR‐PapR system induces the novel immunosuppressive effector PisP, which inhibits DAF‐16 nuclear translocation and downstream immune defenses, thereby promoting Bt pathogenicity.

Epigenetic Activation of ANGPTL4 Drives EBV‐Negative Gastric Cancer via Neutrophil Recruitment and NET Release via Stabilizing ANXA5

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ANGPTL4 exhibits distinct promoter methylation patterns and expression profiles in EBV‐positive versus EBV‐negative gastric cancer. Secreted C‐terminal ANGPTL4 (cANGPTL4) acts as the dominant functional isoform driving GC proliferation, EMT, and neutrophil infiltration. cANGPTL4 promotes neutrophil recruitment via NF‐κB/CXCL8 axis.

Stretchable Electronic Skins Realized by Confined In Situ Silver Patterning on Siloxane‐Modified Polyimide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Stretchable polyimide substrates support directly patterned silver circuits for skin‐mounted motion‐detection demonstrations. Device‐level feasibility is further explored through strain‐dependent resonance measurements and a separate smartphone‐assisted near‐field excitation experiment with rectified DC output, illustrating the potential of the ...

Chemical Inhibition of Pyocyanin Biosynthesis Attenuates Virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Anti‐virulence strategies disarm pathogens rather than killing them directly. A β‐lactone reduces pyocyanin production without affecting growth. Chemical proteomics identified PqsC as the primary target via binding to Cys129. Crystallography revealed the binding mode, and SAR yielded a chloroacetamide inhibitor with improved enzymatic potency and anti ...

Optimal tuning of bacterial sensing potential

Molecular Systems Biology, 2009
Through production and sensing of small signal molecules, quorum sensing (QS) enables bacteria to detect changes in their density and regulate their functions accordingly. QS systems are tremendously diverse in terms of their specific sensory components,
