Exploring AAV‐Mediated Gene Therapy for Inner Ear Diseases: from Preclinical Success to Clinical Potential

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Current preclinical studies of AAV‐mediated gene therapy explore different strategies based on the characteristics of inner ear diseases. For genetic hearing loss, approaches include the replacement of a “good gene,” removal of a “bad gene,” or direct correction of mutations through base editing.

LTP requires a reserve pool of glutamate receptors independent of subunit type

Nature, 2012
Long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic transmission is thought to be an important cellular mechanism underlying memory formation. A widely accepted model posits that LTP requires the cytoplasmic carboxyl tail (C-tail) of the AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5 ...

Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Conformational pathway provides unique sensitivity to a synaptic mGluR

Nature Communications, 2019
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are dimeric G-protein–coupled receptors that operate at neural synapses. Here authors use FRET assays in live cells to monitor mGluR2/7’s activation and reveal how heterodimerization can alter the glutamate ...

Rational Design of Inner Ear Drug Delivery Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hearing loss is a common disease affecting many people, and inner ear lesions are one of the most important causes. This review focuses on the treatment of inner ear hearing loss by drug delivery systems. It includes the current methods and technologies developed, and it predicts possible directions.

Glutamate at the Vertebrate Neuromuscular Junction: From Modulation to Neurotransmission

Cells, 2019
Although acetylcholine is the major neurotransmitter operating at the skeletal neuromuscular junction of many invertebrates and of vertebrates, glutamate participates in modulating cholinergic transmission and plastic changes in the last.

Cathepsin K Aggravates Pulmonary Fibrosis Through Promoting Fibroblast Glutamine Metabolism and Collagen Synthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CTSK plays a critical role in pulmonary fibrosis. Excessive CTSK accumulation interacts with SNX9 to enhance TGF‐β1‐induced SMAD3 activation and GLS1 expression in fibroblasts, driving glutamine metabolism for collagen biosynthesis and exacerbating pulmonary fibrosis.

Sequences within the C terminus of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) are responsible for inner nuclear membrane localization [PDF]

, 2017
Traditionally, G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) are thought to be located on the cell surface where they transmit extracellular signals to the cytoplasm.

Ultra‐low LOD H2O2 Sensor Based on Synergistic Nernst Potential Effect

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Due to the synergistic effect of ENernst,H2O2${E}_{\mathrm{Nernst},\ {\mathrm{H}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}}$ and ENernst,H+${E}_{\mathrm{Nernst},\ {\mathrm{H}}^{+}}$, the proposed sensors in this study can achieve ultralow H2O2 detection limit as low as 1.8 × 10−12 M based on the stacked PEDOT: BTB/PEDOT: PSS semiconducting layer.

Tailoring a Functional Synthetic Microbial Community Alleviates Fusobacterium nucleatum‐infected Colorectal Cancer via Ecological Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The bottom‐up strategy based on multiomics data is used for the SynCom design, and it successfully inhibited F. nucleatum growth and achieved stable colonization in vivo. In addition, it promoted tryptophan metabolism and secondary bile acid conversion, reduced lipid accumulation, relieved microbiome disorder, decreased inflammatory reaction, and ...
