Real time in vivo efficacy monitoring of desialylation and perforation enhanced immunotherapy of cancer

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A multifunctional nanomedicine is designed to engineer NK cells for enhanced cancer immunotherapy through perforation and desialylation, enabling real‐time monitoring of ATP and GrB levels for precise efficacy assessment. Abstract Efficient enhanced NK cell therapy is of critical importance in the immune treatment of cancer.

Ancient human sialic acid variant restricts an emerging zoonotic malaria parasite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Plasmodium knowlesi is a zoonotic parasite transmitted from macaques causing malaria in humans in Southeast Asia. Plasmodium parasites bind to red blood cell (RBC) surface receptors, many of which are sialylated. While macaques synthesize the sialic acid

Design of a Fluorescent Boronic Acid‐Functionalized Pyranoflavylium Receptor to Host and Release Diol‐Rich Bioactive Analytes in a pH‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This work presents a pH‐responsive ON–OFF fluorescent system based on a novel pyranoflavylium dye functionalized with a boronic acid receptor. The receptor exhibits a markedly higher affinity for the catechol‐containing polyphenol (+)‐catechin than for conventional diol‐rich molecules such as glucose and lactic acid.

CardiLect: A combined cross‐species lectin histochemistry protocol for the automated analysis of cardiac remodelling

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1398-1415, April 2025.
Abstract Background Cardiac remodelling, a crucial aspect of heart failure, is commonly investigated in preclinical models by quantifying cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area (CSA) and microvascular density (MVD) via histological methods, such as immunohistochemistry.

Validation and Application of an HPLC–UV Method for the Quantification of 3‐O‐Methylquercetin in Nasal Mucosa

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
This study improved an HPLC–UV method for quantifying 3‐O‐methylquercetin in porcine nasal mucosa following ICH M10 and ANVISA (Brazil) guidelines, assessing selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and robustness. The method was applied for the first time to evaluate release, permeation, and retention profiles of a nasal formulation.

Sialic acid catabolism drives intestinal inflammation and microbial dysbiosis in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Rapid shifts in microbial composition frequently occur during intestinal inflammation, but the mechanisms underlying such changes remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that an increased caecal sialidase activity is critical in conferring a growth advantage

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Sialic acid-dependent cell entry of human enterovirus D68

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a causative agent of childhood respiratory diseases and has now emerged as a global public health threat. Nevertheless, knowledge of the tissue tropism and pathogenesis of EV-D68 has been hindered by a lack of studies on
