Automated Label‐Free Assay for Viral Detection and Inhibitor Screening via Biomembrane‐Functionalized Microelectrode Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A bioelectronic sensor integrating 2D cell membranes with organic microelectrode arrays enables detection of SARS‐CoV‐2 fusion pathways. Natively‐expressed viral receptors promote monitoring of viral entry and screening of antibody‐based inhibitors.

Airway environment drives the selection of quorum sensing mutants and promote Staphylococcus aureus chronic lifestyle

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Staphylococcus aureus is a predominant cause of chronic lung infections. While the airway environment is rich in highly sialylated mucins, the interaction of S. aureus with sialic acid is poorly characterized. Using S.

Single-channel measurements of an N-acetylneuraminic acid-inducible outer membrane channel in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
NanC is an Escherichia coli outer membrane protein involved in sialic acid (Neu5Ac, i.e., N-acetylneuraminic acid) uptake. Expression of the NanC gene is induced and controlled by Neu5Ac. The transport mechanism of Neu5Ac is not known.

An Anti‐Myd88 Peptide Synergistically Enhances the Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Extracellular Vesicles from Naïve Umbilical Cord MSC or HEK293F CD24 Overexpressing Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study confirms that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or HEK293F cells overexpressing CD24 have anti‐inflammatory effects in macrophages and monocytes. Further loading either of these EVs with an anti‐Myd88 peptide synergistically enhanced the anti‐inflammatory effects of the EVs.

ST6GAL1‐Mediated Sialylation Stabilizes PD‐L1 and Drives Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ST6GAL1 plays a critical role in tumor progression and immune regulation in colorectal cancer (CRC). Its depletion significantly suppresses the malignant phenotype of CRC cells and enhances the efficacy of anti‐PD‐L1 therapy. High ST6GAL1 expression promotes an immune‐activated tumor microenvironment (TME), characterized by increased infiltration of ...

Identification of TPRA1 as a Novel Receptor and Predictive Biomarker for Oncolytic Virus M1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies transmembrane protein adipocyte‐associated 1 (TPRA1) as a novel receptor for oncolytic virus M1 (OVM). TPRA1's ectodomain binds OVM particles, while its intracellular domain facilitates virus internalization, promoting efficient viral entry.
