DEL‐1 is an Endogenous Senolytic Protein that Inhibits Senescence‐Associated Bone Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Senescent bone marrow stromal cells accumulate in the aging bone microenvironment, promoting bone degeneration. DEL‐1, an endogenous secreted protein, acts as a natural senolytic that selectively eliminates these cells. By engaging a β3 integrin/CD73/adenosine/p38 MAPK/BCL‐2 pathway, DEL‐1 counters aging‐related bone loss, revealing promising ...

Gαi1/3 Is a Novel Regulatory Target for RANKL Signal Transduction and Osteoporosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis, characterized by progressive bone loss and increased fracture risk, is a growing concern as the population ages. Current treatments, though advanced, remain limited, underscoring the necessity for novel therapeutic targets. Recent studies have shown that the immune system plays a key role in osteoporosis, with osteoclasts driving

Red Blood Cells Internalize Extracellular DNA via Apoptotic Bodies with Clinical Relevance to Cancer Patients

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mature red blood cells (RBCs) can capture extracellular DNA, with short fragments homologous to cfDNA. This uptake is mediated by apoptotic bodies, which induce RBC oxidative stress, deformation, and accelerated in vivo clearance. The rbcDNA abundance correlates with tumor burden and therapeutic response, highlighting its potential as a liquid biopsy ...

Precision Editing of NLRS Improves Effector Recognition for Enhanced Disease Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Precision engineering of plant NLR immune receptors enables rational design of enhanced pathogen resistance through mismatched pairing, domain swapping, and targeted mutagenesis. These approaches achieve multi‐fold expansion in recognition breadth while minimizing autoimmunity risks and fitness penalties.

Comment on “De Novo Reconstruction of 3D Human Facial Images from DNA Sequence”

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This comment examines AI‐driven DNA‐based facial reconstruction, focusing on the Difface model. While such technologies promise biomedical and forensic applications, they pose significant ethical, legal, and methodological challenges. We emphasize transparency, benchmarking, and rigorous validation to avoid misinterpretation and misuse.
