De Novo Design of Specific Heterotrimeric Collagen‐Like Peptides via Genetic Algorithm

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GRACE is a computational algorithm producing peptide sequences that will reliably fold into composition and registration‐controlled collagen‐like triple helices with user‐specified thermal stability. Additionally, GRACE allows users to specify the inclusion of biologically relevant (or other) sequences to automatically create tailored triple helices ...

A Study on the Cell Layer Patterns of a Citrus Periclinal Chimera Reveals β‐Cryptoxanthin Regulation in Citrus Fruits

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers have identified a citrus chimera with distinctive tissue origins and carotenoid profiles. It is discovered that fruit tissues develop from all three cell layers but in different proportions. A key transcription factor, MYB107, regulates β‐cryptoxanthin production by directly activating carotenoid biosynthesis genes, explaining why some ...

HIFU‐Driven Targeted Pyroptosis Therapy in Basal‐Like Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a HIFU‐driven pyroptosis strategy for BLBC treatment. Combining HIFU with platelet‐membrane hybridized liposomes encapsulating mitoxantrone enhances tumor targeting and efficacy. The synergistic treatment modulates key epigenetic regulators and activates the pyroptotic pathway through ROS generation and inflammasome signaling ...

Adaptive Antioxidant Nanomedicines Inhibit Ferroptosis in Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells to Alleviate Diabetic Kidney Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, an adaptive antioxidant nanodrug (AAN) is developed through the self‐polymerization of L‐selenocysteine. The AAN exhibits dual functionalities: antioxidant activity (scavenging reactive oxygen species) and mitochondrial targeting. Moreover, the released selenium (Se) participates in the synthesis of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), which

The Critical Role of Enhanced OXPHOS and Mitochondrial Hyperpolarization in Simulated Microgravity‐Induced Oocyte Maturation Arrest

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Simulated microgravity induces distinct mitochondrial hyperactivation patterns‐elevated OXPHOS and MMP‐which accelerate meiosis without SAC failure but delays MTOC coalescence, leading to spindle defects and meiotic arrest. Prolonging M‐phase restores MTOC assembly and oocyte maturation.

Engineering Neutrophil Vesicles for Synergistic Protection against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury after Lung Transplant

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered neutrophil‐derived vesicles (SOD2‐Fer‐1@CVs) co‐delivering antioxidant and ferroptosis‐inhibitory agents enable inflammation‐targeted, ROS‐responsive therapy for ischemia–reperfusion injury in lung transplantation. Synergizing with ex vivo lung perfusion, this strategy alleviates oxidative stress and inflammation, restores vascular integrity,

A Genetically Encoded Biosensor for Characterizing Transport and Metabolism of Glutarate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, a genetically encoded glutarate biosensor, Glusor, is developed based on transcriptional regulator CsiR. Glusor can quantify glutarate concentrations with good accuracy and precision. Then, the role of KgtP and YnfM are identified and characterized by using Glusor. Glusor also allows glutarate spatiotemporal resolution in live cells, facilitating

Gigaxonin Potentiates Antiviral Innate Immune Responses by Targeting cGAS and TREX1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TREX1 antagonizes DNA sensor cGAS by degrading cytosolic DNA. This work identifies gigaxonin as a molecular switch that coordinates DNA sensing and clearance pathways to amplify antiviral responses. Under the steady state, gigaxonin maintains cellular homeostasis by mediating TREX1 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. During DNA virus infection,

Clinically Inspired Multimodal Treatment Using Induced Neural Stem Cells‐Derived Exosomes Promotes Recovery of Traumatic Brain Injury through Microglial Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the therapeutic potential of iNSC‐Exo via local and systemic delivery in TBI mice. It is found that iNSC‐Exo enhances NRXN signaling through Microglia_Nrg3 and Microglia_Rarb, effectively promoting functional and neurological recovery, suggesting a new therapeutic strategy for TBI. Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) poses serious
