Under colitis, Gsdmd mediates the release of IL‐33 from the epithelium of pregnant mice. IL‐33 can cross the placenta and enhance the proliferative capacity of neural stem cells, ultimately resulting in behavioral deficits in the offspring. Excessive pyroptosis in the colonic epithelium also triggers the translocation of LPS, which in turn increases ...

Bio‐Propelled Stomatocyte Nanomotors with Glutathione‐Responsiveness for Osteoarthritis Treatment
Glutathione (GSH)‐responsive stomatocyte nanomotors with encapsulated MTX utilize oxygen to achieve autonomous motion and undergo GSH‐induced dissociation, enhancing cellular uptake, tissue penetration, and MTX release within the osteoarthritis (OA) region, thereby improving therapeutic efficacy.

Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...
