Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Targeting eRNA‐Producing Super‐Enhancers Regulates TNFα Expression and Mitigates Chronic Inflammation in Mice and Patient‐Derived Immune Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Targeting eRNAs from TNFα‐associated super‐enhancers with ASOs effectively reduces TNFα expression and inflammatory responses in both mouse models and patient‐derived immune cells. The conserved nature of these regulatory regions between species highlights the potential of eRNA‐targeted approaches as a therapeutic strategy for chronic inflammatory ...
