Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies for Minority Cell‐Induced Paclitaxel Resistance and Tumor Progression Mediated by Mechanical Forces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study provides new perspectives into the interactions between mechanical forces and cellular dynamics within the tumor microenvironment, particularly elucidating how minority Paclitaxel‐resistant cancer cells (MRCs) promote tumor progression and treatment resistance through mechanical forces and also providing effective treatment strategies for ...

Flavonifractor Plautii or Its Metabolite Desaminotyrosine as Prophylactic Agents for Alleviating Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome is a potential target for treating cardiovascular disease. It is found that prophylactic administration of Flavonifractor plautii or its metabolite desaminotyrosine (DAT) exerts pleiotropic cardioprotective effects via promoting cardiomyocyte survival and attenuating cardiac inflammation against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R ...

Distinct CTC Specific RNA Profile Enables NSCLC Early Detection and Dynamic Monitoring of Advanced NSCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A quantitative CTC RNA assay is developed by incorporating multi‐antibody‐based CTC isolation and specific mRNA quantification using RT‐ddPCR. The NSCLC CTC ScoreD demonstrates high accuracy for early‐stage NSCLC detection, significantly outperforming serum CEA. NSCLC CTC ScoreM exhibits a more accurate early‐warning of responses to different therapies

Identification of CD38high Monocyte as a Candidate Diagnostic Biomarker and Therapeutic Target for Sepsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that CD38high monocytes discriminate sepsis and sterile inflammation and are associated with 28‐day mortality in bacterial sepsis. Targeting CD38 therapy reduces inflammatory response in monocytes and in sepsis mice model. Mechanistically, CD38‐HIF‐1α/glycolysis/MGO loop exacerbates sepsis‐induced immune dysregulation.
