Tobacco Smoke Exposure From Prenatal To Adolescent Periods Drives IBD Pathogenesis: Dynamic DNA Methylation Signatures Across Lifespan Stages

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study illustrates that maternal smoking during pregnancy (MSDP) is an independent risk factor for IBD in offspring, and DNA methylation serves as a key mechanistic pathway connecting early‐life smoking exposure with IBD risk in offspring. That highlights the urgent need for preventive interventions targeting prospective parents and minors to ...

Decoding Proton‐Coupled Electron Transfer Mechanism of Nicotine for Multi‐Scenario Portable Electrochemical Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A key challenge in nicotine electroanalysis is the unresolved complexity of its interface process, which directly determines sensor metrics. Herein, the proton‐coupled electron transfer mechanism of nicotine is decoded for multi‐scenario portable electrochemical sensing.
