Single‐Cell RNA Seq in Sydenham Chorea Shows B Cell HLA‐DR/DQ Upregulation and Plasma Cell Proteasomal Activation

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pathogenesis of Sydenham chorea remains unclear. We report a 10‐year‐old girl presenting with subacute chorea and mild carditis following Streptococcal throat infection. Single‐cell RNA sequencing on 30,794 peripheral immune cells from the patient and two sex‐matched controls revealed nine immune cell clusters.

Gradients of Aliveness and Engineering: A Taxonomy of Fungal Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This paper explores the potential of fungal engineered living materials (ELMs), examining fungal biology and growth mechanisms, which underpin their development. It presents a classification framework based on aliveness, scaffold composition, and engineering degree. Unique properties such as self‐healing, biosensing, and bioremediation are highlighted,

A Multicenter Validation of a Fully Automated Chemiluminescence Immunoassay for Plasma Elafin in Psoriasis Diagnosis and Severity Assessment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The fully automated CLIA demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity for plasma Elafin, achieving 88% diagnostic accuracy and an AUC of 0.92 for psoriasis detection in a multicenter cohort. The assay reliably distinguishes psoriasis from other dermatoses, objectively stratifies disease severity, and allows longitudinal monitoring, supporting its ...

In situ ambient vibration modal analysis of saguaro cacti (Carnegiea gigantea)

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The structural and dynamic properties of columnar cacti are key inputs for stability analyses; however, no previous studies have been able to resolve these properties from full‐scale tests in situ. Methods I present an approach using non‐destructive ambient vibration data to measure the resonance properties (modal frequencies and mode ...
