Meningeal Lymphatic LTBR Deficiency Links Spinal Cord Injury to Secondary Brain Pathology
Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces remote brain alterations beyond the injured spinal cord. This study links dysfunction of meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs) to neuroinflammation and neuronal injury after SCI. LTBR‐mediated lymphatic restoration improves meningeal lymphatic integrity and neurological outcomes, highlighting LTBR as a potential regulator ...

RU@PEI‐ZIF integrates dsDNA scavenging with local cGAS inhibition to suppress the dsDNA–cGAS–STING/Netrin‐1 axis in intervertebral disc degeneration. By attenuating nucleus pulposus cell senescence, inflammatory and matrix‐catabolic responses, and pathological sensory innervation, this dual‐functional nanoplatform preserves disc integrity and reduces ...

Site‐Specific Protein Bioconjugation Through Cellular Incorporation of Noncanonical Amino Acids
Genetic code expansion (GCE) enables site‐specific installation of noncanonical amino acids containing bioorthogonal conjugation handles, allowing precise, homogeneous protein modification. This review examines the principles of orthogonal translation, surveys the chemistries available for chemoselective labeling, and highlights emerging multi‐site ...

Splenic Tropism and Spleen‐Modulated Systemic Inflammation in Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria
ABSTRACT In chronic Plasmodium vivax (Pv) infection, the spleen accounts for over 98% of total‐body parasite biomass. Whether splenic tropism also occurs in acute infection and how the spleen influences pathogenesis have not been systematically explored. In Papua, Indonesia, we compared clinical and hematology data in 24 spleen‐intact and 25 previously

Structure and Function of a Multi‐Megadalton Virus‐Like Proteolytic Dodecahedron
Zuzalysin, a virulence metallopeptidase of the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, is secreted as a latent, flexible ≈95‐kDa monomer. Calcium triggers cysteine‐switch activation and hierarchical assembly into pentamers, bipentamers, tripentamers, and a ≈5.6‐MDa, ≈355‐Å dodecahedron. Structures at 1.8–3.6 Å reveal a virus‐sized catalytic cage

Repeat expansion disorders frequently involve peripheral neuropathy, yet mechanisms remain unclear. Using a spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) Knock‐In Atxn3Q300/Q6, we identify progressive sensorimotor deficits, peripheral nerve pathology, and dorsal root ganglia RNA splicing dysregulation.

Circulating Exosomes Drive Persistent Neuronal Dysfunction in Post‐Herpetic Neuralgia Patients
Proposed model of exosome‐mediated neuronal dysfunction in post‐herpetic neuralgia (PHN). (1) Circulating, non‐pathogenic exosomes maintain homeostatic processes in healthy skin, where sensory nerve fibers innervate the epidermis and dermis. (2) During acute zoster, reactivating varicella zoster virus (VZV) travels down neurites to the skin causing ...
