Microtopography enhances intestinal drug absorption via Piezo1‐mediated tight junction modulation

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Microtopography‐driven enhancement of oral peptide drug delivery by activating Piezo1 channels significantly improves paracellular permeability and bioavailability, offering a novel approach for optimizing macromolecule absorption in pharmaceutical formulations.

Eudragit®‐engineered pH‐responsive probiotic microspheres with enhanced gastrointestinal resistance and prolonged storage stability for inflammatory bowel disease therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of AMS@Eud core‐shell microspheres, combining calcium alginate and pH‐responsive Eudragit® L100, which exhibit exceptional gastrointestinal resistance and long‐term storage stability (only 5.28%–9.09% viability loss over 35 days at 4–25°C), and effectively alleviate inflammatory bowel disease via gut microbiota ...

National Identity Meaning and Attitudes Toward War, Peace, and the Future of Ukraine

Conflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The link between attitudes and social identity is complex, influencing perceptions, motivations, and actions. Social psychological research mainly focused on the role of attitude in identity formation, particularly in the contexts of social movements and collective action.

R40.76 binds to the α domain of ZO-1: role of ZO-1 (α+) in epithelial differentiation and mechano-sensing

R40.76 binds to the α domain of ZO-1: role of ZO-1 (α+) in epithelial differentiation and mechano-sensing
The barrier function of epithelia and endothelia depends on tight junctions, which are formed by the polymerization of claudins on a scaffold of ZO proteins. Two differentially spliced isoforms of ZO-1 have been described, depending on the presence of the α domain, but the function of this domain is unclear.

Desulfovibrio‐Hydrogen Sulfide Mediates Capsaicin‐Induced Oxidative Stress and Gut Inflammation via TXNIP/NLRP3 Pathway

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intake of capsaicin can disrupt the gut microecology and impact health, yet its underlying mechanism is not fully elucidated. This study, by establishing capsaicin‐induced human microbiota‐associated (HMA) mouse models revealed the molecular mechanism by which capsaicin perturbs the gut microbiota and metabolites, leading to intestinal ...

Nano‐plastics disrupt systemic metabolism by remodeling the bile acid–microbiota axis and driving hepatic–intestinal dysfunction

iMeta, EarlyView.
The pervasiveness of microplastic pollution poses a growing health risk, yet its long‐term metabolic consequences remain poorly defined. Here, we exposed mice to polyethylene terephthalate nanoparticle (NP) and combined histopathology, biochemistry, metabolomics, and metagenomics to resolve their interactions.

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.
