摘要:RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics are an emerging class of medicines that selectively target mRNA transcripts to silence protein production and combat disease. Despite the recent progress, a generalizable approach for monitoring the efficacy of RNAi therapeutics without invasive biopsy remains a challenge. Here, we describe the development of a self- reporting, theranostic nanoparticle that delivers siRNA to silence a protein that drives cancer progression while also monitoring the function...

摘要:The composition of ecological communities varies not only between different locations but also in time. Understanding the fundamental processes that drive species toward rarity or abundance is crucial to assessing ecosystem resilience and adaptation to changing environmental conditions. In plankton communities in particular, large temporal fluctuations in species abundances have been associated with chaotic dynamics. On the other hand, microbial diversity is overwhelmingly sustained by a rare ...

摘要:In order to deal with a complex environment, animals form a diverse range of neural representations that vary across cortical areas, ranging from largely unimodal sensory input to higher - order representations of goals, outcomes, and motivation. The developmental origin of this diversity is currently unclear, as representations could arise through processes that are already area- specific from the earliest developmental stages or alternatively, they could emerge from an initially common funct...

摘要:Thrombosis, induced by abnormal coagulation or fibrinolytic systems, is the most common pathology associated with many life- threatening cardio- cerebrovascular diseases. However, first - line anticoagulant drugs suffer from rapid drug elimination and risk of hemorrhagic complications. Here, we developed an in situ formed depot of elastin-like polypeptide (ELP)- hirudin fusion protein with a prodrug-like feature for long - term antithrombotic therapy. Highly secretory expression of the fusion ...

摘要:Brown- and - white giant pandas (hereafter brown pandas) are distinct coat color mutants found exclusively in the Qinling Mountains, Shaanxi, China. However, its genetic mechanism has remained unclear since their discovery in 1985. Here, we identified the genetic basis for this coat color variation using a combination of field ecological data, population genomic data, and a CRISPR-Cas9 knockout mouse model. We de novo assembled a long- read - based giant panda genome and resequenced the genome...

摘要:Elastin is an extracellular matrix material found in all vertebrates. Its reversible elasticity, robustness, and low stiffness are essential for the function of arteries, lungs, and skin. It is among the most resilient elastic materials known: During a human lifetime, arterial elastin undergoes in excess of 2 x 109 stretching/contracting cycles without replacement, and slow oxidative hardening has been identified as a limiting factor on human lifespan. For over 50 y, the mechanism of entropic ...

摘要:Heterogeneous high-valent cobalt-oxo [equivalent to Co(IV)=O] is a widely focused reactive species in oxidant activation; however, the relationship between the catalyst interfacial defects and equivalent to Co(IV)=O formation remains poorly understood. Herein, photoexcited oxygen vacancies (OVs) were introduced into Co3O4 (OV- Co3O4) by a UV-induced modification method to facilitate chlorite (ClOz) activation. Density functional theory calculations indicate that OVs result in low- coordinated ...
