Glycosylation, a fundamental biological process, involves the attachment of glycans to proteins, lipids, and RNA, and it plays a crucial role in various biological pathways. It is of great significance to obtain the precise spatial distribution of glycosylation modifications at the cellular and tissue levels. Here, we introduce LectoScape, an innovative method enabling detailed imaging of tissue glycomes with up to 1 μm resolution through image mass cytometry (IMC).

This manner neglects the diverse conditions in the pancancer and cancer subtypes of individual patients, resulting in suboptimal outcomes in diagnosis and treatment. To overcome this limitation, we shift from a blanket application of statistics to a focus on the explicit recognition of patient-specific abnormalities.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are the commonly used delivery tools for messenger RNA (mRNA) therapy and play an indispensable role in the success of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. Ionizable cationic lipids are the most important component in LNPs. Herein, we developed a series of new ionizable lipids featuring bioreducible disulfide bonds, and constructed a library of lipids derived from dimercaprol.
