Endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) execute the biogenesis of late endosomal multivesicular bodies (MVBs). The ESCRT pathway has traditionally been viewed as a means by which transmembrane proteins are degraded in vacuoles/lysosomes. More recent studies aimed at understanding the broader functions of ESCRTs have uncovered unexpected links with pathways that control cellular metabolism. Central to this communication is TORC1, the kinase complex that controls many of the catabolic and anabolic systems. The connection between TORC1 activity and ESCRTs allows cells to quickly adapt to the stress of nutrient limitations until the longer-term autophagic pathway is activated. Increasing evidence also points to ESCRTs regulating RNA interference (RNAi) pathways that control translation.

This study aimed to investigate the role of Piezo1 in nasal epithelial barrier dysfunction in allergic rhinitis (AR) using both in vitro and in vivo experimental methods. A total of 79 human nasal mucosal samples were collected, including 43 from AR patients and 36 from healthy controls. Additionally, 12 BALB/c mice were used for the in vivo experiments.

Sublethal tumor cells have an urgent need for energy, making it common for them to switch metabolic phenotypes between glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) for compensatory energy supply; thus, the synchronous interference of dual metabolic pathways for limiting energy level is essential in inhibiting sublethal tumor growth. Herein, a multifunctional nanoplatform of Co-MOF-loaded anethole trithione (ADT) and myristyl alcohol (MA), modified with GOx and hyaluronic acid (HA) was developed, namely, CAMGH. It could synchronously interfere with dual metabolic pathways including glycolysis and OXPHOS to restrict the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) supply, achieving the inhibition to sublethal tumors after microwave (MW) thermal therapy.

Background: Dysbiosis of the nasal microbiome is considered to be related to the acute exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis (AECRS). The microbiota in the nasal cavity of AECRS patients and its association with disease severity has rarely been studied. This study aimed to characterize nasal dysbiosis in a prospective cohort of patients with AECRS.

Improving catalytic performance by controlling the microstructure of materials has become a hot topic in the field of photocatalysis, such as the surface defect site, multistage layered morphology, and exposed crystal surface. Due to the differences in the metal atomic radius (Mn and Cd) and solubility product constant (MnS and CdS), Mn defect easily occurred in the S/MnCdS (S/0.4MCS) composite.

ConspectusWater-in-salt electrolytes (WiSEs) are promising electrolytes for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), offering critical advantages like nonflammability and improved safety. These electrolytes have extremely high salt concentrations and exhibit unique solvation structures and transport mechanisms dominated by the formation of ion networks and aggregates. These ion networks are central to the performance of WiSEs, govern the transport properties and stability of the electrolyte, deviating from conventional dilute aqueous or organic electrolytes.
