DNA nanostructures are programmable, biocompatible platforms for biomedicine; however, their mechanical properties are coupled to sequence and structural dimensions, limiting control over stiffness. Here, we report a paradigm shift from static design to mechanical engineering of DNA nanostructures. Using a nanoemulsion...

This work establishes spatial conformation as a programmable parameter for regulating nanoparticle biodistribution and clearance, thereby shifting the design paradigm from compositional adjustment to architectural control and opening avenues for targeted delivery, imaging, and immunotherapy.

Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a potentially treatable neurological disorder whose molecular basis remains incompletely understood. Metabolomic studies in iNPH are scarce and have focused largely on comparisons with other neurological disorders or on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) alone. Cons...

Microalgae are a source of valuable compounds with broad applications in cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals, renewable energy, and bioremediation. The present study employs the freshwater microalgae Tetradesmus dimorphus NUAC202 to investigate the effects of different microalgal growth media, like BG-11, Bold’s basal mediu...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is frequently accompanied by extrapulmonary manifestations, including abnormal liver biochemistry. Although inflammatory markers are widely used in clinical assessment, their associations with hepatic biochemical abnormalities in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 remain incompl...

The cardiovascular effects of smoking are generally evaluated in the context of acute ischemic injury. The possible association of smoking with subclinical cardiac autoimmunity and oxidative/inflammatory processes has been examined in relatively few studies. In this cross-sectional pilot study, we compared levels of ca...
Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS) is an extremely rare non-hereditary syndrome (approximately 500 cases reported worldwide), characterized by diffuse gastrointestinal polyposis, ectodermal changes (alopecia, skin hyperpigmentation, onychodystrophy), and protein-losing enteropathy. Patients with CCS have a significantly i...

The spliceosome became very complex in eukaryogenesis. The Group IIA intron progenitor was associated with a single protein, homologous to spliceosomal Prp8, but the LECA spliceosome included ~140 proteins. The acquisition of proteins was a neutral process, providing a pool of factors for the development of a coordinat...
