Summary: Due to antibiotic misuse and the increase in drug-resistant bacteria, it is crucial to develop new antibacterial strategies for treating infected wounds. In this study, stable tricomplex molecules (PA@Fe) were synthesized by combining protocatechualdehyde (PA) and ferric iron (Fe), and embedded in a gelatin matrix to create Gel-PA@Fe hydrogels. The embedded PA@Fe acted as a crosslinker, improving the mechanical, adhesive, and antioxidant properties of the hydrogels through coordination and dynamic Schiff base bonds. It also functioned as a photothermal agent, effectively killing bacteria by converting near-infrared (NIR) light into heat. In vivo evaluation using an infected full-thickness skin wound mice model demonstrated that Gel-PA@Fe hydrogels promoted collagen deposition and accelerated wound closure, indicating their potential in enhancing the healing process of infected wounds.

Summary: Clam heparinoid G2 and its depolymerized derivatives DG1 and DG2 have shown excellent fibrinolytic and anticoagulant activity. Results indicate that G2 has a high anticoagulant effect, while DG2 has a greater thrombolytic activity. Furthermore, oral administration of DG1 reduces thrombus formation, increases tissue-type plasminogen activator levels, and improves changes in intestinal bacteria. These findings suggest that DG1 could be an oral agent with antithrombotic properties.

Summary: This study developed an effective prognostic signature for predicting colorectal cancer (CRC) by evaluating the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling. The signature was significantly associated with CRC survival and correlated with the tumor immune microenvironment. The hub gene Caveolin-1 (CAV1) within the signature was found to inhibit cell proliferation, induce apoptosis and senescence, and suppress tumor angiogenesis in CRC. This research highlights the importance of the STAT regulator CAV1 and suggests that modulating STAT and its regulators could be a promising strategy for CRC in clinical practice.

Summary: Liver disease is a major cause of global mortality, and identifying biomarkers for diagnosing its progression is crucial for improving outcomes. Targeted mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for verifying biomarker candidates and clinical applications, particularly for glycoproteins translation. However, the limitation of analyzing only one sample per run has become apparent. In this study, a high-throughput intact N-glycopeptides quantification strategy was developed, allowing the validation of 20 samples per run with an average analysis time of 3 minutes per sample. The strategy was applied in a cohort of 461 serum samples and identified a panel of 10 IgG N-glycopeptides that have strong clinical utility in evaluating the severity of liver disease.
