Research Background Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a rare genetic skin disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene, leading to the absence or dysfunction of type VII collagen (C7). Type VII collagen is a crucial protein for maintaining skin structural stability, and its deficiency makes patients’ skin extremely fragile, pr...

A Novel Study on Multifunctional Hydrogels for Promoting Infected Wound Healing In the current clinical setting, infected wounds, especially those caused by antibiotic-resistant pathogens, have become a major challenge. These chronic or hard-to-heal wounds often suffer from delayed healing processes due to excessive inflammation, bacterial biofilm ...

Exploration of a Novel Pulmonary Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Therapy Based on MIL-100(Fe) In recent years, global public health has faced numerous severe challenges, particularly since 2019 with the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic. The high transmission rate and persistence of the virus have exposed bottlenecks in current prevention and treatme...

A Novel Dual-Pipeline Lactate Removal Strategy for Sepsis Treatment Background Sepsis, defined as multi-organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host immune response to bloodborne infection, remains a severe global public health issue. Despite advances in modern medicine, the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis pose significant challenges. Statisti...

Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Common Features of Neuroinflammation in Cerebrospinal Fluid Neuroinflammation is a core pathological feature of neurological diseases, involving complex interactions between the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the peripheral immune system. Although previous studies have revealed the clonal expansion of lymphocytes in the ...

Advances in Paper-Based Sensors for the Detection of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most significant global public health challenges today. With the extensive use and misuse of antibiotics, more and more bacteria have developed resistance, rendering traditional treatments ineffective. According...

Photothermal MXene-Embedded Tannin-Eu³⁺ Particles as In Situ Bacterial Vaccines for Seawater-Immersed Infected Wounds Academic Background Seawater-immersed wounds are prone to severe infections due to the low temperature, high salinity, and bacteria-rich environment, which hinder wound healing. Traditional antibacterial strategies often fail to pro...

Investigating the Validity of mCIM and sCIM Phenotypic Methods in Screening Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates Producing IMP, VIM, and NDM Metallo-β-Lactamases from Burn Wounds Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterium widely found in the environment, particularly in hospital settings. It is the second most common pathogen causing...

Aztreonam-Avibactam Activity Against Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Complex Background The Klebsiella pneumoniae complex (KPC) is a group of opportunistic pathogens that pose a serious threat to public health. In recent years, the infection rate of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae has significantly increased, leading to ex...

Therapeutic Potential of Isoallolithocholic Acid in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Peritoneal Infection Background Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), discovered in 1961, has become one of the most common antibiotic-resistant bacteria worldwide. MRSA infections can lead to fatal sepsis, pneumonia, and high rates of skin...
