Article Abstract
Macrophages play pivotal roles in the immune response, participating in both inflammatory and pro-healing processes. Like other cells, macrophages continually survey their microenvironment through mechanosensing, adapting their intracellular organization in response to mechanical signals. In this study, we elucidate how macrophages perceive the topographical cues of wrinkled surfaces through actin-based structures, which align with the main pattern direction, thus modulating cell cytoskeletal dynamics. Given that such alterations may regulate mechanosensitive gene expression programs, exploring cellular responses to biomaterial design becomes crucial for developing biomaterials that mitigate adverse reactions.

Innate immune cells can acquire a memory phenotype, termed trained immunity, but the mechanism underlying the regulation of trained immunity remains largely elusive. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of Aurora kinase A (AurA) dampens trained immunity induced by β-glucan. ATAC-seq and RNA-seq analysis reveal that AurA inhibition restricts chromatin accessibility of genes associated with inflammatory pathways such as JAK-STAT, TNF, and NF-κB pathways.

Hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress and inflammation critically impair diabetic bone defect repair. Here, a radially oriented microchannel scaffold (D-GSH@QZ) was developed via a directional freezing technique integrated with photo-cross-linking strategies. The scaffold was fabricated from gelatin methacryloyl, silk fibroin methacryloyl, and nanohydroxyapatite (HAp) to mimic the natural bone matrix, while incorporating quercetin-loaded ZIF-8 nanoparticles (Qu@ZIF-8) for pathological microenvironment modulation.

Osteoarthritis (OA), the prevalent debilitating joint disorder, is accelerated by dysregulated intercellular crosstalk, yet the role of fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS)-derived extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) in disease progression remains to be elucidated. Here, integrative analysis of clinical specimens, animal models, and publicly available datasets revealed significant alterations in exosomal pathways within OA synovium. Proteomic profiling revealed distinct molecular signatures in EVPs derived from inflammatory and senescent FLSs, reflecting the pathophysiological status of their parent cells.

Surgical resection remains the frontline intervention for cancer; however, postoperative tumor recurrence and wound infection remain critical unmet challenge in surgical oncology. Herein, an all-in-one nanowired hydrogel (V-Hydrogel) is developed through a facile one-step assembly employing enzyme-mimetic VO nanowires and bactericidal crosslinker THPS. The V-Hydrogel reserves the glutathione peroxidase-, peroxidase-, catalase-, and oxidase-mimetic enzymatic activities derived from vanadium oxide nanowires, thereby exhibiting efficient tumor-specific catalytic therapy.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Emerging evidence suggests that microplastics and nanoplastics (NPs) pose significant health risks. When inhaled, these tiny particles can accumulate in the lungs, triggering inflammation, oxidative stress, and other disruptions in pulmonary function.
