Nov 17, 2025Target binding of black phosphorus nanomaterial to polo-like kinase 1 for cancer chemotherapy: a mutual selection of nanomaterial and proteinThis work uncovered how black phosphorus nanomaterials (BPNMs) recognize and bind a key cell cycle regulator, polo like kinase 1 (PLK1). Understanding how nanomaterials interact with biological macromolecules is essential for advancing nanomedicine. Over the past two decades, the "protein corona" concept has guided research into nan... -
Nov 17, 2025Whole-Body PET/CT Study Maps Inter-Organ Metabolic Networks Across the Glycemic SpectrumThis research uncovered how metabolic coordination among major organs shifts across normal glycemia, prediabetes, and diabetes. Diabetes is now understood to be a systemic metabolic disorder, involving disruptions across multiple organs rather than a single glycemic pathway. Yet, in clinical practice, metabolic health is st... -
Nov 12, 2025Researchers Uncover the Mechanism of Plasma Membrane Remodeling that Drives Mitotic Cell RoundingResearchers uncovered a fundamental plasma membrane remodeling mechanism that governs the mitotic cell rounding. During cell division, adherent animal cells round up to create the precise spatial geometry required for accurate chromosome segregation, a process that depends on the coordinated remodeling of the... -
