DNA Double-decker Ring Scaffolded Nanodisc for Self-assembly of Membrane Protein into Lipid Bilayer

This study introduces a DNA-based nanodisc scaffold for membrane protein assembly, demonstrating its compatibility with various lipids and detergents.

The glomerulus as a selective gate for tumor-derived extracellular vesicles in urine

This study shows the glomerulus actively transports tumor-derived extracellular vesicles into urine, revealing a mechanism for their excretion and potential use in cancer diagnostics.

The uptake of small extracellular vesicles by recipient cells is facilitated by paracrine adhesion signaling

This study identifies the mechanisms by which recipient cells internalize small extracellular vesicles via paracrine adhesion signaling involving galectin-3, LAMP-2C, and Ca2+-dependent pathways.
