The consequence of st. 4 node grafting into st. 4 host embryos: the true and the erroneous. (A) Summary of our observations on the result of node grafting. The grafted node developed differently depending on whether the graft was on the anterior or posterior half of the embryo, separated by the horizontal broken line. Only after node grafting at an anterior position did the node-derived AME extend, to which the nearby epiblast converged and developed into the brain portions. (B) The kind of diagram published in many textbooks, which are erroneous. This method of systematic grafting has not been done previously (see Box 2). Node grafting does not elicit secondary posterior embryonic structures of host origin (e.g., somites) (see Figure 4).

Understanding the hazard posed by bioengineering requires the characterization of hazardous building blocks. Bioengineering enables the creation of novel or modified organisms through oligonucleotide synthesis and assembly of building blocks within a biological vehicle. These biological functional building blocks are inspired from sequences extracted and sequenced from natural organisms. Such organisms can be composed of hazardous and non-hazardous functional elements (denoted by the red and blue blocks, respectively). The hazardous functions within organisms may have arisen from environmental selective pressures such as virus mutation to enable, for example, a jump from a vector to a human host, or a transfer of transposable elements among species.

Functional biological hazards are differentiated from and include several functions beyond virulence factors. While some hazardous functions overlap with virulence factors, we define several hazardous functions outside the traditional definition of virulence factors. Many virulence factors that may be contained in avirulent organisms, such as siderophores and transcription factors, are not considered hazardous functions as they do not directly and uniquely perform hazardous functions. Hazardous functions are further described in the text and are color coded according coarse functional metadata groups as follows: Red—functions that do direct damage to cells such as toxins; Orange—functions involved in active host subversion or those involved in nonproteinacous toxin and drug pathways; Yellow—other virulence factors uniquely involved in pathogenicity (e.g., invasion), non-virulence factors that may contribute to detrimental host response (e.g., bioregulators and antibiotic resistance proteins), and prions; White—virulence factors that may also participate in non-hazardous microorganism functions; Gray—virulence factors that do not have a direct hazardous function. Note that the figure is non-exhaustive.

Hospital rankings for top-quartile hospitals (designated 1–51) based on observed HOB rates compared with the simple- and complex-model–derived SIR ranking.a Gray bars represent rank of the top quartile of hospitals based on observed unadjusted HOB rate per 100 admissions. Blue diamonds represent the simple model SIR-based rank. Orange circles represent the complex model SIR-based rank. aFor example, hospital 10 (of 51) is in the top 95th percentile based on observed (unadjusted) HOB; it drops in rank with simple model SIR adjustment to the 56th–60th percentile and further decreases to the 41st–45th percentile in the complex model SIR-adjusted model. Note that among the 51 hospitals, some also increased in rank after the complex-model SIR adjustment (ie, hospitals 13, 28, 34, 36, 40, 43, 47). Full movements of rankings in all 4 quartiles are summarized in Supplementary Table S3 (online).

Fitness landscape modelTumor stem cell phenotype can be represented as a fitness landscape model, where Lgr5+ve CBC and Lgr5−ve RSC represent distinct but interlinked fitness peaks situated along a phenotypic axis. (A) Epithelial cells “climb” these fitness peaks (arrows) through the combination of acquired epithelial mutations and the influence of microenvironmental signaling, placing them at distinct points within the fitness landscape. Bulk transcriptome data can be used to calculate the stem cell index, which reflects stem cell population admixture and can be used as a measure of individual tumor position within this phenotypic axis (boxes). (B) Application of a selective pressure to a fitness peak (e.g Lgr5+ CBC ablation) alters the morphogenic signaling landscape and shifts the stem cell equilibrium toward an alternative phenotype at day 1. Rapid regeneration of the lost CBC population restores the stem cell equilibrium after 5 days. These dynamic shifts can be measured by change in the stem cell index (boxes). Key: green dots, CBC cells; red dots, RSC cells; yellow dots, both marker-expressing cells; gray dots, no stem cell-marker-expressing cells.

Schematic summary of improved endogenous drug loading method. Protein drugs can be fused with special binding proteins and anchored on membrane proteins to improve drug loading. Special gene sequences can be added to RNA drugs, and the loading efficiency of drugs can be improved by interacting with corresponding RNA binding proteins. Or change the hydrophobicity of RNA drugs and increase the amount of RNA entering exosomes.
