Abstract:The ideal engineered microbial smart-drug should be capable of functioning on demand at specific sites in vivo. However, precise regulation of engineered microorganisms poses challenges in the convoluted and elongated intestines. Despite the promising application potential of optogenetic regulation strategies based on light signals, the poor tissue penetration of light signals limits their application in large experimental animals. Given the rapid development of ingestible electronic capsules in recent years, … Show more
