Synthetic Strategy for mRNA Encapsulation and Gene Delivery with Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This research utilizes the ZIF‐8 for the encapsulation and intracellular delivery of nucleic acids, specifically mRNA, for applications in gene delivery. Integrating PEI addresses the issue of mRNA leakage from ZIF‐8, resulting in the delivery and expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in vitro and firefly luciferase in vivo.

Defect‐Induced Selectivity Modulation Using Copper Triazole Molecular Frameworks for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Cu‐triazole and D‐Cu‐triazole MOF is studied for eCO2RR. After introducing open metal sites and reducing the particle size through a competitive coordination strategy with N,N‐diethylformamide, the defects significantly enhance and alter the catalytic properties with increased selectivity for C2+ products. Abstract Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are
