Mechano‐Bactericidal Surfaces Achieved by Epitaxial Growth of Metal–Organic Frameworks
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mechano‐bactericidal surfaces based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are designed using a MOF‐on‐MOF strategy. Two methods of MOF surface assembly, in situ growth and ex situ dropcasting, are applied. Distinct mechano‐bactericidal actions are discussed, including stretching, impaling, and mechanical injury. Abstract Mechano‐bactericidal (MB) surfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies CD74⁺ macrophages as key drivers of synovial inflammation in osteoarthritis (OA). The flavonoid luteolin is predicted to inhibit this pathway by blocking Nuclear Factor Kappa‐light‐chain‐enhancer of Activated B cells (NF‐κB) signaling. To enhance delivery, a targeted nanoplatform (MDSPL) is developed.
