Peptide Coacervates with Metal–Phenolic Membranes Modulate Glucose Metabolism and Enhance Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Peptide coacervates encapsulated with interferon‐α and membranized with metal–phenolic networks (PC‐IFNα@MPNs) are designed to reprogram glucose competition between tumor and cytotoxic T cells. This metabolic modulation enhances immunotherapy by suppressing tumor glycolysis and boosting T cell effector function.

Single-domain antibodies and their formatting to combat viral infections [PDF]

, 2018
Since their discovery in the 1990s, single-domain antibodies (VHHs), also known as NanobodiesA (R), have changed the landscape of affinity reagents. The outstanding solubility, stability, and specificity of VHHs, as well as their small size, ease of ...

Interfacial Chemistry Control of In Situ Grown Gold Nanoparticles on Functionalized MXene Nanosheets

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gold nucleation on MXene is governed by interfacial oxidation, not termination density. An interface‐resolved pathway is uncovered in which Au nucleates at TiO2/TiOx, guided by local reduction at the surface; where tailored functionalization directs when and where nuclei form, enabling the formation of predictable heterostructures.

Antiviral Replication Agents

, 2013
The last few decades have shown a great progress in the development of antiviral agents that were licensed for treatment of Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), herpesviruses, hepatitis viruses and respiratory viruses. The majority of viral infections clear spontaneously and are not in need for specific medical therapy.

Antimicrobial Multi‐Assay Evaluation of (Al‐Doped ZnO)‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag Nanocoatings: Impact of Direct and Indirect Mechanisms

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...
