Anti-HIV-1 Activity of the Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor ACC017
VirusesHIV-1 integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are pivotal to antiretroviral therapy. However, the emergence of drug-resistant mutations necessitates the development of new agents. Here, we present ACC017 as a novel INSTI candidate.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.We have developed a smart hair‐repair ingredient based on β‐carboxylic acid amide that undergoes negative‐to‐positive charge conversion under mildly acidic conditions. The initial negative charge facilitates deep penetration into the hair fiber, while the subsequent positive charge enables re‐bonding with sulfonate groups in damaged hair keratin.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Dissolvable microneedle (MN) device containing Bacillus paralicheniformis. The polymeric matrix encapsulates and protects the bacteria, preserving their viability while enabling in situ production and release of γ‐polyglutamic acid. The bacteria are delivered into the skin via 500 µm‐long microneedles, and remain detectable on the skin 24 h post ...

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...
