Vitamin C‐Induced Photo‐Redox Threshold Enables High‐Fidelity Volumetric Printing of Collagen

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tomographic volumetric printing (TVP) of native proteins is limited by uncontrolled background crosslinking. Here, vitamin C is introduced as a biocompatible redox regulator to establish a tunable nonlinear polymerization threshold response for TVP.

GaSex Nanoparticles Modulate Neutrophil Function and Mitigate NET‐Driven Osteogenic Impairment in Osteomyelitis Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) emerge as a critical repair‐limiting factor in osteomyelitis, driving osteoblast mitochondrial dysfunction and excessive PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. Gallium–selenium nanoparticles (GaSex) scavenge reactive oxygen species, redirect neutrophils from NETosis toward bactericidal phagocytosis, eliminate methicillin‐

Efficacy of Pharmacological and Bioactive Compounds on Serum Ovalbumin-Specific Immunoglobulin E and Nasal Symptom Scores in Ovalbumin-Induced Allergic Rhinitis Animal Models: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Journal Research of Social Science, Economics, and Management
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a highly prevalent immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa. Ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR animal models are widely used to evaluate potential therapeutic agents; however, no quantitative synthesis of treatment effects across pharmacological interventions has been performed.

Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...

Linking Polyelectrolyte Modification and Enzyme‐Catalyzed Phenolic Acid Functionalization of Cellulose Fiber for Functional Foams

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Cellulose fibers functionalized using cationic poly(Dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (polyDADMAC) and laccase‐mediated ferulic acid system are processed into foams using different surfactants (Anionic, cationic, and non‐ionic). Fiber–surfactant interactions influence foam stabilization and porous structure formation during convective drying, producing

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a
