Engineering Folic Acid‐Modified Nanoparticles to Enhance Letrozole's Anticancer Action
Folate‐functionalized, pH‐sensitive nanoparticles (NPs) are developed for the targeted delivery of letrozole (LTZ) in breast cancer therapy. LTZ‐loaded PCL‐co‐PEG NPs exhibit controlled release, enhanced cytotoxicity, and apoptosis induction in MCF‐7 cells.

Bioprinting offers a promising approach for repairing large peripheral nerve gap injuries, but suitable hydrogels remain limited. This study developed a visible light photocrosslinkable GelMA/PEGDA hybrid bioink and investigated how PEGDA molecular weight and concentration affect hydrogel properties.

Boron‐doped baghdadite (BAG)‐loaded polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane scaffolds produced by non‐solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) show higher hydrophilicity, bioactivity and cancellous‐bone‐like mechanics. The scalable BAG/PVDF composites offer a versatile alternative to traditional bone grafts for regenerative medicine. Abstract This study

Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery
This review article discusses the use of biodegradable polymers to address several grand challenges in agriculture: to improve the delivery of nitrogen and phosphorous to crops, to optimize plant uptake, and to enhance the recovery of these nutrients from wastewater, to recycle them and reduce water pollution. Abstract The current use of fertilizers is
