Use of the "Ru-<sup>1</sup>O<sub>2</sub>-Hydrazide" System Catalyzed by Metallic Ruthenium Complexes to Decipher the Interaction Between Microbes and Host Cancer Cells. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The dynamic interplay between bacteria and host cancer cells plays a critical role in tumor microenvironment modulation, bacterial pathogenesis, and potential oncotherapy applications. However, traditional methods often fail to capture transient or spatially restricted molecular interactions at the bacteria‐cancer cell interface.
