Mechanically Regulated Nanozymes for Remote Metabolic Reprogramming and Precise Cancer Therapy
Inspired by mechanoenzymes, a ferrocene‐based mechanically regulated nanozyme converts acoustic shear force into enhanced peroxidase‐like activity by decreasing electron density and alleviating steric hindrance at the Fe active sites, thereby rewiring redox homeostasis. Leveraging this remote regulatory mechanism, a multienzyme‐regulated nanoreactor is

All three diastereoisomers of an esterase‐sensitive phosphotriester dCDN prodrug demonstrate improved activity. The (Rp,Rp) diastereoisomer shows the highest activity with an EC50 of 1.7 nM in STING activation and displays the most pronounced antitumor activity via intravenous administration, significantly suppressing tumor proliferation, extending the

Development of immunocompetent models for primary and metastatic ER+ breast cancer
This study explores syngeneic, immunocompetent models of ER+ breast cancer in 129S6/SvEv mice, using trackable tumor cells to model both primary tumors and metastasis. The models show promise, while also revealing limitations for studying advanced disease and immune interactions.

Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are
