Recent advances of nanomaterials in imaging liver fibrosis
BMEMat, EarlyView.Schematic summary on the latest strategies of liver fibrosis imaging based on various nanomaterials. Abstract Liver fibrosis is a pathological process resulting from prolonged exposure to various injury factors. It is characterized by the abnormal proliferation and activation of hepatic stellate cells and excessive deposition of extracellular matrix ...

The contribution of extracellular RNA and its derived biomaterials in disease management
BMEMat, EarlyView.The implications of exRNA's biological function and the structural uniqueness of RNA help establish a close connection between RNA, material, and modern medicine. Abstract The RNA found in the circular system is known as extracellular RNA (exRNA). This kind of RNA has been found to play a biological role similar to that of a messenger. They can be used

Restoration of human tooth enamel
BMEMat, EarlyView.Human tooth enamel has remarkable properties but lacks self‐repair ability. Existing restorative materials cannot fully replicate enamel's microstructure and function, resulting in low restorative efficiency. This review summarizes the formation process and characteristics of enamel, and current restorative materials and future research directions are ...

On the geometry and conformation of starburst dendrimers [PDF]
arXiv, 1995 In this work, we propose a geometrical model for the study of conformational properties of a starburst dendrimer with the topology of a truncated Bethe lattice. A convenient embedding of the Bethe lattice in the hyperbolic plane is used to study the architecture of the dendrimer. As results, we find an upper bound for the molecular size and the density

Breaking barriers: Smart vaccine platforms for cancer immunomodulation
Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Despite significant advancements in cancer treatment, current therapies often fail to completely eradicate malignant cells. This shortfall underscores the urgent need to explore alternative approaches such as cancer vaccines. Leveraging the immune system's natural ability to target and kill cancer cells holds great therapeutic potential ...

Combating cancer immunotherapy resistance: a nano‐medicine perspective
Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Cancer immunotherapy offers renewed hope for treating this disease. However, cancer cells possess inherent mechanisms that enable them to circumvent each stage of the immune cycle, thereby evading anti‐cancer immunity and leading to resistance.

Advances in Cytosolic Delivery of Proteins: Approaches, Challenges, and Emerging Technologies
Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.Proteins regulate almost all biological processes, and overcoming the protein's natural membrane inpermeability will provide a unique opportunity for intracellular targeting of related therapeutic proteins. Chemical modification of proteins and different types of delivery vectors can mediate intracellular transport of proteins, providing new ideas for ...
