Lithium‐Charged Gold Nanoparticles: A New Powerful Tool for Lithium Delivery and Modulation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 Activity

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces glutathione‐stabilized gold nanoparticles for targeted lithium delivery (LiG‐AuNPs), enabling the controlled modulation of Glycogen Synthase Kinase‐3 (GSK‐3β). These non‐toxic, 2‐nm particles release lithium intracellularly, effectively inhibiting GSK‐3β in the brain without significant plasma lithium alterations.

Citrate‐Enhanced PCL Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates citrate‐enhanced polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds designed for bone tissue engineering. Utilizing 3D printing technology, four scaffold patterns (triple hexagon, grid, gyroid, zigzag) are evaluated for mechanical properties, cellular proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and gene expression.

Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings Based on Bioglass, Vitamin D3, and Melittin Deposited via MAPLE for Enhanced Osseointegration, Antibacterial Activity, and Corrosion Resistance of Titanium Implants

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of

Antimicrobial Multi‐Assay Evaluation of (Al‐Doped ZnO)‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag Nanocoatings: Impact of Direct and Indirect Mechanisms

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...

3D‐Printed Unibody Microfluidic Devices for Organ‐on‐Chip Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A practical approach is demonstrated to 3D printing unibody microfluidic Organ‐on‐Chip (OoC) devices using commercial resins and desktop DLP printers. The demonstrated functional devices support 2D monolayers, 3D spheroids, and barrier tissues. With optimised design and post‐processing techniques, leak‐free, biocompatible microchannels and membranes ...
