Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

Turning Unpredictable Biomolecule Adsorption to Controlled Corona Formation: Focus on Carbon Nanomaterials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Controlling the protein corona formation onto carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) enhances their functionalities as platforms for cancer theranostics. Here, we reviewed the effects of the intrinsic and acquired properties of CNMs on protein corona formation, the consequent biological and toxicological outcomes, and the strategies to reshape corona formation ...

The influence of water mixtures on the dermal absorption of glycol ethers [PDF]

, 2007
Glycol ethers are solvents widely used alone and as mixtures in industrial and household products. Some glycol ethers have been shown to have a range of toxic effects in humans following absorption and metabolism to their aldehyde and acid metabolites ...

Bubble Formation Control: Fabrication of Centimeter‐Sized Tissue‐Like Constructs by Catalase‐Coated Oxygen‐Releasing Hydrogel

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Oxygen‐releasing hydrogels are widely used to support cell survival in 3D cultures and to promote wound healing. However, incorporating catalase to convert H2O2 into O2 often generates additional oxygen bubbles, leading to material instability which rarely addressed.

A Novel Workflow for Non-Animal PBK Modelling of UV Filters: Oxybenzone as a Case Study

Pharmaceuticals
Background/Objectives: Physiologically based kinetics (PBK) modelling provides (internal) exposure concentrations. We used a PBK model parameterized exclusively with in silico and in vitro data in a bottom-up approach to predict the pharmacokinetics of ...

Lipid Nanoparticle Co‐Delivery of mRNA and a Small Molecule Drug for Oral Cancer Chemoimmunotherapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Co‐encapsulation of p53 mRNA and the small molecule ciclopirox within a lipid nanoparticle yields an all‐in‐one chemoimmunotherapy for oral squamous cell carcinoma. The platform engages caspase‐driven apoptosis in cancer cells while repolarizing tumor‐associated macrophages, achieving tumor reduction in both p53‐susceptible and p53‐resistant models and

Assessment of the health risks of some potentially toxic elements’ (PTEs) intake via soil particles from a grassless sports facility in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, Nigeria

Discover Environment
The concentrations of some PTEs in soils from a grassless sports facility in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, were assessed to predict the health risks that may be associated with their intake as particles through inhalation and dermal absorption.

Radiofrequency Microneedling-Mediated Enhancement in Percutaneous Delivery of Topical Triamcinolone Acetonide: An In Vivo Quantitative Study

Life
Background: The stratum corneum (SC) limits the efficacy of topical corticosteroids. Radiofrequency microneedling (RFMN) may enhance drug delivery; however, quantitative in vivo human data remain limited.
