Durable Anti‐fogging Polymer Coatings Based on C,H Insertion Cross–linking (CHic) That Are User and Environmentally Friendly

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Highly photoreactive polymer networks prevent fogging by forming uniform water films. Activated by visible light and cross‐linked by CH insertion, these coatings exhibit excellent water film formation, transparency, and durability, even after frequent washing.

Immune Checkpoint PD‐L1 Modulates Retinal Microglial Activation to Alleviate Vascular Leakage in Choroidal Neovascularization via ERK

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PD‐L1 limits neuroinflammation in neovascular AMD by modulating microglial activation. Its deficiency exacerbates vascular leakage and choroidal neovascularization (CNV) via ERK signaling, while enhancing PD‐L1 reduces inflammation and neovascularization. Targeting PD‐L1 may offer a novel immunomodulatory strategy for NVAMD.
