Differential Compartmentalization of Enzymatic Reactions for Lactate Signaling Across Protocells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two populations of protocells consisting of giant unilamellar vesicles containing active species and distinct artificial organelles are competent of collective behavior by mimicking production, intercellular communication, and detection of the bioinspired signal molecule lactate. Enzymatic cascade reactions within artificial organelles demonstrate that

Endocytic Programming via Porous Silicon Nanoparticles Enhances TLR4 Nanoagonist Potency for Macrophage‐Mediated Immunotherapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Porous silicon nanoparticles (PSiNPs) reprogram macrophage endocytosis of manganese@albumin‐based TLR4 nanoagonists, driving TRIF‐biased TLR4 signaling, eliciting robust proinflammatory responses, and potentiating macrophage‐mediated immunotherapeutic effects against NSCLC.

Gastric electrical stimulation: An emerging therapy for children with intractable gastroparesis

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2019
Management of gastroparesis remains challenging, particularly in pediatric patients. Supportive care and pharmacological therapies for symptoms remain the mainstay treatment. Although they are effective for mild and some moderately severe cases, often time they do not work for severe gastroparesis.

Transducer Materials Mediated Deep Brain Stimulation in Neurological Disorders

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses advanced transducer materials for improving deep brain stimulation (DBS) in neurological disorders. These materials respond to light, ultrasound, or magnetic fields, enabling precise, less invasive neuromodulation. Their stimulus‐responsive properties enhance neural control and adaptive therapy, paving the way for next‐generation ...

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Therapy for Dysphagia Caused by Wilson's Disease

Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2012
Wilson's disease is an autosomal recessive disorder of abnormal copper metabolism. Although dysphagia is a common complaint of patients with Wilson's disease and pneumonia is an important cause of death in these patients, management of swallowing function has rarely been reported in the context of Wilson's disease.

Chemo‐Mechanical Coupling in Hydrogels: Dynamics in the Diffusion‐Limited Regime

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A time‐dependent continuum model is developed to capture the transient swelling dynamics of chemo‐mechanical hydrogels. By coupling chemical reactions, solvent transport, and polymer deformation, volume phase transitions, reaction kinetics, and transient mechanical instabilities are analyzed.
