Self‐Immolative Activatable Nanoassembly toward Immuno‐Photodynamic Therapy in TME
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A quinone methide‐gated, self‐immolative, H2O2‐responsive nano‐photosensitizer (Pyz/PS) is developed for targeted immuno‐photodynamic therapy. Pyz/PS selectively activates within tumor microenvironments, restores photosensitizer activity, generates ROS, and depletes intracellular GSH, enhancing oxidative stress.

American journal of hematology/oncology, 2017 Hydroxyurea has proven clinical benefits and is recommended to be offered to all children with sickle cell anemia (SCA), but the optimal dosing regimen remains controversial. Induction of red blood cell fetal hemoglobin (HbF) by hydroxyurea appears to be

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Herein, an RBC membrane‐derived nanoparticle (CMN‐ICG) is engineered to efficiently deliver a sonosensitizing agent, indocyanine green (ICG), for sonotherapy of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). CMN‐ICG exhibits excellent cytocompatibility, significantly enhances hepatocyte uptake, and produces excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon ultrasound ...

Hereditary Persistence of Fetal Hemoglobin: A Benign Condition Causing Diagnostic Challenges in Hemoglobin Variants—A Case Report [PDF]
Indian Journal of Medical BiochemistryHereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) is a rare genetic condition characterized by elevated levels of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in adults due to β-globin gene cluster abnormalities.

Fetal hemoglobin does not inhibit Plasmodium falciparum growth.
Blood Advances, 2019 P falciparum growth is not inhibited in either cord or heterozygote hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin erythrocytes. P falciparum growth in fetal hemoglobin erythrocytes is oxygen independent.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A self‐gelling PG@PAC (POD/Gel‐CDH@PA/CHX) powder is developed for infected burn care in austere settings. Upon contact with wound exudate, it instantly forms an adhesive hydrogel, providing simultaneous hemostasis, broad‐spectrum antibacterial activity, reactive oxygen species scavenging, and immunomodulation. In a murine model of S.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Metallofullerenol Sc3N@C80(OH)18 demonstrates strong radioprotective properties as a scavenger of both short‐ and long‐lived radicals. The study reveals protection of human erythrocytes from γ‐radiation–induced biochemical damage via post‐irradiation removal of primary and secondary reactive oxidants, supported by pulse radiolysis kinetics.

3′HS1 CTCF binding site in human β-globin locus regulates fetal hemoglobin expression
eLife, 2021 Mutations in the adult β-globin gene can lead to a variety of hemoglobinopathies, including sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia. An increase in fetal hemoglobin expression throughout adulthood, a condition named hereditary persistence of fetal ...

g(HbF): a genetic model of fetal hemoglobin in sickle cell disease.
Blood Advances, 2018 Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is a strong modifier of sickle cell disease (SCD) severity and is associated with 3 common genetic loci. Quantifying the genetic effects of the 3 loci would specifically address the benefits of HbF increases in patients.
