Liposomal Delivery of L‐2‐Hydroxyglutarate for Targeting Epigenetic Dysregulation in Osteoarthritis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Osteoarthritis involves cartilage degeneration, inflammation, and epigenetic dysregulation. A liposomal formulation of the TET1 inhibitor L‐2‐hydroxyglutarate to overcome rapid joint clearance was developed. The formulation showed good physicochemical properties, reduced inflammatory and catabolic gene expression in chondrocytes, and alleviated ...

Solid–Liquid Triboelectric Nanogenerators as Physicochemical Encoders for Intelligent Liquid Recognition

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Solid–liquid triboelectric nanogenerators are conceptualized as dynamic physicochemical encoders that encode intrinsic liquid properties into distinguishable triboelectric fingerprints. This review provides a unified framework for these platforms, covering sensing mechanisms in droplet impact, continuous flow, and immersion modes.
