A Promising Point‐of‐Care Testing Strategy: Ultrasmooth Gold Nanogroove Arrays Biosensor Combined with Initial Rate Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reports a nanoplasmonic biosensing platform with exceptional surface sensitivity (0.618 nm nm−1, Δn = 0.117 nmol) and narrow linewidth (≈20 nm) under normal incidence. By integrating a miscellaneous‐protein strategy with initial rate analysis (IRA), this sensor can detect 1 ng mL−1 of AFP in serum with a broad linear range (1–104 ng mL−1 ...

Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Framework‐Based Self‐Monitoring Oxygen Economizer and ROS Amplifier for Enhanced Radiotherapy‐Radiodynamic Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A Fe (III)–Pt (II) porphyrin framework‐based radiosensitizer (FPTM‐LP) is constructed to serve as an oxygen economizer, hypoxia self‐monitoring device, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) amplifier. The glutathione (GSH)/pH‐responsive release of lonidamine achieves oxygen‐economization to combat hypoxia‐induced radioresistance guided by near infrared ...

Adipose Tissue Macrophages as Initiators of Exacerbated Periodontitis in Estrogen‐Deficient Environments via the Amplifier Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic systemic inflammation, worsened by estrogen deficiency, underlies and exacerbates periodontitis. Proinflammatory macrophages within visceral adipose tissue are hyperactivated due to hyper‐DNA methylation, releasing small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) similar to those of their parent cells.
