Photodynamics of Melanin Radicals: Contribution to Photoprotection by Melanin†
Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2022 AbstractThe mechanism of very efficient relaxation of the melanin‐photoexcited states, responsible for the photoprotective action of the pigment, remains a subject for intense investigation. The most recent study by C. Grieco, F. Kohl, and B. Kohler, entitled “Ultrafast radical photogeneration pathways in eumelanin,” addresses key issues of melanin ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An mRNA‐liposome vaccine via dissolving microneedles (ML‐DMN) enables efficient skin‐targeted delivery while preserving mRNA integrity and allowing sustained antigen expression. Unlike intramuscular (IM) injection, ML‐DMN engages skin‐resident immune cells, activates antigen‐presenting cells (APCs), and induces strong T cell and cytokine responses at ...
