Vegetable Oil–Mediated Transesterification as a Green Route to Tune Ethyl Cellulose Properties
Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.An environmentally conscious strategy for augmenting the hydrophobicity of ethyl cellulose polymer via a transesterification reaction using renewable vegetable oil. ABSTRACT The inherent hydrophilicity of biopolymers presents significant limitations to their implementation, particularly in coating and packaging applications.

Cell membrane‐coated nanoparticles for dermatological diseases
VIEW, EarlyView.Skin disorders are challenging to treat due to complex barrier functions and limited conventional therapies. Biomimetic cell membrane‐coated nanoparticles (CM‐NPs) offer a superior nanomedicine approach by evading immune detection and enabling precise targeting.

PDE4D and PDE3B orchestrate distinct cAMP microdomains in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Basal conditions: •Ins/PDE3B lowers cytoplasmic cAMP (cyt‐cAMP) without affecting plasma membrane cAMP (pm‐cAMP). •Insulin decreases lipid droplet cAMP (LD‐cAMP) independent of PDE3B. •FGF1/PDE4D modestly reduces both cyt‐ and pm‐cAMP, while PDE4D alone can modulate LD‐cAMP. ISO stimulation: •Ins/PDE3B has minimal impact on cyt‐cAMP.
