Peptide‐Ligand Cooperative Interplay Drives Gold Nanoparticle Encapsulation by Protein Cages

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Gold nanoparticle encapsulation within protein cages is governed by salt‐dependent binding energetics and cooperative peptide–ligand interactions. Ligands enhance electrostatic attraction while peptides extend recruitment and prevent kinetic trapping, enabling robust cargo loading. This molecular‐level insight links experiments and simulations, guiding

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Encapsulin‐Protected Immunotherapeutic Complexes: Bacteria‐Derived Nanoparticles for mRNA Delivery to Eukaryotic Cells

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Here, we introduce a biological, self‐assembling supramolecular nanoparticle designed to encapsulate eukaryotic‐expressible mRNA within an encapsulin shell via an encapsulin‐RNA adaptor peptide (ERAP). This process occurs in bacteria, and the resulting complex can deliver its mRNA into eukaryotic cells, where it is expressed.

Conceptual, self-assembling graphene nanocontainers [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale, 2015
We show that graphene nano-sheets, when appropriately functionalised, can form self-assembling nanocontainers which may be opened or closed using a chemical trigger such as pH or polarity of solvent.

New Directions in Focused Ion Beam Induced Deposition for the Nanoprinting of Functional 3D Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 11, 5 June 2026.
Here, it is shown that focused ion beam induced deposition (FIBID) using helium and neon ions enables advanced high‐resolution 3D nanoprinting achieving precise multimaterial architectures and engineered internal voids. Thus, FIBID with finely focused noble gas ion species is presented as a unique platform for designing functional nanomaterials for ...
