Reverse‐Engineered Lipid Nanoparticles Harness Protein Corona Formation for Cytokine Sequestration and Combination Immunomodulatory Therapy

Small, Volume 22, Issue 55, 1 October 2026.
Bioinspired triglyceride‐ceramide lipid nanoparticles were reverse‐engineered from cytokine‐sequestering plant‐derived nanoparticles to capture pathological inflammatory mediators through protein corona formation. Dexamethasone‐loaded TCNPs combine extracellular cytokine sequestration with intracellular immunomodulation, reducing IL‐6, TNF‐α, and NF‐κΒ

Ultrasonication‐Induced Iridium Single‐Atom Decoration on Anodized NiO Nanosponge Electrocatalyst for Enhanced Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Small, Volume 22, Issue 57, 13 October 2026.
A facile one‐pot sonochemical strategy generates Ir single‐atom catalysts on nanostructured NiO for enhanced oxygen evolution reaction performance. Surface defects enable strong anchoring of Ir single atoms on NiO. The NiO‐0.5 Ir catalyst exhibits significantly improved activity, supported by structural, spectroscopic, and electrochemical analyses ...
