Universal Evil and Individual Good: From Chaos to Cosmos

, 2018
We often allocate evil to ‘others’; when the ‘others’ are simply different, far away, evil is partially projected outside or hidden in the unconscious. Mankind tends to reject the idea of taking on the responsibility for evil itself.

An all‐in‐one fucosylated gold nanocluster probe enables NIR‐II imaging and multi‐mechanistic therapy of acute kidney injury

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This study developed a fucoside‐targeted gold nanocluster probe that enables early NIR‐II imaging and multi‐mechanistic therapy for acute kidney injury, effectively mitigating oxidative stress, modulating inflammatory responses, and inhibiting ferroptosis to improve renal outcomes. Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a life‐threatening condition

Electron compensation‐gated nanomotor for immunomodulation and microenvironment remodeling in bacterial pneumonia therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A nanomotor featuring an “electronic lock” via electron compensation in an Au‐Ag alloy ensures therapeutic precision. Near‐infrared light acts as a key, unlocking on‐demand Ag+ release for synergistic bactericidal action and microenvironment remodeling to potently treat bacterial pneumonia. Abstract Bacterial pneumonia treatment is severely hampered by

Beyond antimicrobials: Ecological nano‐strategies for rebalancing dysbiotic oral microbial homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...

Probiotic spore‐based bioresponsive drug delivery for reversing inflammatory bowel disease and its associated anxiety and depression

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A probiotic spore‐based drug delivery system (BCS‐Que@ApNPs) provides excellent targeted delivery, bioresponsive drug release, and long‐term retention (over 48 h), making it suitable for oral treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and its associated anxiety and depression.

Substrate stiffness regulates cell fate and its applications in the repair of motor system: From two dimensions to three dimensions

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Substrate stiffness with different dimensions (2D and 3D) exerts a regulatory role in cellular behaviors, thereby governing cell fate decisions. Biomaterials with tunable stiffness exhibit substantial functional potential for the repair and regeneration of the motor system.

Defect‐engineered tungsten oxide nanowires as redox‐metabolic nanozymes for gut inflammation‐infection syndromes

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Defect‐engineered WO3 nanowires serve as a multifunctional nanozyme platform to treat IBD complicated by Salmonella co‐infection. By integrating catalytic ROS/RNS scavenging and targeted metabolic interference of pathogens via molybdenum substitution, these nanowires effectively resolve intestinal oxidative stress, inhibit infection, and restore ...

Engineering programmable peptide hydrogels for chronic refractory wounds: A mechanism‐driven framework

BMEMat, EarlyView.
To break the self‐perpetuating pathology of chronic wounds, we propose a mechanism‐driven engineering framework for peptide‐based hydrogels. This review elucidates a hierarchical strategy—from molecular design to intelligent, multi‐functional systems—that enables these programmable biomaterials to dynamically intervene in key pathological loops and ...

Back to Nature or Technology to the Rescue? Climate Managers' Preferences for Investment in Carbon Dioxide Removal

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms are increasingly looking into carbon dioxide removal (CDR), a set of options to take past emissions of greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Often two basic categories of CDR are distinguished: nature‐based solutions, such as planting trees or restoring wetlands, and technology‐based solutions, such as various forms of carbon capture ...
