Enhanced Synergistic Photothermal–Chemotherapy in Bacterial Keratitis Treatment Using Halogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks (XOFs) Based on N⋯Br+⋯N Bonds

Aggregate, EarlyView.
Two novel XOFs based on [N···Br+···N] interactions were constructed. The XOFs(Br) deliver superior antibacterial properties compared with XOFs(I), due to a greater oxidation capability. Moreover, XOF(Br)‐TPPA, exhibiting greater hydrophilicity, shows superior antibacterial properties relative to XOF(Br)‐TPPE, which is weakly hydrophilic.

Astaxanthin ameliorates benzalkonium chloride–induced dry eye disease through suppressing inflammation and oxidative stress via Keap1‐Nrf2/HO‐1 signaling pathways

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The flowchart of this research. Abstract Background Dry eye disease (DED) predominantly results from elevated tear film osmolarity, which can not only cause ocular inconvenience but may lead to visual impairments, severely compromising patient well‐being and exerting substantial economic burdens as well.

The NLRP3 inflammasome pathway contributes to chronic inflammation in experimental autoimmune uveitis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The present study investigates the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the chronicity of ocular inflammation in uveitis using the experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) model. Whole eyes collected from EAU mice, 12 weeks post induction, were sectioned and subjected to immunohistochemistry. The confocal images from these sections were then assessed for the

Krüppel‐like factor 4 transcription factor in blood–brain barrier endothelial cells: A potential role in Alzheimer's disease

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
KLF4 (Krüppel‐like factor 4) plays a protective role in blood–brain barrier (BBB). KLF4 plays an ambiguous role in the central nervous system. KLF4 in the BBB endothelial cells could be a potential target for Alzheimer's disease. Abstract Alzheimer's disease is the most prevalent chronic neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, with no sufficient cure ...

Nonperfused Retinal Capillaries -- A New Method Developed on OCT and OCTA [PDF]

arXiv
To develop a new method to quantify nonperfused retinal capillaries (NPCs) by using co-registered optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA), and to evaluate NPCs in eyes with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Multiple consecutive 3x3-mm OCT/OCTA scans were obtained using a commercial device (Solix;

Antibacterial hydrogel: The sniper of chronic wounds

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The treatment of chronic wounds has always been an important challenge in the medical field. We focus on hydrogels not only because they provide a moist healing environment but also because compared with traditional dressings, they can effectively prevent and treat infections, reduce wound pain and scar formation.

Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities

Cancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.
