Engineering a Tumor‐Targeted MgH2@Lip/PD‐L1 Nanoplatform for Synergistic Hydrogen Therapy and Immune Activation

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer‐related deaths worldwide, yet immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is often compromised by an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) with acidosis, hypoxia, and poor T cell infiltration. Here, we develop a TME‐responsive nanoplatform (MgH2@Lip/PD‐L1) that couples hydrogen gas therapy with PD ...

Climate Change and Energy Security Risk: Do Green Patents, Institutional Quality, and Human Capital Make a Difference?

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses a significant threat to global energy security, yet the mechanisms through which this relationship unfolds—and the factors that buffer their adverse impacts—remain underexplored. This study examines the link between climate change, proxied by CO2 emissions, and energy security risk (ESR), with a particular focus on the ...

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.
