Micro‐ and nanomotors in biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Micro‐ and nanomotors (MNMs), as autonomous devices converting chemical or external energy into mechanical propulsion, have emerged as transformative drug delivery platforms in biomedicine. This review systematically outlines the design principles governing MNMs' propulsion and operation, highlights the applications of MNMs in disease treatment, and ...

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.

Bypassing Endocytic Barriers: Visualizing Membrane Fusion and Endosomal Escape of Cubic Phase Lipid Nanoparticles (Cubosomes)

Small, EarlyView.
This study uses advanced microscopy techniques, including transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cryogenic SEM, and live‐cell fluorescence imaging, to investigate lipid cubosome interactions with mammalian cells. It provides the first direct nanoscale evidence of cubosome membrane fusion with plasma and endosomal ...

Plasma Functionalization Enables Diffusion Control of Reactive Oxygen Species

Small, EarlyView.
Plasma surface functionalization of thin films enables controlled delivery of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by catalytic coatings. This approach ensures efficacy driven by radical activity rather than direct redox reactions or leaching. The selective release of radicals with distinct lifetimes is linked to both antimicrobial and antiviral ...
