Combined Treatment (Ultraviolet-C/Physapruin A) Enhances Antiproliferation and Oxidative-Stress-Associated Mechanism in Oral Cancer Cells

Antioxidants, 2022
Physapruin A (PHA), a Physalis peruviana-derived withanolide, exhibits antiproliferation activity against oral and breast cancer cells. However, its potential antitumor effects in combined treatments remain unclear.

MRI Detection and Therapeutic Enhancement of Ferumoxytol Internalization in Glioblastoma Cells

Nanomaterials
Recently, the FDA-approved iron oxide nanoparticle, ferumoxytol, has been found to enhance the efficacy of pharmacological ascorbate (AscH−) in treating glioblastoma, as AscH− reduces the Fe3+ sites in the nanoparticle core.

Thermodynamic Limits to Molecular Doping in Conjugated Polymers: A Perspective on Phase Behavior and Miscibility

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular doping of conjugated polymers is fundamentally constrained by thermodynamic phase behavior. This Perspective reframes doping efficiency and stability in terms of miscibility limits, binodals, and solvus boundaries, highlighting the role of effective interaction parameters and charge transfer.

Programmable Budding and Fission of Janus Polymersomes for Tunable Cargo Release

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A thermodynamic framework establishes the conditions for the formation of kinetically stable Janus polymersomes using a solvent‐assisted strategy. Osmotic stress subsequently drives their membrane remodeling from reversible budding to controlled fission.
