Protease‐Activated Theranostic Nanomedicine for Endometriosis Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder that affects a substantial proportion of reproductive‐aged women. In this study, we identify aberrant overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) in endometriotic lesions and develop a novel multifunctional nanomedicine that integrates MMP‐9‐targeted therapy, ratiometric photoacoustic (PA ...

Material Coupling in Hybrid Neuromorphic Devices: From Fundamentals to System‐Level Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hybrid neuromorphic devices utilize heterointerfaces between emerging semiconductors, where charge transfer and trapping, ion or defect modulation, and photogating are translated into synaptic functions. This paper discusses coupling strategies that tailor interfacial electronic and ionic properties in organic semiconductors, metal oxides, two ...

Biomimetic Hybrid‐Membrane Nanoreactor for Deep‐Seated Photodynamic Immunotherapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Dual Catalysis‐Enhanced ROS Amplification and cGAS‐STING Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
UCNP@MnOx‐Hyp@HRM (UMHM) enables tumor targeting and accumulation. Under 808 nm NIR irradiation, PDT/CDT synergistically triggers ICD and cGAS–STING immunity for deep hepatocellular carcinoma therapy. ABSTRACT Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is promising against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Hemocompatible Glycogen‐Tissue Plasminogen Activator Complexes for Enhanced Blood Clot Dissolution

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Glycogen–heparin‐cRGD nanoparticles enable targeted delivery of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) to thrombi through activated platelet recognition. The hemocompatible hybrids minimize interactions with blood and immune cells while retaining enzymatic biodegradability.

Bioprinted Stiffness‑Tunable Pancreatic Microniches to Decode Early Tumor Initiation Mechanisms

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Stiffness‐tunable GelMA microniches generated by microvalve bioprinting preserve wild‐type acinar identity while revealing a nonlinear, Kras‐dependent response to matrix mechanics. Intermediate stiffness promotes acinar‐to‐ductal metaplasia and proliferation, defining a permissive mechanical window.

Biocompatible Conjugated Electrospinning Nanofibrous Membrane With Self‐Powered Piezoelectric Capacity for Accelerated Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐powered PCL/gelatin‐PVDF‐TrFE/MXene conjugated electrospun membrane integrates biocompatibility with enhanced piezoelectric responsiveness. Mechanical deformation is converted into localized electrical signals that stimulate wound‐repair cells proliferation and migration, promote angiogenesis and tissue remodeling, and accelerate full‐thickness ...
