Gasotransmitters in Modern Medicine: Promises and Challenges in the Use of Porous Crystalline Carriers

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective provides an overview of the growing interest in utilizing various gasotransmitters—small gaseous signaling molecules namely nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S)—for several therapeutic applications, with emphasis on the potential use of porous materials as carriers to provide safe and controlled local ...

Hole Scavenging and Photo-Stimulated Recombination of Electron-Hole Pairs in Aqueous TiO2 Nanoparticles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
It is shown that 532 nm and 1064 nm laser photoexcitation of trapped electrons generated by 355 nm photolysis of aqueous titania (TiO2) nanoparticles causes rapid photobleaching of their absorbance band in the visible and near IR. This photobleaching occurs within the duration of the laser pulse (3 ns FWHM); it is caused by photoinduced electron ...

Functionalized Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Enhance Penetration into Melanoma Spheroids In Vivo through Angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Melanoma cell spheroid engraftment is optimized in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane overcoming the complexity of other in vivo models. Using this model, greater penetration of cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) functionalized with heparin in spheroids is observed via enhancement of vascularization than nanoceria alone.

Local Clustering and Global Spreading of Receptors for Optimal Spatial Gradient Sensing [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 134, 158401 (2025)
Spatial information from cell-surface receptors is crucial for processes that require signal processing and sensing of the environment. Here, we investigate the optimal placement of such receptors through a theoretical model that minimizes uncertainty in gradient estimation.

Self‐Healing Hydrogel Dressing with Solubilized Flavonoids for Whole Layer Regeneration of Diabetic Wound

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
High glucose‐ and acid‐responsive hydrogel with dynamic covalent bond solubilized with flavonoids (Gel‐Flavonoids) is designed for diabetic wound healing. The Gel‐Flavonoids adapt to irregular wound shapes and release antioxidants in high‐glucose environments, effectively reducing reactive oxygen species.

Off‐The‐Shelf Multivalent Nanoconjugate Cancer Vaccine Rescues Host Immune Response against Melanoma

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A star‐shaped cross‐linked polyglutamate (StCl) nanocarrier delivers melanoma‐associated peptide antigens via redox‐responsive linkers, inducing lymph node‐targeted antigen presentation. The nanoconjugate activates dendritic cells, promotes effector T‐cell responses, and enables tumor regression even in humanized patient‐derived preclinical models ...

Photo‐Induced Bandgap Engineering of Metal Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots In Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a photochemical synthetic route for bandgap engineering of metal halide perovskite quantum dots. Utilizing a material‐efficient microfluidic platform, the underlying mechanism of the photo‐induced anion exchange reaction (PIAER) of metal halide perovskite quantum dots is unveiled and first instance of the PIAER‐enabled synthesis of ...

SR-BI-directed HDL-cholesteryl ester hydrolysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
We have examined the metabolic fate of HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) delivered to cells expressing scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Comparison of SR-BI with a related class B scavenger receptor, CD36, showed a greater uptake and a more rapid and ...

Simple approach for calculating the binding free energy of a multivalent particle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a simple yet accurate numerical approach to compute the free energy of binding of multivalent objects on a receptor-coated surface. The method correctly accounts for the fact that one ligand can bind to at most one receptor. The numerical approach is based on a saddle-point approximation to the computation of a complex residue.
