Ex Vivo Evaluation of Poly(Solketal Acrylate) Nanoparticles for Intravitreal Drug Delivery to the Posterior Eye Segment

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Nile Red‐loaded poly(solketal acrylate) nanoparticles enable fluorescence tracking and exhibit nontoxic profiles in retinal cells. Enhanced cellular uptake and deep retinal penetration after intravitreal injection highlight their excellent potential for targeted ocular drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye.

Sexual reproduction in invasive Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) in south Sweden

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
To understand the potential for northward expansion of knotweeds into currently uninvaded regions, it is crucial to assess the potential for sexual reproduction alongside the ongoing vegetative spread. For that reason, we tested viability in Reynoutria japonica seeds in south Sweden, a region where viable seeds had not been previously reported ...

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Toxicity of aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. about Euphorbia heterophylla L.

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous extracts of Ilex paraguariensis A.St.‐Hil. strongly inhibit Euphorbia heterophylla L. germination and early seedling growth, but show mild phytotoxicity on mature plants, paradoxically promoting biomass via antioxidants. Abstract BACKGROUND The escalating challenge of herbicide‐resistant weeds, exemplified by Euphorbia heterophylla L.

Indocyanine Green–Inspired Polymeric Chromophores With Intrinsic Photostability for Near‐Infrared Imaging

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Indocyanine green (ICG) is widely used for near‐infrared imaging but suffers from poor photostability. Here, an indocyanine green–inspired polymeric NIR chromophore is introduced, exhibiting intrinsically enhanced photostability and biocompatibility.

Photo‐induced proton release of spiropyran‐derived nanomaterials for mRNA delivery in hard‐to‐transfect cells

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Light‐induced proton release from spiropyran can disrupt the stability of both nanoparticles and endosomal membranes, thereby promoting endosomal escape and ultimately enhancing transfection performance. Abstract Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapy has been explored as a treatment for various genetic disorders. Significant progress has been made in developing

Rational Design and Development of Organic Afterglow Nanoparticles for Image‐Guided Interventions

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
This review outlines the rational design, synthesis, and standardized characterization of organic afterglow nanoparticles for biomedical imaging and therapy. Mechanistic insights into chemically initiated electron exchange luminescence and reactive oxygen species‐mediated processes are connected to molecular engineering and nanoparticle fabrication ...
