Intratumoral Administration of Recombinant Murine Interleukin‐12 Prevents Tumor Progression and Bone Invasion

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) frequently invades the mandibular bone, leading to metastasis and poor prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of locally administered interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) using an immunocompetent mouse model mimicking the clinical features of mandibular bone invasion. Methods The effects

Early oxidation‐related changes in aqueous humor following eye exposure to ultraviolet‐A radiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UVA exposure induces early oxidative alterations in the aqueous humor, disrupting its antioxidant balance. Levels of ascorbic acid, reduced glutathione (GSH), and the GSH/GSSG ratio decrease, while oxidized glutathione (GSSG), S‐glutathionylated proteins (PSSG), and malondialdehyde (MDA), a lipid peroxidation by‐product, increase.

SERS Facemask for Rapid and Portable Sensing Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Antigens for TB Screening

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 49, 3 September 2026.
Our study introduced an Au─Ag embedded covalent organic framework (U@COF) ‐mediated facemask for sensing TB antigen ESAT‐6/CFP‐10 complex in clinical droplet samples toward TB screening. Practical analysis of clinical samples demonstrated the availability of our facemask, which is capable of identifying the TB subjects (N = 17) from healthy candidates (
