Identification of OCTA Biomarkers and Cutoff Values Associated with Disease Severity in Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Ophthalmology and Therapy
Introduction Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) enables noninvasive assessment of retinal and choroidal microvasculature and may provide quantitative biomarkers of disease severity in dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Charge‐Reversed Lipid Nanoparticles Enable Encapsulation of Pt2L4 Nanocages for In vivo Anti‐Cancer Treatment

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Charge‐reversed lipid nanoparticles (revLNPs) enable efficient encapsulation and delivery of cationic Pt2L4 nanocages. Encapsulation preserves potent anticancer activity while improving circulation, reducing vascular leakage, and promoting favorable biodistribution in vivo.

Methanesulfonic Acid as a Dual‐Role Reagent for Porous Polymer Network Design

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The design of porous polymer networks (PPNs) using methanesulfonic acid (MSA) as a dual‐role reagent facilitates the synthesis of robust PPNs for specific applications. It also makes the scale‐up process techno‐economically feasible because MSA functions simultaneously as both a solvent and a catalyst for the reaction.

Biomass DNA: An Emerging Building Block for Advanced Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Biomass DNA is rapidly emerging from its traditional role as a genetic blueprint to serve as a versatile abundant, highly programmable polymeric building block. This review highlights the transformation of macroscopic bulk biomass DNA into next generation of functional materials, spanning from dynamic hydrogels, sustainable bioplastics, and high ...

Mechanoactive Biomaterials for Cell–Matrix Mechanotransduction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how individual triggers (force, light, or temperature) and combined optothermal or receptor‐targeted actuation induce material responses at the tissue, cellular, and receptor scales. Their spatial (global or focused) and temporal (continuous or cyclic) modulation determines the resulting mechanical output.

Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...

Amphiphilic Non‐Isocyanate Polyurethane Coatings With Tunable Antifouling and Fouling‐Release Performance: A Log‐Ratio Assessment Framework

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic non‐isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) coatings containing reactive hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and hydrophilic methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG) prepolymers for marine antifouling (AF) and fouling‐release (FR) applications were investigated. The coatings were evaluated with a set of representative marine foulants.
