With the rapid development of autonomous and intelligent devices driven by soft actuators, ion soft actuators in flexible intelligent devices have several advantages over other actuators, including their light weight, low voltage drive, large strain, good flexibility, fast response, etc. Traditional ionic polymer metal composites have received a lot of attention over the past decades, but they suffer...
Combinational Photothermal‐Immunotherapy
In article number 2206441, Longjiang Zhang, Peng Huang, Zhongqiu Wang, and co‐workers load dual‐immune inhibitors nanomodulators for combinational photothermal‐immunotherapy through regulating abnormal enzymatic metabolism of IDO, blocking PD‐L1/PD‐1 and CD47/SIRPα to reverse immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and prevent tumor growth and re‐challenge...
Although photothermal therapy (PTT) can noninvasively kill tumor cells and exert synergistic immunological effects, the immune responses are usually harmed due to the lack of cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) pre‐infiltration and co‐existing of intricate immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), including the programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD‐L1)/cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47)/regulatory T cells...
Developing various nanocomposite microwave absorbers is a crucial means to address the issue of electromagnetic pollution, but remains a challenge in satisfying broadband absorption at low thickness with dielectric loss materials. Herein, an ultra‐broadband microwave metamaterial absorber (MMA) based on hollow carbon/MXene/Mo2C (HCMM) is fabricated by a multi‐scale design strategy. The microscopic...
Natural bacteria are interesting subjects for cancer treatments owing to their unique autonomy‐driven and hypoxic target properties. Genetically modified bacteria (such as bacteria with msbB gene and aroA gene modifications) can effectively cross sophisticated physiological barriers and transport antitumor agents into deep tumor tissues, and they have good biosafety. Additionally, bacteria can secrete...
The ever‐growing portable electronics and electric vehicle draws the attention of scaling up of energy storage systems with high areal‐capacity. The concept of thick electrode designs has been used to improve the active mass loading toward achieving high overall energy density. However, the poor rate capabilities of electrode material owing to increasing electrode thickness significantly affect the...
