Environmental plastic wastes are potential health hazards due to their prevalence as well as their versatility in initiating physical, chemical, and biological interactions and transformations. Indeed, recent research has implicated the adverse effects of micro‐ and nano‐plastics, including their neurotoxicity, yet how plastic particulates may impact the aggregation pathway and toxicity of amyloid...
Bacterial therapy is an emerging hotspot in tumor immunotherapy, which can initiate antitumor immune activation through multiple mechanisms. Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), a pathogenic bacterium inhabiting the oral cavity, contains a great deal of pathogen associated molecular patterns that can activate various innate immune cells to promote antitumor immunity. Owing to the presence of protoporphyrin...
The catalytic oxidation of toxic organic pollutants in water requires enhanced efficiency for commercial applications. A ZnO nanorod array grown on a carbon fiber cloth (CFC) serves as the zinc source to ensure that the Ni/ZIF‐8/ZnO nanoreactor is constructed. The Ni/ZIF‐8/ZnO/CFC nanoreactor efficiently activates peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for bisphenol A (BPA) degradation owing to its high density...
Eco/Bioresorbable Electronics
In article number 2305017, John A. Rogers and co‐workers use a sewing approach for fabricating eco/bioresorbable electronics without the need for high temperatures or reactive solvents. Microscale eco/bioresorbable materials in the format of fibers and films are used for “embroidery work”, with versatile capabilities in forming eco/bioresorbable stretchable interconnects,...
Eco/bioresorbable electronics represent an emerging class of technology defined by an ability to dissolve or otherwise harmlessly disappear in environmental or biological surroundings after a period of stable operation. The resulting devices provide unique capabilities as temporary biomedical implants, environmental sensors, and related systems. Recent publications report schemes to overcome challenges...
Three linear isoelectronic conjugated polymers PCC, PBC, and PBN are synthesized by Suzuki‐Miyaura polycondensation for photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) production from water. PBN presented an excellent photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate (HER) of 223.5 µmol h−1 (AQY420 = 23.3%) under visible light irradiation, which is 7 times that of PBC and 31 times that of PCC. The enhanced photocatalytic activity...
Materials are more easily damaged during accidents that involve rapid deformation. Here, a design strategy is described for electronic materials comprised of conducting polymers that defies this orthodox property, making their extensibility and toughness dynamically adaptive to deformation rates. This counterintuitive property is achieved through a morphology of interconnected nanoscopic core–shell...
Although photodynamic immunotherapy has been promoted in the clinical practice of cholangiocarcinoma, the insensitivity to photodynamic immunotherapy remains to be a great problem. This can be largely attributed to an immune‐suppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) manifested as immature myeloid cells and exhausted cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Here, a three‐in‐one oncolytic adenovirus system PEG‐PEI‐Adv‐Catalase‐KillerRed...
Thermochromic smart windows with rational modulation in indoor temperature and brightness draw considerable interest in reducing building energy consumption, which remains a huge challenge to meet the comfortable responsive temperature and the wide transmittance modulation range from visible to near‐infrared (NIR) light for their practical application. Herein, a novel thermochromic Ni(II) organometallic...
