RESUMEN

Photo-responsive materials have garnered significant interest for their ability to react to non-contact stimuli, though achieving self-healing under gentle conditions remains an elusive goal. In this research, an innovative and straightforward approach for synthesizing silicone elastomers is proposed that not only self-heal at room temperature but also possess unique photochromic properties and adjustable mechanical strength, along with being both transparent and reprocessable. Initially, aldehyde-bifunctional dithiophene-ethylene molecules with dialdehyde groups (DTEM) and isocyanurate (IPDI) is introduced into the aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (H2N-PDMS-NH2) matrix. Subsequently, palladium is incorporated to enhance coordination within the matrix. These silicone elastomers transition to a blue state under 254 nm UV light and revert to transparency under 580 nm light. Remarkably, they demonstrate excellent thermal stability at temperatures up to 100 °C and show superior fatigue resistance. The optical switching capabilities of the silicone elastomers significantly affect both their mechanical characteristics and self-healing abilities. Notably, the PDMS-DTEM-IPDI-@Pd silicone elastomer, featuring closed-loop photo-switching molecules, exhibits a fracture toughness that is 1.3 times greater and a room temperature self-healing efficiency 1.4 times higher than its open-loop counterparts. This novel photo-responsive silicone elastomer offers promising potential for applications in data writing and erasure, UV protective coatings, and micro-trace development.

RESUMEN

Photoimmunotherapy represents an innovative approach to enhancing the efficiency of immunotherapy in cancer treatment. This approach involves the fusion of immunotherapy and phototherapy (encompassing techniques like photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT)). Boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) has the potential to trigger immunotherapy owing to its excellent PD and PT efficiency. However, the improvements in water solubility, bioavailability, PD/PT combined efficiency, and tumor tissue targeting of BODIPY require introduction of suitable carriers for potential practical application. Herein, a disulfide bond-based hollow mesoporous organosilica (HMON) with excellent biocompatibility and GSH-responsive degradation properties was used as a carrier to load a bithiophene Aza-BODIPY dye (B5), constructing a sample chemotherapy reagent-free B5@HMON nanoplatform achieving triple-synergistic photoimmunotherapy. HMON, involving disulfide bond, is utilized to improve water solubility, tumor tissue targeting, and PD efficiency by depleting GSH and enhancing host-guest interaction between B5 and HMO. The study reveals that HMON's large specific surface area and porous properties significantly enhance the light collection and oxygen adsorption capacity. The HMON's rich mesoporous structure and internal cavity achieved a loading rate of B5 at 11 %. It was found that the triple-synergistic nanoplatform triggered a stronger anti-tumor immune response, including tumor invasion, cytokine production, calreticulin translocation, and dendritic cell maturation, eliciting specific tumor-specific immunological responses in vivo and in vitro. The BALB/c mouse model with 4T1 tumors was used to assess tumor suppression efficiency in vivo, showing that almost all tumors in the B5@HMON group disappeared after 14 days. Such a simple chemotherapy reagent-free B5@HMON nanoplatform achieved triple-synergistic photoimmunotherapy.

RESUMEN

Conventional phototherapeutic agents are typically used in either photodynamic therapy (PDT) or photothermal therapy (PTT). However, efficacy is often hindered by hypoxia and elevated levels of heat shock proteins in the tumor microenvironment (TME). To address these limitations, a formylated, near-infrared (NIR)-absorbing and heavy-atom-free Aza-BODIPY dye is presented that exhibits both type-I and type-II PDT actions with a high yield of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and manifests efficient photothermal conversion by precise adjustments to the conjugate structure and electron distribution, leading to a large amount of ROS production even under severe hypoxia. To improve biosafety and water solubility, the dye with an amphiphilic triblock copolymer (Pluronic F-127), yielding BDP-6@F127 nanoparticles (NPs) is coated. Furthermore, inspired by the fact that phototherapy triggers the release of tumor-associated antigens, a strategy that leverages potential immune activation by combining PDT/PTT with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy to amplify the systemic immune response and achieve the much-desired abscopal effect is developed. In conclusion, this study presents a promising molecular design strategy that integrates multimodal therapeutics for a precise and effective approach to cancer therapy.

RESUMEN

Nitric oxide (NO) intervenes, that is, a potential treatment strategy, and has attracted wide attention in the field of tumor therapy. However, the therapeutic effect of NO is still poor, due to its short half-life and instability. Therapeutic concentration ranges of NO should be delivered to the target tissue sites, cell, and even subcellular organelles and to control NO generation. Mitochondria have been considered a major target in cancer therapy for their essential roles in cancer cell metabolism and apoptosis. In this study, mesoporous silicon-coated gold nanorods encapsulated with a mitochondria targeted and the thermosensitive lipid layer (AuNR@MSN-lipid-DOX) served as the carrier to load NO prodrug (BNN6) to build the near-infrared-triggered synergetic photothermal NO-chemotherapy platform (AuNR@MSN(BNN6)-lipid-DOX). The core of AuNR@MSN exhibited excellent photothermal conversion capability and high loading efficiency in terms of BNN6, reaching a high value of 220 mg/g (w/w), which achieved near-infrared-triggered precise release of NO. The outer biocompatible lipid layer, comprising thermosensitive phospholipid DPPC and mitochondrial-targeted DSPE-PEG2000-DOX, guided the whole nanoparticle to the mitochondria of 4T1 cells observed through confocal microscopy. In the mitochondria, the nanoparticles increased the local temperature over 42 °C under NIR irradiation, and a high NO concentration from BNN6 detected by the NO probe and DSPE-PEG2000-DOX significantly inhibited 4T1 cancer cells in vitro and in vivo under the synergetic photothermal therapy (PTT)-NO therapy-chemotherapy modes. The built NIR-triggered combination therapy nanoplatform can serve as a strategy for multimodal collaboration.

RESUMEN

AIM: To describe the clinical, electrophysiological, and genetic features of an unusual case with an RDH12 homozygous pathogenic variant and reviewed the characteristics of the patients reported with the same variant. METHODS: The patient underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination including best-corrected visual acuity, anterior segment and dilated fundus, visual field, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) and electroretinogram (ERG). The retinal disease panel genes were sequenced through chip capture high-throughput sequencing and Sanger sequencing was used to confirm the result. Then we reviewed the characteristics of the patients reported with the same variant. RESULTS: A 30-year male presented with severe early retinal degeneration who complained night blindness, decreased visual acuity, vitreous floaters and amaurosis fugax. The best corrected vision was 0.04 OD and 0.12 OS, respectively. The fundus photo and OCT showed bilateral macular atrophy but larger areas of macular atrophy in the left eye. Autofluorescence shows bilateral symmetrical hypo-autofluorescence. ERG revealed that the amplitudes of a- and b-wave were severely decreased. Multifocal ERG showed decreased amplitudes in the local macular area. A homozygous missense variant c.146C>T (chr14:68191267) was found. The clinical characteristics of a total of 13 patients reported with the same pathologic variant varied. CONCLUSION: An unusual patient with a homozygous pathogenic variant in the c.146C>T of RDH12 which causes late-onset and asymmetric retinal degeneration are reported. The clinical manifestations of the patient with multimodal retinal imaging and functional examinations have enriched our understanding of this disease.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The anterior clinoid process (ACP) is surrounded by nerves and vessels that, together, constitute an intricate anatomical structure with variations that challenges the performance of individualized anterior clinoidectomy in treating lesions with different extents of invasion. In the present study, we established a 6-surface system for the ACP based on anatomical landmarks and analyzed its value in guiding ACP drilling and resection of paraclinoid meningiomas. METHODS: Using the anatomical characteristics of 10 dry skull specimens, we set 9 anatomical landmarks to delineate the ACP into 6 surfaces. Guided by our 6-surface system and eggshell technique, 5 colored silicone-injected anatomical specimens were dissected via a frontotemporal craniotomy to perform anterior clinoidectomy. Next, 3 typical cases of paraclinoid meningioma were selected to determine the value of using our 6-surface system in tumor resection. RESULTS: Nine points (A-H and T) were proposed to delineate the ACP surface into frontal, temporal, optic nerve, internal carotid artery, cranial nerve III, and optic strut surfaces according to the adjacent tissues. Either intradurally or extradurally, the frontal and temporal surfaces could be identified and drilled into depth, followed by skeletonization of the optic nerve, cranial nerve III, internal carotid artery, and optic strut surfaces. After the residual bone was removed, the ACP was drilled off. In surgery of paraclinoid meningiomas, our 6-surface system provided great benefit in locating the dura, nerves, and vessels, thus, increasing the safety of opening the optic canal and relaxing the oculomotor or optic nerves and allowing for individualized ACP drilling for meningioma removal. CONCLUSIONS: Our 6-surface system adds much anatomical information to the classic Dolenc triangle and can help neurosurgeons, especially junior ones, to increase their understanding of the paraclinoid spatial structure and accomplish individualized surgical procedures with high safety and minimal invasiveness.

RESUMEN

Wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are attracting increasing attention because they play an irreplaceable role in tandem solar cells. Nevertheless, wide-bandgap PSCs suffer large open-circuit voltage (VOC ) loss and instability due to photoinduced halide segregation, significantly limiting their application. Herein, a bile salt (sodium glycochenodeoxycholate, GCDC, a natural product), is used to construct an ultrathin self-assembled ionic insulating layer firmly coating the perovskite film, which suppresses halide phase separation, reduces VOC loss, and improves device stability. As a result, 1.68 eV wide-bandgap devices with an inverted structure deliver a VOC of 1.20 V with an efficiency of 20.38%. The unencapsulated GCDC-treated devices are considerably more stable than the control devices, retaining 92% of their initial efficiency after 1392 h storage under ambient conditions and retaining 93% after heating at 65 °C for 1128 h in an N2 atmosphere. This strategy of mitigating ion migration via anchoring a nonconductive layer provides a simple approach to achieving efficient and stable wide-bandgap PSCs.

RESUMEN

The fact that multidrug resistance (MDR) could induce medical device-related infections, along with the invalidation of traditional antibiotics has become an intractable global medical issue. Therefore, there is a pressing need for innovative strategies of antibacterial functionalization of medical devices. For this purpose, a multimodal antibacterial coating that combines photothermal and photodynamic therapies (PTT/PDT) is developed here based on novel heavy atom-free photosensitizer compound, BDP-6 (a kind of boron-dipyrromethene). The photothermal conversion efficiency of BDP-6 is of 55.9%, which could improve biocompatibility during PTT/PDT process by reducing the exciting light power density. Furthermore, BDP-6, together with oxidized hyaluronic acid, is crosslinked with a natural polymer, gelatin, to fabricate a uniform coating (denoted as polyurethane (PU)-GHB) on the surface of polyurethane. PU-GHB has excellent synergistic in vitro PTT/PDT antibacterial performance against both susceptible bacteria and MDR bacteria. The antibacterial mechanisms are revealed as that hyperthermia could reduce the bacterial activity and enhance the permeability of inner membrane to reactive oxygen species by disturbing cell membrane. Meanwhile, in an infected abdominal wall hernia model, the notable anti-infection performance, good in vivo compatibility, and photoacoustic imaging property of PU-GHB are verified. A promising strategy of developing multifunctional antibacterial coatings on implanted medical devices is provided here.

RESUMEN

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is lethal but lacks effective therapies. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a central metabolite indispensable for a broader range of fundamental intracellular biological functions. Reduction of NAD+ usually occurs after acute brain insults, and supplementation of NAD+ has been proven neuroprotective. P7C3-A20 is a novel compound featuring its ability to facilitate the flux of NAD+. In this study, we sought to determine the potential therapeutic value of P7C3-A20 in ICH. In collagenase-induced ICH mouse models, we found that P7C3-A20 treatment could diminish lesion volume, reduce blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage, mitigate brain edema, attenuate neural apoptosis, and improve neurological outcomes after ICH. Further, RNA sequencing and subsequent experiments revealed that ICH-induced neuroinflammation and microglial proinflammatory activities were significantly suppressed following P7C3-A20 treatment. Mitochondrial damage is an important trigger of inflammatory response. We examined mitochondrial morphology and function and found that P7C3-A20 could attenuate OxyHb-induced impairment of mitochondrial dynamics and functions in vitro. Mechanistically, Sirt3, an NAD+-dependent deacetylase located in mitochondria, was then found to play a vital role in the protection of P7C3-A20 against mitochondrial damage and inflammatory response. In rescue experiments, P7C3-A20 failed to exert those protective effects in microglia-specific Sirt3 conditional knockout (CKO) mice. Finally, preclinical research revealed a correlation between the plasma NAD+ level and the neurological outcome in ICH patients. These results demonstrate that P7C3-A20 is a promising therapeutic agent for neuroinflammatory injury after ICH and exerts protective actions, at least partly, in a Sirt3-dependent manner.

RESUMEN

Defect passivation via post-treatment of perovskite films is an effective method to fabricate high-performance perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the passivation durability is still an issue due to the weak and vulnerable bonding between passivating functional groups and perovskite defect sites. Here we propose a cholesterol derivative self-assembly strategy to construct crosslinked and compact membranes throughout perovskite films. These supramolecular membranes act as a robust protection layer against harsh operational conditions while providing effective passivation of defects from surface toward inner grain boundaries. The resultant PSCs exhibit a power conversion efficiency of 23.34 % with an impressive open-circuit voltage of 1.164 eV. The unencapsulated devices retain 92 % of their initial efficiencies after 1600 h of storage under ambient conditions, and remain almost unchanged after heating at 85 °C for 500 h in a nitrogen atmosphere, showing significantly improved stability.

RESUMEN

Theranostic systems that permit both diagnosis and treatment in vivo are highly appealing means by which to meet the demands of precision medicine. However, most such systems remain subject to issues related to complex molecular design and synthesis, potential toxicity, and possible photoactivity changes. Herein, a novel supramolecular theranostic strategy involving biomarker protein activation (BPA) and a host-guest strategy is proposed. To exemplify BPA, a facile "one-for-all" nanotheranostic agent for both albumin detection and cancer treatment is demonstrated, which utilizes a nanoparticulate heavy-atom-free BODIPY dye derivative (B4 NPs). The fluorescence and photoactivity of BODIPY dyes are completely suppressed by aggregation-induced self-quenching in the nanoparticulate state. However, a Balb/c nude mouse model is used to confirm that following the disassembly of injected B4 NPs, BODIPY specifically binds albumin in vivo, accompanied by significantly enhanced biocompatibility and photothermal conversion efficiency. More importantly, this supramolecular host-guest BPA strategy enables the resultant nanoplatform to act as a facile and efficient strategy for photodynamic and photothermal immunotherapy.

RESUMEN

Diarylethene (DAE) photoswitch is a new and promising family of photochromic molecules and has shown superior performance as a smart trigger in stimulus-responsive materials. During the past few decades, the DAE family has achieved a leap from simple molecules to functional molecules and developed toward validity as a universal switching building block. In recent years, the introduction of DAE into an assembly system has been an attractive strategy that enables the photochromic behavior of the building blocks to be manifested at the level of the entire system, beyond the DAE unit itself. This assembly-based strategy will bring many unexpected results that promote the design and manufacture of a new generation of advanced materials. Here, recent advances in the design and fabrication of diarylethene as a trigger in materials science, chemistry, and biomedicine are reviewed.

RESUMEN

Azobenzene is a well-known derivative of stimulus-responsive molecular switches and has shown superior performance as a functional material in biomedical applications. The results of multiple studies have led to the development of light/hypoxia-responsive azobenzene for biomedical use. In recent years, long-wavelength-responsive azobenzene has been developed. Matching the longer wavelength absorption and hypoxia-response characteristics of the azobenzene switch unit to the bio-optical window results in a large and effective stimulus response. In addition, azobenzene has been used as a hypoxia-sensitive connector via biological cleavage under appropriate stimulus conditions. This has resulted in on/off state switching of properties such as pharmacology and fluorescence activity. Herein, recent advances in the design and fabrication of azobenzene as a trigger in biomedicine are summarized.

RESUMEN

The development of activatable photosensitizers to allow for the reversible control of singlet oxygen (1O2) production for photodynamic therapy (PDT) faces great challenges. Fortunately, the flourishing field of supramolecular biotechnology provides more effective strategies for activatable PDT systems. Here, we developed a new reversible PDT on a switch that controls the 1O2 generation of self-assembled albumin nanotheranostics in vitro and in vivo. A new molecular design principle of aggregation-induced self-quenching photochromism and albumin on-photoswitching was demonstrated using a new asymmetric, synthetic diarylethene moiety DIA. The photosensitizer porphyrin and DIA were incorporated as building blocks in a glutaraldehyde-induced covalent albumin cross-linking nanoplatform, HSA-DIA-porphyrin nanoparticles (NPs). More importantly, the excellent photoswitching property of DIA enables the resultant nanoplatform to act as a facile, switchable strategy for photodynamic-immunotherapy.

RESUMEN

Organic-inorganic hybrid materials have drawn increasing attention as photothermal agents in tumor therapy due to the advantages of green synthesis, high loading efficiency of hydrophobic drugs, facile incorporation of theranostic iron, and excellent photothermal efficiency without inert components or additives. Herein, we proposed a strategy for biomimetic engineering-mediated enhancement of photothermal performance in the tumor microenvironment (TME). This strategy is based on the specific characteristics of organic-inorganic hybrid materials and endows these materials with homologous targeting ability and photothermal stability in the TME. The hybrid materials perform the functions of cancer cells to target homolytic tumors (acting as "artificial nanotargeted cells (ANTC)"). Inspired by the pH-dependent disassembly behaviors of tannic acid (TA) and ferric ion (FeIII) and subsequent attenuation of photothermal performance, cancer cell membranes were self-deposited onto the surfaces of protoporphyrin-encapsulated TA and FeIII nanoparticles to achieve ANTC with TME-stable photothermal performance and tumor-specific phototherapy. The resulting ANTC can be used as contrast agents for concurrent photoacoustic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and photothermal imaging to guide the treatment. Importantly, the high loading efficiency of protoporphyrin enables the initiation of photodynamic therapy to enhance photothermal therapeutic efficiency, providing antitumor function with minimal side effects.

RESUMEN

To explore a new technique of planting wheat with high yield and efficiency by mulching technology in rain-fed semiarid regions in Northwest China, a two-year fixed-site trail was conducted during 2013-2015. There were five mulching modes: (1) three sowing rows by bundled straw mul-ching with alternating 30-cm-wide mulching belt and planting belt (SM1), (2) four sowing rows by bundled straw mulching with alternating 40-cm-wide mulching belt and planting belt with (SM2), (3) five sowing rows by bundled straw mulching with alternating 50-cm-wide mulching belt and planting belt (SM3), (4) whole plastic film mulching with dibbling (PMF), (5) bare field planting without any mulching (CK). We examined the effects of different mulching modes on water consumption, water use efficiency (WUE), and yield of winter wheat in rain-fed region in Northwest China. The results showed that bundled straw mulching significantly increased soil water storage. Soil water storage with bundled straw mulching was remarkably higher than that with the whole plastic mul-ching with SM1>SM2>SM3. Soil water storage at 0-200 cm soil layer in flowering period was increased by 15.4%-20.8%,11.2%-14.7%and 10.1%-14.5% respectively over that in the bare field. Bundled straw mulching significantly increased water consumption during the whole growing period while reduced water consumption from sowing and flowering periods. Further, it increased water consumption from flowering to maturity periods and the ratio of water consumption during this period to the total water consumption during the whole growing periods. The results showed that mulching could increase the consumption ratio of deep water storage from the soil layer below 120 cm. Compared with CK, PMF and SM significantly increased grain yield and water use efficiency by 11.9%-19.5%, 26.9%-27.1%, respectively, and increased water use efficiency by 9.8%-13.9%, 18.4%-22.0% respectively. In all, bundled straw mulching could reduce water consumption ratio in the early growing periods, improve moisture condition, increase grain yield and water use efficiency of winter wheat. Therefore, we concluded that bundled straw mulching is an environment-friendly cultivation technology suitable for the winter wheat in semi-arid region of the Loess Plateau in Northwest China.

RESUMEN

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a complex neurovascular syndrome with high disability and mortality. SAH patients may be managed with surgical clipping or coil embolization. In this study, we provided a real-world analysis of the outcome and prognostic factors of aneurysmal SAH in patients treated with coil embolization or microsurgical clipping.We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of aneurysmal SAH patients (n = 583) who underwent treatment at the First Hospital and the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, and Tangshan Worker's Hospital in China. All patients were evaluated by a combined neurosurgery and interventional neuroradiology team. Microsurgical aneurysmal clipping was performed using the skull base approach, while coil embolization was performed with bare platinum coils (with or without balloon assistance). The primary outcome was the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score at discharge.A total of 583 patients were included in this study, of which 397 (68.1%) of them underwent clipping and 186 (31.9%) received coil embolization. The patient cohort consisted of both poor grade and good grade aneurysmal SAH: 441 (75.6%) patients had good-grade (Hunt and Hess grade II or III) and 142 (24.4%) had poor grade (Hunt and Hess grade IV or V). Overall, 123 (21%) patients had unfavorable neurologic outcome (GOS score 1-3) and 460 (78.9%) patients had favorable neurologic outcome (GOS score 4 or 5). The mean GOS score at discharge was comparable for patients who underwent clipping and those received coil embolization (P > .05). Multivariate analysis showed that clipping only [OR (95%CI): 0.03 (0.01, 0.36); P = .000] and clipping with CSF drainage [OR (95%CI): 0.41 (0.18, 0.89); P = .001] were independent factors of a favorable outcome in patients with aneurysmal SAH. Coil embolization with hematoma removal [OR (95%CI): 0.03 (0.01, 0.36); P = .000] was also an independent determinant of a favorable outcome. High baseline Fisher grades were associated with significantly increased risk of an unfavorable outcome [OR (95%CI): 2.08 (1.30, 3.33); P = .002].Our findings suggested that both coil embolization and microsurgical clipping are viable treatment options for aneurysmal SAH patients. Procedures, such as CSF drainage and hematoma removal, performed in parallel with coil embolization and chipping should be considered when treating individual patients.
