Although many studies discussing PC formation have focused on inert proteins that may inhibit the function of nanomaterials, some functional plasma proteins with intrinsic targeting capabilities can also be adsorbed to the surface of nanomaterials, with active ligand properties to improve the targeting ability. In this approach, nanomaterials are surface-engineered to promote the adsorption of specific functional plasma proteins that are directly targeted to transport nanomaterials to the target site. In this study, T<sub>10</sub> peptide-modified liposomes were employed to construct an <i>in situ</i> transferrin (Tf) PC-mediated liposome carrying a hypoxia-sensitive chemotherapy drug (tirapazamine, TPZ) and a photosensitizer (indocyanine green, IR820). The water-soluble drug TPZ was encapsulated in mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and coated with IR820 (IR)-loaded liposome. Lipid-coated MSNs can inhibit aggregation in the body and significantly reduce the rapid release of water-soluble drugs, resulting in improved system stability and sustained release. Upon entering the <i>in vivo</i> circulation, T<sub>10</sub> bound specifically to Tf in plasma to form an <i>in situ</i> Tf liposome–PC complex with enhanced targeting efficacy compared to traditional ligand-modified active-targeting strategies. However, large-sized PC particles faced challenges in penetrating deep into tumor tissues. IR could kill tumors through photodynamic therapy (PDT) and elicit complementary antitumor effects with the hypoxia-sensitive drug TPZ. This study demonstrates the novel design of <i>in situ</i> PC-mediated multifunctional liposomes for hypoxia-activated chemotherapy combined with PDT, a promising approach to cancer therapy.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it remains challenging to develop materials with high porosity, high diversity of functional groups within the pores, and guest-adaptive tunability. Furthermore, it is challenging to capture large catalysts such as enzymes within porous materials. Protein-based materials are promising candidates to overcome these limitations, owing to their large pore sizes and potential for stimuli-responsive adaptability. In this work, hydrogel beads were generated from cross-linked lysozyme crystals. These swellable lysozyme cross-linked crystals (SLCCs) expand more than 10 mL per gram of crystal following a simple treatment in ethanol, followed by the addition of water. SLCCs are sensitive to the solution environment and change their extent of swelling from adjusting the concentration and identity of the ions in the solution, or by changing the flexibility of the protein backbone, such as adding dithiothreitol to reduce the protein disulfide bonds. SLCCs can adsorb a wide range of catalysts ranging from transition metal complexes to large biomacromolecules, such as the 160 kDa enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx). Transition metal catalysts and enzymes captured within SLCCs maintained their catalytic activity and exhibited minimal leaching. We performed a cascade reaction by adsorbing GOx and the transition metal catalyst Fe-TAML into SLCCs, resulting in enhanced activity compared to a free-floating reaction. SLCCs offer a promising combination of attributes as scaffolds for multicatalytic reactions, including gram-scale batch preparation, tunable expansion to greater than 20-fold in volume, guest-responsive adaptable behavior, and facile capture of a wide array of small molecule and enzyme-catalysts.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work reveals the effects of filler modification and orientation on thermal duction in the boron nitride (BN)/hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) through multiscale simulation approaches. Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) identifies that the thermal conductivity of the BN molecule is not size-dependent and proves that thermal resistance is dramatically reduced after hydroxylation modification (BN<sub>OH</sub>). Finite element simulation (FEM) reveals that maintaining a proper tilt of BN may improve both the cross-plane and in-plane thermal conductivity of the composite. Experimentally, BN<sub>OH</sub>/HEC composites with high self-viscosity are prepared via a “moisture-activated” strategy, for which the introduction of BN<sub>OH</sub> and wet hot pressing contribute to the thermal resistance reduction and filler orientation, respectively. The in-plane thermal conductivity reaches 30.64 W/mK with a cross-plane thermal conductivity of 5.06 W/mK. The films show good adaptability to surface morphology with the thermal resistance decreasing to 1.42 K·cm<sup>2</sup>/W.

In this study, we reported a novel chiral organic donor–acceptor cocrystal based on asymmetrical components of benzo(<i>b</i>)naphtho(1,2-<i>d</i>)thiophene (BNT) and 9-oxo-9H-indeno(1,2-<i>b</i>)pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile (DCAF) that exhibited red emission using a simple solution approach. During the self-assembly, a kinetically controlled growth of polar solvent or substrate induction led to the chiral packing and helical morphology twisted by the cooperation of electrostatic potential energy and chirality. Intriguingly, a “seeding-control” mechanism was newly developed for the production of <i>c</i>-BNT–DCAF helical crystals with a defined uniform chiral form, which enables chirality transfer and amplification from the microscopic to macroscopic level via supramolecular stacking. By introducing chiral additives or even a small break at the edge, the first nucleus acted as a chiral seeding to guide the donor/acceptor molecule alignment into the same handedness. A remarkably high dissymmetry factor (<i>g</i><sub>lum</sub>) value of 0.1 was demonstrated on the chiral manipulated ribbons, which is the highest among the reported charge-transfer complexes. This work offers us more paths for the design of chiral supramolecular systems for vital applications in organic optoelectronics, micro/nanomechanics, and biomimetics.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this regard, composite scaffolds offer a strategy to integrate the desired functionalities. These scaffolds are expected to provide sufficient cellular activities while maintaining the required strength necessary for the bone repair for which they are intended. Hence, attempts to obtain efficient composites are growing. However, in most cases, the conventional production methods of scaffolds are energy-intensive and leave an impact on the environment. This work aims to develop a biocomposite scaffold integrating bacterial cellulose (BC), hydroxyapatite (HAp), and graphene oxide (GO), designated as “BC/HAp/GO”. All components are sourced primarily from agricultural and food waste as alternative means. BC, known for its biocompatibility, fine fiber network, and high porosity, serves as an ideal scaffold material. HAp, a naturally occurring bone component, contributes osteoconductive properties, while GO provides mechanical strength and biofunctionalization capabilities. The biomaterials were analyzed and characterized using a scanning electron microscope, a X-ray diffractometer, and a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. The produced biocomposite scaffolds were tested for thermal stability, mechanical strength, and biocompatibility. The results showed a nanofibrous, porous network of BC, highly crystalline HAp particles, and well-oxygenated GO flakes with slight structural deformities. The synthesized biocomposite demonstrated promising characteristics, such as increased tensile strength due to added GO particles and higher bioactivity through the introduction of HAp. These inexpensively synthesized materials, marked by suitable surface morphology and cell adhesion properties, open potential applications in bone repair and regeneration.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142849747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These properties promote gas trapping and cavitation nucleation, significantly lowering the US cavitation threshold and resulting in selective destruction of cancer cells in the presence of nanoparticles. Efficient internalization of αϕ-pSiNPs in cell cytoplasm was demonstrated by their intrinsic photoluminescence, activated by partial oxidation of mesoporous silicon films in borate solutions, which resulted in quantum confinement of excitons in 2–5 nm Si quantum dots/wires. Combined with US exposure above the cavitation threshold, αϕ-pSiNPs caused a significant decrease in cell viability through mechanical stretching and microflows generated by oscillating microbubbles. Meanwhile, αϕ-pSiNPs exhibit high biocompatibility up to concentrations of 1 mg/mL without US activation. Their photoluminescent properties facilitate bioimaging, while their US contrast capabilities may enhance both imaging and therapy.

A tantalum–copper diffusion layer with high vacancy concentration was prepared on the copper surface. This layer demonstrates superior hydrogen trapping and diffusion resistance compared to pure tantalum, though the underlying mechanism remains unclear. First-principles DFT methods were employed to investigate the absorption of hydrogen atoms by tantalum and copper vacancies, forming vacancy-hydrogen complexes, and their diffusion characteristics. These were compared with interstitial configurations. The ground state formation energy is lowest when a tantalum vacancy captures six hydrogen atoms. It can accommodate up to 12 hydrogen atoms while maintaining a higher energy than the interstitial configuration, forming a spherical structure with special symmetry. For copper vacancies, the formation energy remains higher than the interstitial configuration when capturing up to six hydrogen atoms. The high-vacancy diffusion layer exhibits a strong hydrogen trapping capacity. Posthydrogen capture, the overall migration energy for both tantalum and copper vacancies exceeds 2.5 eV. The energy barrier for individual hydrogen atom diffusion outward is higher than in interstitial cases when capturing up to six hydrogen atoms. Vacancies capturing hydrogen atoms play a role in maintaining the stability of hydrogen in its ground state.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142858224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
