Polymer-based nanomotors are attracting increasing interest in the biomedical field due to their microscopic size and kinematic properties which support overcoming biological barriers, completing cellular uptake and targeted blasting in limited spaces. However, their applications are limited by the complex viscous physiological environment and lack of sufficient biocompatibility. This manuscript firstly reports a natural melanin nano-missile of MNP@HA-EDA@Urease@AIE PS (MHUA) based on photothermally accelerated urease-driven to achieve chemodrug-free phototherapy.

When adjusting the industrial structure, changes in the input and output of industrial sectors in one region may cause changes in industrial sectors of other regions, resulting in inter-regional industrial linkages. What is the impact of industrial structure adjustment on the linkages, and how does it impact climate change? The modified gravity model combines the influence and inductive coefficients to build the carbon emission industrial spatial linkage network (ISL) using social network analysis (SNA) in this work with the data of China's 2008-2019 provincial carbon emissions.

However, there is a rebound effect of carbon emissions during the industrial structure transformation. Resource dependence and technological progress have significant impacts on industrial structure transformation and its carbon reduction effect.

Enzyme-powered nanomotors with active motion have opened a new door in design of biocompatible drug delivery systems for cancer treatment. However, the movement of them still faces huge challenges due to the viscous physiological environment. To address this issue, we developed a photothermal interference (PTI) urease-modified polydopamine (PDA) nanomotor (PDA@HSA@Ur) for deeper-penetration of doxorubicin (DOX) through improved motion.

However, their treatment efficiency is restricted by the phase transition time. In this study, we developed a photothermal synergistic chitosan-based temperature-sensitive hydrogel, h-EGF-CS/β-GP-MPDA@Cip, with the unique properties of rapid phase transition and drug release under near-infrared light (NIR).
