Magnetotactic Bacteria AMB-1 with Active Deep Tumor Penetrability for NIR-II Photothermal Tumor Therapy.

The complex tumor structure and microenvironment such as abnormal tumor vasculature, dense tumor matrix, and elevated interstitial fluid pressure greatly hinder the penetration and retention of therapeutic agents in solid tumors. The development of an advanced method for robust penetration and retention of therapeutic agents in tumors is of great significance for efficient tumor treatments. In this work, we demonstrated that magnetotactic bacteria AMB-1 with hypoxic metabolism characteristics can actively penetrate the tumor to selectively colonize deep hypoxic regions, which emerge as a promising intelligent drug carrier.

Association between urinary organophosphate ester metabolite exposure and thyroid disease risk among US adults: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2014.

Background: Organophosphate esters (OPEs) may interfere with thyroid function, but the relationship between OPEs and thyroid disease remains unclear. This study aims to elucidate the relationship between OPEs exposure and thyroid disease risk in the general population in the United States.

Method: Data were obtained from the 2011-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey cycle.
