Here we propose facile and scalable synthesis of two-dimensional (2D) dendritic platinum nanoparticle at room temperature by exploiting an oil-in-water emulsion. The interfacial synthesis selectively provides platinum nanoparticle with 2D structure in high yield by controlling key reactants such as the amount of oleic acid and the concentration of block copolymer. Electrocatalytic activity of 2D dendritic platinum nanoparticle for oxygen reduction and methanol oxidation reaction is also examined.

Recent research has demonstrated that activating the cGAS-STING pathway can enhance interferon production and the activation of T cells. A manganese complex, called TPA-Mn, was developed in this context. The reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive nanoparticles (NPMn) loaded with TPA-Mn are developed.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is characterized by the absence of estrogen and progesterone receptors, and lack of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has demonstrated promising efficacy in treating TNBC. This study explored the mechanisms of pachymic acid (PA) on TNBC by merging network pharmacology with experimental validation.

Beyond their classical role as cytotoxics, Platinum (Pt) coordination complexes recently joined the selected group of transition metals capable of performing bioorthogonal reactions in living environments. To minimize their reactivity towards nucleophiles, which limit their catalytic performance, we investigated the use of Pt(0) with different forms, sizes and surface functionalization. We report herein the development of PEGylated Pt nanodendrites with the capacity to activate prodyes and prodrugs in cell culture and in vivo.

Cisplatin is a platinum-based drug that is frequently used to treat multiple tumors. The anti-tumor effect of cisplatin is closely related to the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), which includes several immune cell types, such as the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs), dendritic cells (DCs), myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), regulatory T cells (Tregs), and natural killer (NK) cells. The interaction between these immune cells can promote tumor survival and chemoresistance, and decrease the efficacy of cisplatin monotherapy.

Platinum (Pt)-based anticancer agents exhibit a lack of selectivity in the treatment of osteosarcoma, resulting in significant toxicity. Furthermore, immune surveillance withinthe tumor microenvironment impedes the uptake of platinum drugs by osteosarcoma cells. To overcome these challenges, an oxaliplatin-based Pt prodrug amphiphile (Lipo-OXA-ALN) was designed and synthesized by incorporatingan osteosarcoma-targeting alendronate (ALN) alongside a lipid tail.
