Brain diseases pose significant treatment challenges due to the restrictive nature of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Recent advances in targeting macromolecules offer promising avenues for overcoming these obstacles through receptor-mediated transcytosis (RMT). We summarize the current progress in targeting brain drug delivery with macromolecules for brain diseases.

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has revolutionized the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), markedly improving patient outcomes. Despite technological advancements, pharmacological innovations, and refined interventional techniques, STEMI prognosis remains burdened by a persistent incidence of cardiac death and heart failure (HF), with mortality rates plateauing over the last decade. This review examines current practices in primary PCI, focusing on critical factors influencing patient outcomes.

Fibroin, a protein extracted from silk, offers advantageous properties such as non-immunogenicity, biocompatibility, and ease of surface modification, which have been widely utilized for a variety of biomedical applications. However, in vivo studies have revealed critical challenges, including rapid enzymatic degradation and limited stability. To widen the scope of this natural biomacromolecule, the grafting of polymers onto the protein surface has been advanced as a platform to enhance protein stability and develop smart conjugates.

The photocatalytic oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) on metal-loaded one-dimensional TiO nanowires (TiO NWs) was performed. With metal loading, the electric and optical properties of TiO NWs were adjusted, contributing to the improvement of the activity and selectivity of the OCM reaction. In the photocatalytic OCM reaction, the 1.
